Study of using GIS technologies in forestry cadastre and monitoring for environmental sustainability
Аннотация
Abstract The integration of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technologies in the forestry cadastre and monitoring practices in Uzbekistan represents a significant advancement in sustainable forest management. This study explores the application of GIS in enhancing the accuracy, efficiency, and comprehensiveness of forestry cadastre, which is crucial for the effective management, conservation, and restoration of forest resources in Uzbekistan. Through spatial analysis, remote sensing, and data integration, GIS technologies offer detailed insights into forest cover, land use changes, and biodiversity, providing a robust framework for decision-making and policy formulation. The research highlights how GIS tools facilitate the precise mapping of forest boundaries, monitoring of illegal logging activities, and assessment of reforestation efforts. Furthermore, the study examines the challenges and opportunities in implementing GIS in Uzbekistan’s forestry sector, considering the country’s unique geographical and ecological context. The findings suggest that adopting GIS technologies can significantly contribute to achieving Uzbekistan’s environmental sustainability goals and improving the management of its forestry resources.
