Abstract
The relevance of the study is determined by the issue of assessing the condition and utilization of forest cover within the territory of the Skole Beskydy National Nature Park, as well as the necessity to develop effective methods for monitoring and conserving forest ecosystems. The purpose of the study was to investigate the dynamics of forest cover changes within the Skole Beskydy National Nature Park, as well as to assess the losses of forest resources in this area and recommend the obtained series of images to enhance the forest management system. The research was conducted using a comprehensive approach combining various methods of studying forest cover changes and their comparison. The basis for applying remote sensing technologies was the use of specific multispectral satellite images combined with attribute information on forest land geospatial data. The most progressive methods of studying changes in forest plantations based on remote sensing data using geographic information systems have been demonstrated. Satellite images were obtained from the Landsat 8 satellite data set through the United States Geological Survey data portal. The normalized burn ratio and normalized difference vegetation index are calculated and compared. An analysis was also carried out using the Global Forest Watch online resource. As a result of the study, changes in forest cover were identified, an assessment of the changes was provided, and a map reflecting forest changes that occurred in the Skole Beskydy National Nature Park from 2000 to 2020 was developed. According to the results of the analysis, a low level of losses of forest plantations due to natural factors, including losses from fires, was established. The main part of forest losses is caused by anthropogenic factors. The practical significance of the results lies in the possibility of using the obtained series of images within public control and improving the forest management system
