Stability Determination of the Surface Area of the Prague Castle by the Periodically Measured Levelling Network and Robust Analysis

In the area of Prague Castle there is already about 10 years of periodical measurement ofthe height changes in the buildings and structures being performed. The measurementmethod is precise levelling predominantly. Until now, these measurements have beenevaluated only locally with respect to each building and its stability without an overall viewof the situation of possible movements of individual parts of the surface Prague Castle.Whereas there are height shift of some points between epochs undoubtedly, a new andcomplete adjustment of each measured epoch and mutual assessment of changes betweenepochs using robust analysis was conducted. This comparison shows the relative movementof certain parts against another. The results are consistent with current knowledge of thegeology in the area of the Prague Castle.
