APPLICATION OF IT-TECHNOLOGIES IN FOREST TAXATION OF SE «ZOLOTONISCHE FOREST FARM»

Abstract

The paper draws attention to changing requirements for forest management and forest using, targeted regulation of forest ecosystems. Approaches to the choice allocation methods of the felling area into main use cutting are considered. Factors that influence the choice allocation methods of the felling area into main use cutting are indicated: climatic conditions of the region, labor protection, features of relief, human factor. Application issues of IT technologies in forestry, advantages and directions of use of geographic information systems, as well as ways to replenish forest geoinformation systems by operational information when updating the forest fund, about state of the forest plantations, carrying out works on forest tax and control to the quality of the felling area into main using in the departments of state forestry and forest management, accumulation of pests or diseases, sanitary condition of forests, for monitoring and environmental forecast, to account for rare species of animals and plants and to determine the optimal conditions for their habitation, for elaboration of methods of analysis of alternative variants of economic influence on forests are covered. The importance of cartographic information which is constantly necessary to combine with databases, which is an important link in the organization and planning of forestry at the assignation of the main use felling area and control over the quality of their assignation and in conducting forest management works is indicated. The paper gives a sequence of work for the allocation of the main use felling area: selection of the felling area in cutting according to established «The rules of the main use cutting in the forests of Ukraine», demarcation of the selected areas on the ground, complete list of trees, measurement of model trees to determine the height category, conducting a monetary evaluation of the felling area with the registration of all the necessary documentation. The ability to apply IT technology to allocation the main use felling area and complex forest- taxation works is substantiated and practically proved: selection of plots to allocation of the felling area as a whole, creation of a database, which is compatible with the digital forestry map by manual vectorization on the created digital map of the forestry, determination of basic taxonomic indices of planting (average diameter, average height, composition and age of planting, form of planting, bonite, completeness, growth), material evaluation of the felling area, control over the quality of forest management operations. In the logical sequence, the order of carrying out the specified works is outlined when applying software «InGeo» in the production environment
