In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was presented the technology of automatized deciphering of area objects with the help of programme complex ENVI ((Environment for Visualizing Image), developed by the Research Systems, Inc. (the USA)). There were examined existing methods of deciphering in the programme complex ENVI. The presented order of deciphering could be recommended for production and could be used for the deciphering of linear and single-point objects.

Recently, studies on land consolidation and valuation in farm lands have became more important due to a new soil conservation law (2005, 5403 numbered) and European Union Integration processes in our country. However, each soil group determined by morphometric system in agricultural lands have its own land use and management practices. Description and determination of soil properties are not sufficiently made by considering old soil classification system. Nowadays, Soil Taxonomy preferred by many countries in the world has been used for soil classification.

Remotely-sensed images and Geographical Information Systems (GIS) data were integrated into the SLEUTH cellular automata (CA) model to analyze land-use/land-cover dynamics in Chiang Mai city and its surrounds. The land-use and land-cover statistics, obtained from GIS data base and satellite images from 1952, 1977, 1989 and 2000 revealed rapid increased in urbanization during these periods. To understand the underlying causes of land-use and land-cover dynamics, remote sensing, GIS and modeling techniques were applied.

During the territorial reform of Latvia separate parishes and towns will be merged into larger areas. Therefore it is necessary to consider economical and spatial conditions, which develops historically, in context of new space quality regulations in the European Union countries.

Land consolidation is a new concept in Latvia, although in other countries of the world it has been known since the end of the 18th century. Land consolidation is implemented to improve the spatial structure of land holdings and agricultural infrastructure and to rationally use natural resources. It is particularly significant in agriculture when establishing farms of optimal size and territorial location. Land fragmentation hinders not only land management but also increases the transport cost.

In this study, capital structure of farms owning the farm lands which were sold was investigated in Ereğli district, Konya province. As a result of investigation active capital of examined farms are 65.555 YTL. 80.43 % of active capital was land capital and 19.58 % of active capital was farm capital. Soil capital had the biggest portion with 57.59 % in active capital. 97.46 % of passive capital was capital stock and 2.54 % of passive capital was liability capital. As a result of this study, farms were not working efficiently in research area, because of instability of capital structure.

That was to perform a determination of land suitability classes for agricultural land uses in Ankara Imrahor valley and vicinity with this study. First of all detailed survey and mapping of research area was performed with aid of satellite data and topographic maps then four different soil serials and their fourteen different mapping units were described. For this units, 38 different land uses were describe as their soil and meterological properties and calculated their suitability for this region and determined and mapping their land suitability classes for agricultural purposes.

The Promotional Paper Forest Land Transformation in Latvia by Gunta Bāra has been developed at the Forest Faculty of the Latvian University of Agriculture between 2001 and 2007. Goal of the Promotional Paper: to identify the main problems in transformation of forest land in the Republic of Latvia and gaps in legislative instruments regulating the process of change of land use type, to prepare recommendations for their elimination, to develop a methodology for calculation of compensation for the losses caused to the state as a result of destruction of natural forest environment.

The article presents the developed economic-mathematical model of optimization of land tenure sizes of agricultural organizations. The mechanism of comparison of specific industrial expenses increasing and reducing the farm area is revealed. Optimum land tenure sizes of agricultural organizations with territorial organizational-industrial structure for the average conditions of the Republic are established

The present state of the landscapes and territories in the Sahel is the result of interactions between climatic, economic, social and political factors which have been taking place for more than four decades.
