The GIMS structure includes tools for the measurement of the land cover
characteristics, algorithms and software, as well as technologies for the synthesis of
the soil-plant formation images based on the monitoring data and other information
containing in the environmental databases. The GIMS database has series of spatial
images of the soil-plant covers that were formed in the framework of different
international and national environmental programs. Figures

show
various examples of spatial images for soil-plant formations.
