Grid map of Seymskiy Regional Landscape Park

Abstract

Modern approaches to the use of grid mapping in studies of biodiversity at the level of distinct countries and local territories are described. Information on the territory of Seymskiy Regional Landscape Park as a significant element of the National Ecological Network, the Emerald Network in Ukraine and the regional ecological network, and on its functional zoning is given. The cartographic basis of the territory of Seymskiy Regional Landscape Park is created via MapInfo program. When designing the grid map of the park, the experience of developing grid maps for Cheremosh National Nature Park, Vyzhnytsky National Nature Park, Hutsulshchyna National Nature Park, Khotynsky National Natural Park was used. It is based on application of a grid of 1×1-km squares, which is consistent with the accepted in Atlas Florae Europaeae grid, following the UTM coordinate system. Operational layer of the generated map comprises 1193 squares, fully (876) or partially (317) covering the study area. Each square is assigned an individual number (ID), consisting of alphanumeric notation that allows to easily find information and operate it. For each of the plant species, there is created a separate layer, stored in an electronic database and containing information about the location of the species in a certain square. Synthesis of information using the algorithm of creating thematic maps will help to identify the locations of concentration of floristic diversity in the study area, and its combination with zoning maps will provide an opportunity to correct functional zoning of Seymskiy Regional Landscape Park. The information collected and organized in this way will clearly display the dynamics of the number of individual species, which is especially relevant for rare species and alien flora fraction of the park. Cartographic material will be the basis for further monitoring studies within the territory of Seymskiy Regional Landscape Park.

Ергазіофіти Регіонального Ландшафтного Парку «Сеймський»

“…Назви видів та їхні автори вказані за «Vascular plants of Ukraine...» [MOSYAKIN, FEDORONCHUK, 1999] із корективами, узгодженими за POWO. Інформацію в анотованому списку подано у такій послідовності: латинська назва виду; життєва форма за К. Раункієром; характеристики виду за часом занесення; походженням; ступенем натуралізації в регіоні дослідження; частота виду в межах РЛП «Сеймський» (дуже рідко -1-4 локалітети, рідко -5-9, спорадично -10-20, часто -20 і більше).Картосхеми поширення видів на території парку створені у середовищі програми MapInfo на основі карти з сіткою квадратів 1×1 км [BUDZHAK, MISKOVA, 2020].…”
