2024: Creation of GIS
The Russian government approved a decree on the creation of the state information system (GIS) "Okhota," which will begin to function on January 1, 2025. This became known in early September 2024. This system will become an important management tool in the field of hunting and hunting resources, helping to simplify the interaction of authorities and improve the quality of public services in this area.
The resolution was developed as part of the implementation of the new provisions of the federal law on hunting and conservation of hunting resources, adopted in December 2023. GIS "Okhota" is designed to become part of the unified digital platform of Russia "GosTech," on which its creation, development and operation will be carried out.
The technical customer of the system is the Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of Russia (Ministry of Digital Media of Russia), and the functional customer and operator is the Ministry of Natural Resources and Ecology of the Russian Federation. It is this department that will be responsible for the further development and operation of the Okhota GIS, ensuring its integration with other state information resources.
One of the key goals of the creation of the Okhota GIS is to generate reliable and up-to-date information on the state of hunting farms and resources. The system will function the state hunting register and other hunting-related registers, which will allow you to quickly identify changes in the state of hunting resources under the influence of natural and anthropogenic factors.
GIS "Okhota" will also provide interaction with digital resources of various state structures, including the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Federal Tax Service, Rosprirodnadzor, the Federal Agency for Nationalities (FADN) and Roskadastre. In addition, the system will be integrated with regional structures responsible for the development of hunting, which will significantly reduce the time for the provision of public services in this area.[1]
