Аннотация:Sustainable management of territories of local level appears to be among the topical challenges nowadays. However nature protection areas (traditionally key areas of local econet) are still affected by numerous man-induced factors.
Thereby the results of ecodiagnostical studies (eco-geographical analysis of the territory) are of particular importance. Analysis of the quality of environment and its changes under the influence of anthropogenic factors forms a basis for identification of ecological problems, specifying problem-solving methods and elaboration of environmental policy.
In connection with ecodiagnostical research GIS-techniques allows analyzing large amount of miscellaneous information in the most efficient way as well as carrying out timely analysis and synthesis of data.
