Created using maps of scale 1: 32,000,000 and 1: 75,000,000.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 shown by polygons. Zones of recorded mass outbreak shown by polygons.Accuracy of classifier:
Within the area, recorded cases of Siberian Locust mass reproduction are shown by points (Lachininskii et al., 2002). The more frequently pest outbreaks occur and the higher their economic impact, the more dense the cloud of points will be on map. Open published maps of the area and zone of mass reproductions used (Lachininskii et al., 2002); (Sergeev, 1986).Method of map production:
Scientists were given maps with boundaries of Oblasts and arable lands. After reviewing historic literature, species distribution was hand drawn on maps. If data were on the Oblast-level, distribution is on the Oblast level. In some cases, Oblasts were further refined by boundaries of the Arable Land Map. Hand drawn maps of area and zone of mass reproductions scanned, geo-referenced and vectorized. Two original maps of area and zone of mass reproductions scanned. Registration and vectorization of raster maps executed by standard facilities in Idrisi32 and another GIS-technology.Reference citations:
