Accuracy of map:

Map was created based on materials of maps of natural scale 1:5 000 000 - 1:100 000 000.

Projection:

"Alber's Equal Area Conic for the USSR", 9, 1001, 7, 100, 0, 44, 68, 0, 0

Basic contents:

Vector map. Area of species distribution is shown by polygons, and sporadic distribution by points. Zones of weediness are shown by polygons.

Accuracy of classifier:

The weed area is subdivided into two zones, one representing the species distribution, and the second where weed is considered a serious pest. Points represent locations where sporadic occurrence has been reported.
Within the weed area of Cardaria draba the zones of its weediness were established according to criteria of occurrence (% of fields where this species is found) and abundance (expressed as projective cover of this species in the field (in % to the field area)) where the occurrence of this species exceeded 20% and with its abundance (projective cover) more than 15% (Tanskii et al., 1998).

Method of map production:

The area of distribution for this species was determined according to the maps of Hulten & Fries (1986) and Volkov (1935). The northern limit of the area within the Ukraine was adjusted according to Hulten & Fries (1986) and was confirmed according to the data of Visyulina (1970). The area of weediness was established according to Nikitin (1983) and coordinated with the limits of arable lands (Koroljeva et al., 2003). The sites of sporadic distribution of Cardaria draba, in addition to the data of Hulten & Fries (1986) and Volkov (1935) were determined within the European part of Russia according to the following literature sources: in central and northern regions according to Belozerov (1966), Bogachev et al. (1962), Vaisberg et al. (1981), Gusev (1968, 1973), Gushchina (1973), Malysheva (1979), Khmelev & Berezutskii (1995); in the territory of the Volga region according to Efimova (1972), Markov (1979), Papchenkov (1990), Papchenkov & Dimitriev (1989). The sporadic distribution of this species in the Far East, in addition to the data of Kharkevich (1988), was determined according to Nechaeva (1985) and Malyshev & Peshkova (1994) in Siberia. In the Baltic states the sites of sporadic distribution of C. draba were determined according to the following sources: Motekaitite (1985), Tabaka et al. (1988), Shults (1977); in Belorussia they were determined according to Parfenov (1985). The sites of sporadic distribution of this species within the Caucasus described by Grossgeim (1950) were included in the main area and this is supported by the data of Volkov (1935) and Hulten & Fries (1986). Sporadic distribution of C. draba in the North-East of Kazakhstan as described according to Hulten & Fries (1986) was also included in the main area and this is confirmed by the data of Volkov (1935). Data were then compiled through scanning and geo-referencing to develop a composite vector map. The biologist, together with the GIS specialist, drew a composite weed distribution area based on compiled data.
