The study deals with opportunities of assessing geoinformation mapping to identify prospective areas of interregional specialization for a macroregion as a new political and economic unit of Russia. The spatial assessment method for such Siberian regions’ agricultural specialization is proposed and tested. The study covers 392 rural municipal districts, united in sixteen entities of the Russian Federation and located in four macro-regions. The analysis of the rural muni- cipalities’ productivity indicators for 2007–2018 was carried out for 26 types of crop products and 5 types of livestock ones using methods of mathematical and cartographic modeling, which enabled identifying 16 perspective food interregional clusters in South Siberian, 12 ones – in the Angara-Yenisei and 1 – in the Ural-Siberian macroregion. A Web-cartographic product “Geoportal of agricultural specialization of Siberian macroregions” was developed for solving application tasks of spatial analysis and determining the state policy measures for the development of interregional agricultural cooperation in Siberia.

grounded on the example of the use of waste heaps and optimization of tourism and recreation planning in Donetsk.

Balyk river basin for the period 2006–2017 using ArcGIS Pro statistical analysis tools are presented in this article. The information basis of the research is the local environment monitoring data of license areas of Ugra, Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug, RF. The research was implemented in two stages. At the first stage, pollution hot spots were revealed basing on the calculation of local Getis-Ord Gi* index for each year. The calculation was made taking into account the mutual location of sampling points and value of the neighborhood. At the second stage hot spots genesis for 12 years was analyzed via modelling space-and-time cube. Clustering time series of hydrocarbons average annual concentration according to the Getis-Ord Gi* indicator made it possible to determine the places of one-off pollution, most likely associated with oil spills, and to track pollutants transportation along the current. The location of the increasing river ecosystem pollution was also determined. The obtained results enable bringing out basic zones of permanent high hydrocarbon concentrations and places of periodic discharges into the river basin.
