Use of the first soil maps gives an opportunity inclusion into scientific circulation of very interesting and extensive material obtained on basis of the developed VV Dokuchaev methodologic (genetic) approach. These maps are actively involved for evaluation of agro-ecological soil features, search of connections and regularities between some socio-economic and soil-geographical characteristics, for description of XIXth c. soil cover. A comparison of units from the Soil map of European Russia and the Soil map of Nizhegorodskaya gubernia by GIS-method enables to trace a transformation of soil cover mapping and their classifications, find a central image of a soil type of the Soil map of European Russia. It has been ascertained that on the first stage of the development of soil classification an information transfer from the gubernia maps to the map of European Russia mainly was realized by a generalization of data. Almost every type of soils on the map of European Russia (M 1:2520000) is represented by two or three dominant groups of soils and some accompanying soils on the map of Nizhegorodskaya gubernia (M 1:420000).
