The present investigation aims to uncover the landscape diversity in Dragoman Municipality, as well as the ecosystem types, which are representative for the territory. The interest towards this geographical area roots in its close proximity to the capital city of Sofia and the ongoing road works for the establishment of the “Europe” Motorway. It also represents a continuation of the study of the landscapes and ecosystem types in western direction. The mapping of the landscapes is based on the application of LANMAP 2 approach and the development of several GIS layers, consisting of main landscape components: lithology, relief, climate, soils and land cover. The ecosystem types are differentiated, based on the integration between CORINE Land Cover Dataset as of 2018 and the MAES Typology. The results are showing a final landscape map, consisting of 199 landscapes, representing by code symbols, as well as a map of seven different ecosystem types. |
