Abstract
The ongoing change of atmosphere and environmental parameters of Earth inflicted by anthropogenic load, as well as by industrial and military objects requires reliable evaluation of the ecological situation and its anticipation with a view to provide ecological security. This process entails forecasting of further favorable conditions or negative outcomes development and decision-making based on ecological monitoring through environmental monitoring automatized systems (decision-support systems).
Notably, all above mentioned environmental and anthropogenic components are linked with a unique component such as the dimensional factor (geographical location). As we know, the best tool to process spatial data is Geographic Information System (therefrom — GIS). The modern full-functional GIS platform allows not only to set up the geographic information system of any scale and designation, but also to develop the efficient system of ecological monitoring unified with the decision-support system. At the same time, it should include the following data array: air pollution, hydrosphere pollution, land pollution, technogenic pollution, vegetation cover, as well as public health.
