Socio-economic assessment of the negative impact of development of new areas in Transbaikalia on the traditional nature use with the use of gis technology

Abstract

The problem of the depletion of natural resources potential of traditional nature use of indigenous peoples of the North Siberia as a consequence of industrial development projects is discussed in the paper. A quantitative assessment of negative impact for traditional nature use is performed with the use of geoinformation modeling. Case-study for Evenk people husbandry in Kalar district of the Zabaikalsky krai under condition of infrastructural development is a specifi c component of the research. Modern tools of geographic information systems can effectively take into account the natural conditions and features of the studied area.
