Object description Download GIS-layers

Authors:

Specialist-biologist - O.E. Kravchenko, GIS-specialist - M.I. Saulith.

Data of creation:

29.09.2003.

Scale:

1:20 000 000.

Accuracy of map:

Map was created based on materials of maps of natural scale 1:10 000 000-1:80 000 000 and on literature data.

Projection:

"Alber's Equal Area Conic on 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 species distribution, and the second where weed is considered a serious pest. Points represent locations where sporadic occurrence has been reported.

Method of map production:

Published literature was reviewed, including Atlases, monographs and papers. Occurrence data were obtained from herbarium specimens, floras, monographs and papers. The following sources were used to determine the general distribution of this species: Chikov (1976), Tolmachaev (1974), Kharkevih (1992). The zones of sporadic distribution were determined according to publications listed below. The zones of harmfulness were determined according to the publications below and also on the map of Arable Lands (Koroljeva et al., 2003). 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.
