The article presents the results of Volyn region’s inhabited landscapes metrization. As a result of Volyn available land structure analysis, the anthropogenic landscape class was singled out – built-up area that is an inhabited landscape itself, characterized as one of the most dynamically growing.
The research work was carried out at the administrative microlevel with singling out key areas. The keys for Volyn region were chosen within the bounds of the local councils.
Processing of fund data (including Zem-6 certificate, topographical maps of different time segments) by means of GIS-tecnologies combined with modern IT-programmes let us analyse the correlation of area and structure of inhabited built-up landscapes usage with matrix approach. As a result of matrix analysis both territorial and structural differences in correlation of inhabited built-up share in Volyn region were found out.
Quantitative assessment and dynamics analysis of inhabited landscape pattern which is characterized by distinguished boundaries were carried out by means of metric approach. Landscape contour division coefficient, circular index was defined.
The territory of Volyn region upland area is determined to have higher contour division coefficient in comparison to Polissya territory, which is explained by a variegated landscape pattern with well-planned and divided into streets and blocks development. A number of map charts, diagrams, matrixes were constructed according to the results of the research work
