DIGITALIZATION OF ACCOUNTING OF GAME ANIMALS: LITERATURE REVIEW

Abstract

The article presents an analysis of the world experience in the use of digital technologies in the accounting of game animals. Key approaches are considered, such as the use of geographic information systems (GIS) to analyze the suitability of habitats and the potential number of mammals and birds, automated systems for monitoring and accounting of animals using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and camera traps. Examples from various countries are analyzed, where the digitalization of monitoring and accounting of animal communities has increased the accuracy of the data obtained, which has reduced the impact on ecosystems and improved the management of hunting resources. The possibility of adapting these technologies to the conditions of Kazakhstan is considered, with an emphasis on the need for an integrated approach to monitoring to ensure the sustainable development of the hunting industry and the preservation of natural heritage in the face of global environmental challenges. The presented results can be used to develop effective strategies for the digitalization of wildlife monitoring in Kazakhstan and other countries with similar natural and climatic conditions.
