Economic activity led to significant transformations of natural landscapes of the Chuvash Republic. There is a change in certain components of geosystems and naturalterritorial complexes as a whole. In order to rationalize environmental management, the analysis of the types and degree of anthropogenic load was carried out. The ratio of different lands was taken as parameters of the analysis. It was based on the share of farmlands, settlement zone, forests and natural landscapes. On the example of the model region of the Chuvash Republic 5 main types of areas were analyzed: upland, slope, terrace, floodplain and valley-river (valleys of small rivers). The factor of different stability of terrain types was taken into account. For uplands it is taken as a unit, and decreases in other types of terrain. On the basis of the analysis of the state of geosystems, the groups of districts were identified and measures were developed to reduce the anthropogenic load on landscapes.
