Classification of reclaimed land taking into account of soil erosion in the geographic information system

An example of the classification of the reclamation state of irrigated lands using a geographic information system is given in the article. It is proposed to take into account erosion processes. It was established that the «unsatisfactory» state of land in the Central Federal District is noted on 8.16% of the territory of reclaimed land, «satisfactory» and «good» – 91.57%. The classification example and the results of the study can serve as a basis for improving the methodology for assessing the suitability of irrigated land for agricultural use
