Object description Download GIS-layers

Authors:

The expert-botanist - T.N. Smekalova, the GIS-expert - G.V. Talovina.

Date of creation:

21.12.2003.

Scale:

1:20 000 000.

Accuracy of a map:

Map is based on data from herbarium specimens and on maps having the following scale: 1:10 000 000 - 1:80 000 000.

The projection:

"Alber's Equal Area Conic for Russia", 9, 1001, 7, 100, 0, 44, 68, 0, 0.

Basic contents:

Vector map. Area of species distribution is shown by polygons, actual location occurrence in shown by points.

Accuracy of classifier:

Point data were obtained from literature sources and herbarium specimens. Light-colored points are locations referenced from literature sources. Dark-colored points are locations of species that were reported from herbarium samples (N.I. Vavilov), (Komarov Botanical Institute), (Voronezh State University), (Far East Branch of the Russian Academy of Science). Polygons are based on literature sources, herbarium samples, and field surveys by the authors. Polygon is based on generalized information from literature sources including: (Grossgheim, 1950), (Bush, 1939), (Dorofeev, 1998, 2002), (Hulten & Fries, 1986), (Kharkevitch, 1988) and (Tsvelev, 2000), as well as herbarium specimens, political boundaries and ecological description.

Method of map production:

Published literature was reviewed, including Atlases, monographs and papers. Occurrence data were obtained from herbarium specimens, floras, monographs and papers. Data were then compiled through scanning and geo-referencing to develop a composite vector map. The biologist, together with the GIS specialist, drew a new plant distribution area based on compiled data.
