The natural complex of Moscow, which includes the totality of all spatially isolated woodlands, protected areas, forests, water protection zones, historical and cultural monuments, and green spaces, makes up about 35 percent of the city's territory (without the Troitsky and Novomoskovsky administrative districts-TaNAD). The technogenic load of the surrounding megalopolis can provoke or strengthen the development of various types of dangerous exodynamic processes on the territory of natural complexes (landslides, gully erosion, the formation of sinkholes, etc.). This creates both an immediate threat to the lives of the population, and causes the risk of destruction of buildings and structures located near them. To prevent such events, it is necessary to develop a forecast of dangerous exodynamic processes and measures to eliminate their causes in a timely manner. This problem can be solved only on the basis of a series of consistently conducted studies.
