Remote monitoring of the agro forestry landscapes with application of the GIS-technologies

Geoinformation technologies ensure the application of the program-technical means of processing, transfer and analysis of the information when planning of the agro forestry landscapes. The article presents the results of the agro-landscapes of the steppe, dry steppe and semi-desert zones of the Russian Federation. The use of the GIS-technologies and aerospace information for monitoring of the state of agro-landscapes provides its relevance and credibility. Use of GIS-technologies for monitoring, mapping and modeling of the agro-landscapes of the North-West Caspian region showed its high effectiveness. The total surveyed area exceeded 4,4 million hectares.
