Abstract (English):
The issue on the fallow lands’ return into cultivation includes not only economic concerns, but it also dealt with insufficient information about fallow lands’ location, current status of the soil surface, fertility and soil degradation degree. Research objective was to develop information support which helps to determine the location of the plot, its boundaries, area, overgrowth with shrubs or small woodlands, littering, as well as to identify the type of soil cover identifying the potential soil fertility. A comprehensive electronic map of fallow lands was created on the example of the Moscow region, cadastral numbers being plotted too. The boundaries, areas, forestation and overgrowth of plot were determined using high-resolution aerial photographs. Database of the above-mentioned characteristics is given in the map appendix, which provides to estimate the feasibility of unused land return into agricultural circulation.
