Summary:

System (GIS) supported Vineyard Register (VINGIS). The GIS support for the existing HEGYIR vineyard databases providing Vineyard Register for all vineyard communities in the country is a currently running project of the FÖMI. The map of the potential production site for vineyards that was developed and maintained by the Viticultural and Enological Research Institute (SZBKI) on analogue maps showing the production site suitability for vineyards. These maps were created by onsite observation, but at that time the available maps and technology did not provide enough accuracy to demonstrate the research and the know-how. Now by the help of the GIS technology available in the VINGIS the update of this maps become easier and more efficient. At the same time new research opportunities become possible (e.g.: protection of vines with designated origin). Proceeding
