Abstract

The article presents the results of systematisation and mapping of the natural landscapes of Belarus, which domestic researchers have been engaged since the 1960s. During this time, considerable cartographic and literary material concerning the peculiarities of distribution, a set of classification units and zoning units, approaches to their allocation and mapping has been accumulated. However, the appearance at the beginning of the 21st century of new research methods along with the possibility of using modern technologies determined the need to refine and detail many cartographic landscape developments. At the same period (2006–2015), a series of 1 : 500 000 scale wall-mounted physical and geographical maps was created in Belarus and updated information was obtained about the features of the territorial distribution of a number of components of nature. The appearance of such information, along with the available data of remote sensing of the Earth and the possibility of application of geoinformation technologies, also allowed the development of new, detailed versions of maps of natural landscapes, both for institutions of higher and general secondary education using 6 classification units. One of them – map for institutions of higher education on a scale of 1: 500 000 – served as the basis for the analysis and identification of patterns of spatial distribution of natural territorial complexes in the rank of subtypes, groups of genera, genera and species of landscapes. An increase in the number of main classification units was found – genera (from 20 to 22) and species (from 105 to 107) – within the 2 subtypes, as well as a significant change in their area, boundaries and features of spatial distribution. The obtained results served as a basis for clarifying the distribution of regional complexes, which led to the compilation of a new version of the landscape zoning scheme. It was revealed that the number of provinces remained the same, their borders were clarified (the areas changed within 1–5 %) and names. The number of landscape districts has decreased from 56 to 53, their borders, areas and names have changed significantly.

自然景观结构及其在白俄罗斯景观分区方案制定中的作用
本文介绍了自20世纪60年代以来国内研究人员对白俄罗斯自然景观进行系统化和制图的结果。在此期间,积累了大量关于分布特点、一套分类单位和分区单位、分配方法和制图的制图和文学材料。然而,新的研究方法在21世纪初的出现,以及使用现代技术的可能性,决定了对许多制图景观开发进行细化和详细说明的必要性。同一时期(2006-2015年),白俄罗斯绘制了一系列比例尺为1:50000的壁挂式物理和地理地图,并获得了关于自然若干组成部分领土分布特征的最新信息。这些信息的出现,加上现有的地球遥感数据和应用地理信息技术的可能性,也使高等和普通中等教育机构能够使用6个分类单元开发新的、详细的自然景观地图。其中一张是高等教育机构地图,比例尺为1:500000,是分析和识别景观亚型、属群、属和种的自然领土复合体空间分布模式的基础。在这两个亚型中,主要分类单位——属(从20个增加到22个)和种(从105个增加到107个)的数量有所增加,它们的面积、边界和空间分布特征也发生了显著变化。所获得的结果为澄清区域综合体的分布提供了基础,从而编制了新版景观分区方案。据透露,各省的数量保持不变,边界得到澄清(地区变化在1-5%以内),名称也有所改变。景观区的数量从56个减少到53个,其边界、区域和名称都发生了重大变化。
