INTEGRATED ASSESSMENT AND GISMAPPING OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL STATE OF THE CITY OF VORONEZH (RUSSIA) by Semen A. Kurolap, Oleg V. Klepikov, Pavel M. Vinogradov, Tatyana I. Prozhorina, Liudmila O. Sereda

“…The authors have created a geoinformation-analytical system (GIS) for integratedassessment and mapping of the ecological conditions of the territory according to the criteria of anthropogenic impact and quality of the urban environment, as well as the response of woody plants and the health of the child population (on the example of Voronezh – the largest industrial city of the Central Chernozem region).It has been identified that anthropogenic pollution is formed by the industrial-transportsector and varies with regard to the features of the functional planning infrastructure; near the industrial facilities of the petrochemical profile in the left-Bank sector of the city, conditions for the existence of woody plants significantly worsen, which is manifested in the inhibition of their development; child morbidity rate is significantly higher in industrially polluted neighborhoods with high load of pollutant emissions from industry and transport. …”
