Abstract The study is focused on gathering information to monitor sustainable land development and biodiversity. article discusses the objectives measures required achieve Sustainable Development Goal 15 “Protect, restore promote use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, halt reverse degradation biodiversity loss”. This paper shows results analysis key indicators values for Ukraine. It also contains developed conceptual diagram managing ecosystems There were identified main sources statistical information, including traditional enterprise-level data big data, analyzed changes in monitoring achievement Goals at micro level under section “Environmental area”. potential calculating presented explored develop an base monitoring, evaluating, policy related Further research studies are needed determine algorithms processing, modelling constructing integrated indicators.
