The research methods of mudflow hazardous areas in the North Caucasus region are determined by the indicators that are priority in the development and study of similar areas. Mudflows require constant updating of their development territories’ maps, as well as the various parameters used to predict the mudflow threats and develop the anti-mudflow measures. The authors of the article present the indicators, values and air regime temperature, amount, composition, intensity, and also the precipitation mode, as well as the size and intensity of the modern glaciation and snow cover melting, the territorial moisture content, the presence of small rivers with large channels slopes and their flood regime. The analysis of the proposed research methods, on the basis of reliable materials and collected as a result of the mudflow phenomena study in the mountainous territory in the Republic of Ingushetia, divides the areas into three categories of mudflow hazard, and presents a medium-scale map of the mudflow hazardous areas in the Republic of Ingushetia at a scale of 1: 500 000.
