  8. Categorization of articles • Research articles (containing related theory, methodology, empirical part, discussion and conclusions) • Editorials (introductory parts of special numbers) • Research notes (primary theoretical overview articles) • Short communications (articles which are not fully theoretically based but they deliver interesting empirical or practical knowledge – not very known regions, new problems, implementation etc.)

  9. Initial evaluation • In order to eliminate papers of lower quality or to order them to the respective category, the initial evaluation should be improved • Necessary assumptions of a research paper: • Coincidence with the aim and scope of the Journal • The structure of a scientific paper (recommended in the instructions); the aim of the article and research questions are clearly defined • Sufficient embedding in the scientific literature (journals in Web of Knowledge and SCOPUS) • Possible suggestions: to accept for a review as a research paper, to reject, to order within a different category

  10. Evaluation process • On-line process • Initial evaluation (the reporter + Advisory Board members) within 7 days • Suggestion of reviewers (the executive board + the reporter) approved by the Executive Board (conflict of interests, further suggestions) within 3 working days • Review process within 21 days, repeated if necessary • Revised version as a rule • Definitive acceptance (the reporter + Advisory Board members) within 7 days

  11. Change of quotation • The part REFERENCES will be separated for academic and other sources. • Academic sources (papers in journals, books and chapters, theses, research reports, thematic maps) dispose with data like author(s), the publisher, year of publication, pages as a rule • DOI numbers enabling cross-reference will be asked from authors when available • Other sources (data sets, government materials, basic maps, web sources, laws, technical norms, oral information) will be quoted separately.

  12. Special numbers • Special numbers delivers a majority of papers and thus they are necessary at the moment • Special numbers from conferences – papers presented in conferences are not prepared for publication in a scientific journal as a rule; • Special numbers from projects are usually compact and well-prepared • Special numbers initiated by the Editorial Board bring a wide spectrum territorially and in content; their surplus can be used within standard numbers

  13. Future Special Numbers • It is suitable to suggest a special number with following schedule: • Announcement February 2017 • Expressions of interest May 2017 • Deadline for papers submitting September 2017 • Publishing March 2018 • Members of the Advisory Board and the Executive Board are free to suggest relevant topics
