According to the Republican Center for Aerogeodesy, over the past three years, 96 percent of all land in the country has been included in electronic digital maps. This was reported by the head of the department of the Republican Center for Aerogeodesy, I. Toshtanov.
It was reported that a special aircraft, an aerial camera, and 112 drones were purchased for the effective organization of topographic surveys. In addition, 6 information systems and data centers have been launched in the industry. As a result, cadastral documents were drawn up for 1.2 million hectares of agricultural land in reserve, and 425 thousand hectares of land were allocated to 675 thousand residents and farmers.
Monitoring and inventory work are regularly carried out in the context of regions by categories of the land fund of the republic. In recent years, the effective management and rational use of land resources have reached a new level. As a result, an inventory of all land plots in the country is being carried out in stages.
A complete inventory of agricultural land, actually used for industrial or other purposes, was conducted, and proposals were submitted to the Government Commission. Leading specialists of the Republican Center for Aerogeodesy conducted an inventory of these land areas and created electronic maps.
These works were carried out using aerial photographs taken on a Tecnam P2006T aircraft. Each object in the territories where orthoplans were compiled and mapped was subjected to thematic interpretation with high accuracy.
To date, the actual state of land areas indicated in the land accounting in the Republic of Karakalpakstan, Samarkand, Surkhandarya, and Khorezm regions has been studied. Data on all 8 categories of the land fund in the Khorezm region were analyzed, and their practical use was clarified.
According to the report, the total area of land in the Khorezm region is 608,158 hectares, and as a result of the inventory, this area has reached 618,432 hectares. The change in land categories mainly occurred on agricultural lands, and the land plots that were in the agricultural fund according to the report practically transferred to other types of the land fund. Including at the expense of settlement lands, industrial lands, lands of historical and cultural significance, water lands, and nature conservation lands.
In general, in the Khorezm region, in accordance with Article 9 of the Land Code, 60,284 hectares of agricultural land have been transferred to another land category, and a proposal has been prepared for the Government Commission.
In other regions, an inventory of agricultural land has also been carried out. For example, in the Andijan region, according to the report, the land area of 360,585 hectares was identified as 294,756 hectares. In the Samarkand region, there was a decrease from 1 million 466 thousand 18 hectares to 1 million 270 thousand 376 hectares. In Surkhandarya, it decreased from 1 million 356 thousand 595 hectares to 1 million 221 thousand 314 hectares.
According to the report, the irrigated sown area of agricultural land was 296,982.7 hectares, while in practice it was 273,475.3 hectares.
Also, 817 thousand hectares of settlements and industrial land were classified as agricultural land, which created obstacles to the privatization and full disposal of these land plots by their owners.
To date, proposals have been developed and submitted to the Government Commission on changing the categories of land plots totaling more than 542 thousand hectares in Karakalpakstan, Samarkand, Surkhandarya, and Khorezm.
