Abstract

The article discusses the aspects for the creation of multidimensional space-time (3D raster, time) models of the Arctic Region. The notion of multi-dimensional space-time models, their modifiable data structures, methods of formation, spatial analysis and visual reproduction are discussed. The sources of initial spatial and temporal data are indicated and their main types are provided. The options for visualization of the constructed experimental models of the Arctic in the form of their virtual geoimages with specified properties are submitted. The perspectives of the reported studies are considered and their importance as the perspective basis for the Arctic environmental management is highlighted. The possibilities and limitations associated with the use of satellite images of various resolutions, ground-based spectroradiometry, quantitative and qualitative analysis of the state of vegetation for assessing the state of ecosystems under different types of use are considered, including the creation of a library of spectral feature of plants in the North for monitoring the state of ecosystems in the sphere of impact of mining enterprises.

Keywords

The Arctic Region environmental management, multi-dimensional space-time models of the environment, thematic feature spaces, virtual geoimages, virtual mod-elling, remotely-sensed images, spectral libraries.
