Assessment of the environment-forming potential of the territory of populated areas in the implementation of state monitoring of lands

Abstract

The basic concept of the analysis and planning environmental management for the development of territories is its natural resource potential (NRP), understood as the territory’s set of natural resources, which can be used in the economy, taking into account the achievements of scientific and technological progress to increase social welfare. In the developing the concept of NRP the concept of forming the territories ‘environment potential (EFP) is identified. It is a set of all natural resources, the factors and conditions of the site, with environmental and environmental characteristics (including climate, geological, hydrological, land, soil, etc.). EFP is determined by a logical combination of the land in their composition. The total square of EFP lands of rural settlements in Russia is 1, 5 times more than the urban one. The ranking of the Federal value cities in concern to descending the size of total EFP is as follows

The study of changes in the land fund balance to manage the sustainable spatial development of the developed and developing territories in Russia

“…As a result of the scanty change in the shares of land in the composition of lands of various categories, we propose that indicators of changes in lands in the composition of various categories of land should be used as quantitative criteria for the development of individual entities of the Russian Federation and individual territories with a special status, primarily those which carry out more intensive economic activities related to spatial development. Probably, the optimal choice would be to use indicators of changes in the land fund in the composition of various categories of land in assessing the development of municipal territories and settlements [1,7,10]; also, studying the relationship between the indicators of changes in the land fund and the factors that determine the rate of such changes is important for further research.…”

“…The search for criteria for a proper analysis of the results of the spatial development of territories determines the relevance of the research. We have found that the spatial development of territories can be diagnosed by calculating the value of their environmentforming potential, which functionally depends on the balance of land funds in a particular territory [1]. The objective of the research was to clarify the possibilities of methods for analyzing the system of statistical information to characterize the results of the spatial development of territories and to improve quantitative methods for calculating indicators related to assessing the state and use of lands.…”

Application of the algorithm for calculating the boundaries of built-up areas from satellite images to calculating the areas of flooded land and the environmental potential of the territories of settlements

“…As the cornerstone of the work, a meaningful analysis of the seasonal decline in the value of the environmental potential (hereinafter-EFP) of the territory of the cities of Khabarovsk, Komsomolskon-Amur, Amursk, the villages of Troitskoye and Yelabuga, caused by periodic flooding of lands, was carried out. The principles and calculation algorithms for calculating the EFP were described earlier [5,6,10], the initial value of the regional specific EFP of the territory was taken as 800 points/m 2 ; the results are summarized in Tables 7 and 8.…”
