This thesis study focuses on the development of a utility tool for the analysis of eye-tracking data recorded on interactive web maps. The tool simplifies the labour-intensive task of frame-by-frame analysis of screen recordings with overlaid eye-tracking data in the current eye-tracking eco-systems. The tool's main functionality is to convert the screen coordinates of participant's gaze to real world coordinates and allow exports in commonly used spatial data formats. This study explores the existing state-of-art in an eye-tracking analysis of dynamic cartographic products as well as the research and technology aiming at improving the analysis techniques. The product of this thesis, called ET2Spatial, is tested in depth in terms of performance and accuracy. Several use-case scenarios of the tool are demonstrated in the evaluation section, and the capabilities of GIS software for visualizing and analysing eye-tracking data are investigated. The tool and associated pilot studies aim to enhance the research capabilities in the field of eye-tracking in Geovisualization.

The aim of the thesis is to develop a tool that will allow recording eye-movement data during observation of an interactive web map. The tool will convert the eye-tracker?s coordinates into real-world coordinates. It will allow geolocating the gaze position and ease the analysis of eye-tracking data, which has to be done manually so far. The functionality of the tool will be proven on the example of several case studies. E.g. free-viewing, task solving with the map, digitalization using the sight etc. The output of the thesis will be the developed tool as well as the results of case studies. The student will attach all the collected datasets and all the animations to the thesis in digital form. The student will create a website about the thesis following the rules available on the department?s website and a poster about the diploma thesis in A2 format. The student will submit entire text (text, attachments, poster, outputs, input and output data) in digital form on a storage medium and the text of the thesis in two bound copies to the secretary of the department.
