Monitoring was carried out using Sentinel-2 satellite images
Experts have identified 19 sites in the Carpathians
in the Chernivtsi and Ivano-Frankivsk regions
where forest cover changes with potential violations occurred from August 25 to October 24
These results of their own research were published by the NGO Forest Initiatives and Society
Specialists of the organization systematically analyze space images of the Carpathian forest cover as part of the "Forest Monitoring" project
They compare the detected changes in the forest stock with the necessary permit documents for felling
"Any modification of the forest massif must be substantiated with documentation
the real state of felling must coincide with the terms and configuration of the area of the felled forest defined in the document
The type of cutting must also correspond to the declared one," they say
The necessary cartographic materials are compiled on the basis of electronic maps from the materials of "LIAC" and the portal "Geoinformational systems of management of forest resources of Ukraine"
experts discovered 113changed plots on the territory of Chernivtsi and Ivano-Frankivsk regions
of which 94recorded in electronic registers and supported by logging permit tickets
"Violations were not detected in the areas either
so to say the least 83% during this period
the forest cover underwent changes in a legal way"
They allocated on the territory of the state enterprise "Forests of Ukraine" in Chernivtsi region 13 plots
which require a more detailed examination:
The location of forest fund change plots by forest users
The location of forest fund change plots by categories of logging ticket availability
On the territory of the state enterprise "Forests of Ukraine" in Ivano-Frankivsk regionthere are 6 plots
The NGO reported that the experts sent clarifying requests to the forest users based on the results of the monitoring and are waiting for their answers to investigate the real state of felling in the areas
experts determined the selection of sites for direct field surveys
