Two toponymical maps presented in this paper show 2332 inhabited places of Lithuania that have names (oikonyms) associated with vegetation and animals. The maps and the dataset are the outcomes of a project that is aimed at combining the outcomes of professional onomastic research with an environment that fosters exploration. The oikonyms were extracted from the reference base dataset of Lithuania by means of an automated algorithm. Original cartographic symbols have been designed for depicting categories and species. The multiscale map application, with its exploratory tools, makes it easy to see spatial distribution of geographic names related with particular groups of plants and animals. Analysis of map data enables the assertion that local toponymy reflects a distribution of species that were characteristic to the territory over past centuries. The maps are supplemented by comparative density maps and statistical charts. The reference scale of the main maps is 1: 500,000.

立陶宛语中的动植物

本文提供的两个地名地图显示了2332个立陶宛人居住的地方,这些地方的名字(别名)与植被和动物有关。地图和数据集是项目的结果,旨在将专业的异常研究的结果与促进探索的环境相结合。通过自动算法从立陶宛的参考基础数据集中提取了这些别名。原始的制图符号已设计用于描绘类别和种类。多比例尺地图应用程序及其探索工具使查看与特定动植物类别相关的地理名称的空间分布变得容易。通过对地图数据的分析可以断言,本地地名反映了过去几个世纪来该地区特有物种的分布。这些图由比较密度图和统计图补充。主地图的参考比例为1:500,000。
