Abstract: Due to the natural, ecological, anthropogenic, infrastructure urbanization and mineral
extraction processing, etc. effects, there was a change in the phytocenosis, or the vegetation, related
to the composition of the biocenosis in the territory of the republic. Vegetation mapping is required
to prevent such negative processes. From this point of view, drawing up a map of vegetation
on geobotanical contours at the level of type and formation classes is an actual problem in modern
times.
Therefore, the preparation of the relevant map in an electronic version was set as a goal. Thus with
the application of the Geographical Information System ArcGıs) and the “ Electron Land Cadastre
Registration Information System (ELCRİS) as well as with reference to the aerospace sounding method
and investigations conducted, a map was developed based on the classification of vegetation.
Referring to our research, “Vegetation map of Azerbaijan” was compiled on a scale of 1:600000.
VEGETATION MAPPING IN THE TERRITORY OF THE REPUBLIC OF AZERBAIJAN IS AN ACTUAL PROBLEM
