This study employed an algorithm of  vegetation cover mapping based on a spatial analysis of Landsat OLI satellite imagery, a digital elevation model (DEM) and field data using geographic information systems (GIS) and expert knowledge. Applying this algorithm, maps of vegetation types and vegetation growth conditions were built for the test site in the northern part of near-Yenisei Siberia (Krasnoyarsk region).The spatial analysis of these two maps with field samples were used for the extrapolation and mapping of soil carbon stock volumes (kgC/m²).
