Abstract
An optimized architecture of geoecological monitoring (GEM) was developed for the postwar period, based on the studied regularities of the stochastic structure inherent in various natural geosystems and the analyzed methods of observing their state. Geoecological monitoring is generally considered as a multi-purpose model geoinformation system with a corresponding physical network for observing, evaluating and forecasting the state of natural geosystems with the creation and maintenance of spatial data bases with factographic geoecological information. The purpose of GEM functioning is identification of sources causing geo-negative, in particular war-induced, impact on geosystems and supporting the adoption of post-war geo-rehabilitation and environmental decisions. The content of functional, taxon and different-level structural subsystems of geoecological monitoring is outlined. Peculiarities of taxon and functional categories of geomonitoring, as well as its types and modes, are given. A specific detail of the geomonitoring architecture is the presence of a criterion sub-unit, which contains classification features for choosing the composition and priority of any subsystems of such monitoring in the post-war period. These features include the rank and type of natural geosystems, dominant sources of anthropogenic, in particular, military impact on geosystems, and other functional-operational features. Criteria for the geoecological monitoring effectiveness are formulated.
