Geoecological evaluation of the territory in the GIS environment in the preparation of information for land management design

Abstract

This study focuses on improving the technology for the preparation of geospatial information for land management design. The following hypothesis was the basis of the study: if the technology of geoecological assessment of the territory in the GIS environment is developed in the preparation of information for land management design, then its quality will increase, and as a result, the effectiveness of managerial decisions in the field of environmentally friendly land use will increase as well. The geoecological assessment of the territory is understood as the mathematical-cartographic, spatial, multi-parameter analysis of the auspiciousness of its agro-resource and geoecological conditions for sustainable production of plant agricultural products without disrupting the functions of life support (environmental and resource production). The developed technology can be used to solve the following problems: a) improving the land management system; b) improving control of land management; c) the formation of a database on the suitability of the territory for agricultural development, taking into account its sustainability; d) the territorial distribution of agricultural loads based on the geoecological situation. The advantage of the technology developed by the authors lies in the fact that a really working mechanism of geoecological assessment of the territory in the GIS environment is created when preparing information for land management design, which will allow to improve the quality of the developed design solutions and as a result will ensure the environmental safety of the functioning of natural and agricultural systems and the careful use of land resources.
