Dynamics of changes in the Polish agriculture was undoubtedly affected the most by Poland's accession to the European Union. During the first years of the membership the EU agricultural policy based mainly on supporting economic development of agricultural farms in the new member states. After the introduction of Rural Development Policy (RDP) for the years 2007-2013, greater emphasis was put on the natural environment protection, rural development but also on the measures for farm support. The amount of money allocated to this objective in-creased but simultaneously the regulations concerning the requirements a farmer must fulfil to get the payment were tightened. Yearly changeability of cropping structure and acreage causes numerous troubles for farmers who apply for direct payments but also to farms implementing modernization projects because they have to makes yearly reporting concerning cropping structure for ARMA. At present, in order to obtain regional, national or EU subventions agricul-tural holding should submit annual reports of its agricultural activity. The paper suggests the use of GIS techniques to conduct spatial registration of agricultural parcels included in the crop rotation of the farm production. The created database will facilitate an analysis of agricultural farm production providing the information necessary for reporting required ...
Geodata management (including photogrammetric data) and making themaccessible in the member countries of the European Union takes place on differentprinciples. The paper presents the operation of Internet portals in Poland andsome other Federal States of Germany (Thuringia and Bavaria) where surveyingdata are made available in accordance with the INSPIRE directive. The contentsof functioning there internet portals in compared, with particular emphasis on theaccessibility of photogrammetric data. ...
Interest in orthophotomap and Digital Terrain Model, not only in Polandbut also in many European Union countries, results from works associated withestablishing a uniform Geographic Information System. Availability of orthophotomap- its presence in internet geoportals - causes that it is used for many purposes. The paper presents possibility of using orthophotomap and DTM to evaluatechanges in the way of agricultural land use, for example, the surroundings ofwater reservoir Domaniów. Orthophotomaps made at various periods of time,based on aerial photographs of 1:26000 scale (panchromatic and color) were usedfor this purpose. Application of various computer techniques allowed the visualizationof the DTM and graphical representation of changes occurring at the presentedsite. ...
Cartographic elaboration that provide information about landscape changes are analysed in the article. The purpose of this article is to present the development of cartographic materials that provide information about landscape. At the outset illustrates the distribution of sources information about the landscape whereas the time period for which these resources apply. The following materials were analysed: Polish land register, topographic maps, master map, cadastral map, orthophotomaps, local spatial plan, and study of conditions and directions of spatial development. The article focuses on presenting the development of cartographic sources from Polish territory. The chart made on the basis of analysis shows periods in which each source occurred. Nowadays, modern technologies are used for establishing, maintaining, updating and sharing information on land. In order to properly present landscape changes both the old and new sources of information should be taken into account, also a constant modernization sources should be performed. ...
