비오톱지도 제작을 위한 비오톱 유형화 연구 : 시흥시 비오톱 지도 제작 사례를 중심으로 = A Study on the Biotope Type Classification for Making Biotope Map : Focused on Case of Making Biotope Map of Siheung

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

To make biotope map, there are some process. That is the biotope type classification and the assessment by surveying data. The biotope type classification is a essential process to define biotope property and for planning of management and preservation. But there was not yet our own system of biotope type classification in Korea, because it is late that we made and use biotope map. This study was executed to make biotope type classification standard to fit into Siheung, to investigate the biotope type classification situation of Korea and Germany. The field survey was done during the period from July 2006 to October 2007. The biotope types of Siheung was divided to biotope class, biotope group, biotope type
The biotope types of Siheung was totally divided to 13 biotope classes, 25 biotope groups, 59 biotope types. The standard to those classification were reflected land use, utilization and management intensity, land coverage, formation factor, kinds of facility, number of building floor, construction period, form and structure of vegetation, scale of vegetation area, property of flora, soil condition, water environment That is almost similar to the standard of Seoul biotope type classification. But the biotope type classification of Siheung became intense to soil condition and water environment, compared with that of Seoul.
In the result of biotope type classification to Siheung, some characteristic type was differently divided in comparison to other city of Korea. It is estuary marshy land biotope type and so on, because Siheung is located to the coast of West Sea and has marshy land. It means that the biotope types of Korea must subdivide and have need of standard for biotope type classification.
