Abstract
In this research, the case study of ex-arable lands in a period from 2013 to 2020 at the National Reserve “Khortytsia” has been conducted. The regenerative successions that cause grasslands and woody-shrub vegetation at the Khortytsia were the main objects of the research. The succession factors (the proximity of natural complexes as sources of seeds, the presence of adventitious species, fires, rats, human activities) have been analyzed. It has proposed the vegetation changes detection and mapping technique on the abandoned lands. The study of vegetation changes has been performed by visual and semi-automatic interpretation of Landsat 7, 8 satellite images. In addition map series of the NDVI changes have worked out. The vegetation changes have been studied by a linear trend of NDVI average median values analysis. Research has shown the effectiveness of geoinformation technologies application for regenerative successions monitoring at the territory of Khortytsia National Reserve.
