Abstract

Geoinformation systems (GIS) are actively used in modern scientific research, including the field of Urban Territories’ management. The lack of a universal methodology for their application requires an individual approach in the study of water management and water and environmental problems in the region. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate concrete examples of GIS successful use in solving some water supplying problems. One of the leading research methods is geoinformation-cartographic modeling, which has a wide range of possibilities and contributes to the effective solution of water-related and water-ecological regional problems. The developed algorithm for GIS using in solving regional water, a step-by-step procedure organizes for carrying out research work, the presented structure of the thematic database facilitates the systematizatin of thematic data large volume with the base a GIS project is created, where information is integrated, calculations, and a cartographic model is created that visualizes the regional water management and water-e logical situation. The research examples carried out in the Institute of Hydrometeorology of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Siberian Branch) on regional water management and water ecological problems by means of GIS and using the method of geoinformation-cartographic modeling considered in this paper prove the effectiveness and their use expediency.

Highlights

  • Modern software and computer technologies are used in virtually all spheres of human activity

  • According to the research projects held in the Institute of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Siberian Branch): "Spatiotemporal organization of natural-economic systems in watersheds: a strategy for water use and ensuring hydroecological safety in Siberia" (2013-2016); " Research of the current state and scientific substantiation and means for ensuring the sustainable functioning of the methods water management complex in the Ob and Irtysh rivers basins " (2008-2010) and "Formation, transformation and use of water resources, development of scientific bases for their protection and management based on the basin approach "(2010-2012) demonstrates the results of Geoinformation systems (GIS) application in solving water and waterenvironmental problems in the region

  • Population Economy (gross regional product (GRP), the goods of own manufacture are shipped, works and services are performed by own forces by kinds of economic activity, manufacture of industrial and agricultural production, water capacity of GRP, water intensity of economic activity kinds, the forecast of production calculation, works and services)

Summary

Introduction

Modern software and computer technologies are used in virtually all spheres of human activity. It should be noted that a universal methodology for GIS use is not available and an individual project-oriented approach is required in the study of water management and water environmental problems in the region. The following tasks are solved: development of an algorithm for the operational actions sequence in the GIS; development of the thematic database (DB) structure and its content; GIS project creation for water management and water-ecological orientation; interpretation and visualization of quantitative and qualitative data for the water management and water environmental problems assessment in the region.
