Abstract

The present study integrates Remote Sensing, GIS and ground survey to study the floristic composition of medicinal as well as herbal plants within and around Chilkigarh village; the major fascination of Chilkigarh, West Bengal, India. The Global Positioning System (GPS) and Geographic Information System (GIS) layers of land use and land cover (LULC), and plants species location interpolated were created using thematic functions in Arc GIS software. The relationship between the landuse and medicinal plant species were implemented to explore the plants modeling both spatial and non-spatial data under the GIS platform. The forest is covered with 184 medicinal plant species under 155 genera, distributed among 56 plant familes under the division Mono-cotyledons and Di-cotyledons. Our checklist represents some dominating families likeFabaceae (16), Poaceae (13) Asteraceae (13), Euphorbiaceae (13), Malvaceae (11), Apocynaceae (10), Araceae (9), Acanthaceae (8), Solanaceae (7). Rubiaceae (6), Verbenaceae (6) among the 184 species, presented checklist includes herbs (98), shrubs (33), trees (34), climbers (18) and epiphyte (1). Finally, the medicinal plant’s information as a geographic database determination assists the conservation prioritization, methodical documentation, continuous monitoring and safeguard the forest from anthropogenic activities of the plant species.

利用遥感和GIS技术对印度西孟加拉邦奇尔基加尔的药用植物多样性建模

本研究将遥感、地理信息系统和地面调查相结合，研究了Chilkigarh村内外药用植物和草药植物的区系组成;印度西孟加拉邦奇尔基加尔的主要魅力。利用Arc GIS软件中的专题功能，建立了全球定位系统(GPS)和地理信息系统(GIS)的土地利用和土地覆盖层(LULC)，以及植物物种定位插值。利用土地利用与药用植物种类之间的关系，探索GIS平台下植物的空间和非空间数据建模。森林有药用植物184种，隶属于155属，分布于单子叶植物科和双子叶植物科56科。我们的清单代表了184种植物中的一些主要科，如fabaceae (16)， Poaceae (13)， Asteraceae (13)， Euphorbiaceae (13)， Malvaceae (11)， Apocynaceae (10)， araraceae (9)， Acanthaceae (8)， Solanaceae (7). Rubiaceae(6)，马鞭草科(6)。最后，药用植物的信息作为地理数据库确定有助于保护优先级，有系统的文献记录。持续监测和保护森林免受人为活动的植物物种。

期刊介绍： Town Planning Review has been one of the world"s leading journals of urban and regional planning since its foundation in 1910. With an extensive international readership, TPR is a well established urban and regional planning journal, providing a principal forum for communication between researchers and students, policy analysts and practitioners. To mark TPR’s centenary in 2010, it is proposed to publish a series of ‘Centenary Papers’ -- review papers that record and reflect on the state of the art in a range of topics in the general field of town and regional planning.
