Обгрунтовано значення ландшафтної карти для геоінформаційного моделювання регіональних екологічних мереж. Запропоновано та розглянуто основні етапи картографування генетико-морфологічної ландшафтної територіальної структури у Північному Приазов"ї, у результаті виконання, яких було отримано низку картографічних матеріалів та даних необхідних для моделювання екомережі.
Обосновано значение ландшафтной карты для геоинформационного моделирования региональных экологических сетей. Предложены и рассмотрены основные этапы картографирования генетико-морфологической ландшафтной территориальной структуры в Северном Приазовье, в результате выполнения, которых было получено ряд картографических материалов и данных необходимых для моделирования экосети.
The importance of landscape maps for regional ecological networks geo-informative modeling was justified. In addition there were proposed and considered the next main stages for the Northern Pryavov"ya"s landscapes mapping process: 1) analysis of theoretic-appliedfoundations and selection of sources which are required for the landscape map forming (at this stage, it was determined that diagnostic natural components for the landscape map creation will be geological structure (quaternary sediments), soils, vege&tation and topography; this approach boiled down to the fact that the allocation of units of genetic and morphological landscape territorial structure must be considered as the uniformity of all the above components; structure of the future attribute& table was designed); 2) vectorization of the research region"s soils maps and its initial analysis (at this stage there were created several types of maps which in turn became very useful for landscape maps forming); 3) morphological structuring and& geo-morphological analysis of the studied region (there was used an automated approach for studied region" relief analysis, building of its topological surface and analyzing of the slopes, which however were used as auxiliary in the classification o&f relief"s specific forms); 4) analysis of data about vegetation, its selection and combination (the data about vegetation was systematized and further the corresponding information included into the attribute table structure); 5) synthesis of data a&bout natural components and delimitation of the landscape types" contours. As a result of the above steps we received a number of cartographic materials and data required for ecological network modeling. Prospects for the further research is calculat&ion of the main indices of landscape diversity and identification of the regional ecological network"s most important elements
