The goal of the research is to develop components of the method aimed at output of information on relief-forming processes from archival and current remote sensing (RS) data with the use of the latest data-processing technologies, including photogrammetry and geoinformation systems (GIS). The proposed components of the methods are highly informative and economically effective. The object under study is located at the border of two active tectonic structures, the South Tatar arch and Melekesskian depression in the south-eastern part of the East European platform (Fig. 1). Based on the study results, it is confirmed that neotectonic movements in the area under study and its recent geodynamical setting are directly related (Fig. 5). It is demonstrated that the morphometric method can be efficiently applied to predict zones of high geodynamic activity and to determine locations of such zones.
