Abstract
Background and purpose: Regulation of urban greenery design, management and protection was approved in 2008 in Lithuania after the Green Space Law was passed, allowing protection of public green spaces and woody plants. Protection of these resources first requires an inventory, and we have created a digital database that will help in management of urban green spaces. Materials and methods: An inventory of green spaces and woody plants was conducted in the public urban territory of Ariogala, using GIS technology. A digital cartographic database was created using ArcGis 9.1 software. Results and conclusions: Most of the woody plants in the survey area are deciduous trees, and the survey reenvironmental condition of the green spaces and to ensure that the size of the green spaces conforms to valid standards [1]. The inventory of green spaces in Lithuanian towns using GIS technology was launched in 2005. An upgraded methodology of forest inventory, which is more appropriate for individual trees, small tree groups and alleys, was used for inventory of green spaces in towns. This article analyses the results of the green space inventory of the town of Ariogala. MATERIALS AND METHODS
Highlights
Regulation of urban greenery design, management and protection in Lithuania was approved in 2008 after the Green Space Law was passed [1]
The inventory was conducted in Ariogala, which is located in the central part of Lithuania (55° 15′ 54.06′′ N, 23° 28′ 06.21′′ E)
For plants near tower blocks, location was estimated to scale, because building shadows can hide the plants (Figure 2). These results report the woody plant inventory data for the town of Ariogala
Summary
Regulation of urban greenery design, management and protection in Lithuania was approved in 2008 after the Green Space Law was passed [1]. We are planning means of woody plant protection, management and design and building a digital database for green space accounting [5]. Regulation of urban greenery design, management and protection was approved in 2008 in Lithuania after the Green Space Law was passed, allowing protection of public green spaces and woody plants.
