On the example of the urbanized territories of Central Russia (the cities of Voronezh, Lipetsk, Kursk, Belgorod, Tambov and others) geoecological aspects of environmental quality are considered. The content of anthropogenic pollutants in natural environments has been estimated. In the GIS environment, the levels of environmental risk for the population of large cities are calculated. A comprehensive geoecological zoning of the studied urbanized territories was carried out. Based on geoinformation technologies, a scheme of environmental and geochemical monitoring of an industrialized city has been developed.
