Efficiency of Using Earth Remote Sensing Data for The Rational Use of Agricultural Land
Abstract
The study of agricultural production and land use in the north-east of Kazakhstan is based on the data obtained after processing medium spatial resolution space images of Kazakh (KazEOSat-2, KazSTSat) and foreign (Sentinel-2, Landsat-8) satellites for the period from May to September 2017 - 2021. It is shown that the use of methods of objective remote sensing allows for comprehensive monitoring of agricultural land of the country. The authors have developed scientifically substantiated methods of evaluation of the main indicators of pastures with a total area of 8,127,000 ha and crops with an area of 1,211,000 ha in the steppe and arid-steppe zones of Pavlodar region of Kazakhstan.
