Abstract

A study was carried out by comparing the spatial data of the project for the organization and management in the Stavropol forestry enterprise. The total area of the Stavropol urban forestry from 1997 to 2021 increased by 564,7 hectares due to the addition of a steppe landscape territory. It was established that 429,75 hectares of forested areas were excluded from forestry. Based on the information from the Unified State Register of Real Estate, the areas that were excluded from the forestry are currently used for residential development. Satellite images show the boundaries of the territories of the stows in 1997 and 2021, marked with different colors of the territory excluded from the total area of forest areas, as well as added areas. The comparative analysis of data for 1997, 2013 and 2021 allows us to identify all the changes in the qualitative and quantitative aspects. In accordance with the results of the study, during the study period, there is a positive trend in the increase in the area of the Stavropol urban forestry. However, it has been established that, based on the results of a detailed analysis of changes in the area of natural boundaries and regional reserves, the area of forest lands that are part of the forestry has decreased. The analysis of the factors that had a negative impact on the forest fund was carried out.
