Predictive ecological models for 39 climax and subclimax habitats were built based on the Hungarian Actual Habitat Database (MÉTA). Environmental predictors were, among others, the fine-resolution, downscaled climate and soil data.
Prediction of the potential planting area for woody ornamental plants based on potential natural vegetation models was defended at the Doctoral School of Landscape Architecture and Landscape Ecology of SZIE by Ákos Bede-Fazekas.
Instead of a single colour map for one attribute, any combination of three point attributes can be mapped to each of the three primary colours. This visualization scheme exploits our intuitive understanding of the RGB colour scheme for dealing with three arbitrary attributes simultaneously.
Two-day GIS training courses were organized for beginners to raise awareness, knowledge and skills.
