Land inventory on the basis of methods of GIS technologies use

Abstract

Taking into consideration that recently there has been a significant amount of interest in the improving and regulating the land relations, land inventory taking is an increasingly relevant and high-demand procedure. In this regard, there is a need to create a unified geographic information database that will combine information from various surveys, the environmental status assessment and cadastral information about land plots, territorial entities, agricultural enterprises etc. This aspect confirms the urgency of the research. The research objective is to develop a methodology for the agricultural land inventory based on the use of geographic information technologies (GIS technologies). The article analyzes the legal and methodological aspects of land inventory in Ukraine. The innovative methodology has been developed for inventory taking of agricultural lands through GIS technologies. The model of the Public Cadastral Map of Ukraine has been improved on the basis of a GIS-classifier, according to which data are entered into a single geographic information database of agricultural land inventory with the identification of base layers.
