Environmental risk zones mapping using satellite monitoring data

The study is devoted to the mapping of areas of environmental risk. Risk assessment is based on a satellite monitoring data and an evaluation of the impact of air pollution on the vegetation cover of urban areas. Ecological risk zones mapping is shown on the example of Norilsk industrial zone impact on vegetation cover. There is a brief description of the existing system of satellite monitoring data of sulfur dioxide emission for the Norilsk industrial zone. Our approach for risk assessment mapping uses elastic grid method for generating elastic net and visualising spatial satellite data from OMI and OMPS databases. The results of calculations based on the methodology of mapping zones of environmental risk are presented.
