Digital Mapping of Cranberry (Oxycoccus palustris) Resources Using GIS-technologies
The technique of digital mapping of bog plant resources is based on cartograms compiled within a network of regular squares. The cartogram was created using the MapInfo program on the basis of a great pool of available and original cartographic and remote materials (aero-photo and space pictures) obtained in long-term studies of cranberry on permanent test plots on bogs of Karelia. The Cartogram of Biological Cranberry Reserves on a scale of 1:3500000 is presented.
