Abstract

The purpose of tourism assessment of the terrain is to contribute to the economic development of the area under study. When tourism was chosen as a direction contributing to the development of Armenia’s economy, interest in the recreational value of the area began to increase. In the article, a recreational evaluation of the format (morphometric) relief indicators of the Bazum mountain range was made, which was carried out based on the indicators of fragmentation depth, fragmentation density, surface slopes and orientations. Large-scale thematic maps of the area were made, and analysis of these maps was performed. The analysis of this and similar nature allow not only to assess the possibilities of tourism development in Lori Region, but also to outline the development prospects of this branch. A scale was built for the assessment, and ATC technologies were used. For the purpose of calculating the indicators, we used the opportunities provided by GIS, the ArcGIS 10.5 software system was used. The purpose of the research is to evaluate the morphometric indicators of the relief of the Bazum mountain range from the point of view of recreation development.
