Published information about databases of digitized geobotanical relevés promotes cooperation between researchers who analyze vegetation biodiversity, exchange of used data and, therefore, the representativeness of research. The article provides an overview of the history, how the database of forest relevés was created, and considers the tasks in the solution of which it was used. The current stage of work is characterized: the improvement of the database structure, features of the stored information, replenishment of the database, the issues of administration and organization of cooperation. Based on the analysis of modern trends in vegetation science and taking into account the peculiarities of the information stored in the database, actual scientific problems are formulated, in the work on which the use of the base is promising, and technical tasks that need to be solved.

Key words: boreal and hemiboreal forests, geobotanical relevés, computer database, forest classification, biodiversity analysis.
