Abstract
The research presents the results of the methodology developed for assessing areas by risk analysis of hazardous geological and technogenic processes which was applied to the territory of Solotvyno township (Transcarpathia, Ukraine).The probability of hazards has been determined, the vulnerability of the risk elements has been assessed, possible consequences of dangerous geological processes have been assessed, and the quantification of possible consequences and risks has been performed. Methods of statistical data processing and probability theory have been used with reliance on the geoinformation approach. Possible losses from the occurrence of hazardous geological processes (karst, landslides, subsidence, flooding, floods) in Solotvino are shown on the map of integrated economic risks. This methodology could be applied to post-mining areas to substantiate the strategy towards reducing natural and man-induced hazards.
