A system of information support to the ecological-economic mechanism of land use within the paradigm of sustainable development

This study focuses on the processes and mechanisms of land use management in the context of sustainable development. The task under consideration is associated with the fragmentation of information support to the ecological-economic mechanism behind land use (EEMLU), which complicates the objective assessment of land resources. The feasibility of a conceptual approach to improving EEMLU information support at various levels of management has been substantiated. A multi-level land information system has been designed, categorized by type and content, and consolidated into a single information space (SIS), taking into account regional characteristics. An approach to designing an EEMLU information support system has been proposed, taking into account the potential of the latest digital technologies and the principles of open data. The principles of forming and functioning of information support were outlined and categorized; the factors influencing its effectiveness were systematized. An algorithm has been developed to enhance the significance of land efficiency assessment methods through the use of integrated indicators, which enables comprehensive consideration of the environmental, economic, and social outcomes of land use. A model has been built to substantiate the effectiveness of EEMLU information support, which makes it possible to assess the range of benefits for all participants in land and property relations. The results are attributed to a comprehensive approach that took into account regional characteristics and modern information and analytical tools. The findings could be practically implemented provided that a SIS for land resources is constructed and the proposed model is applied in state and local government, taking into account regional characteristics, in order to improve the effectiveness of land use assessment
