Abstract
Methodical problems of analysis of influence of the chemical atmosphere pollution due to burning casing-head gas in flares installed in the territory of petroleum and gas deposits on boreal forests using geoinformation technologies and remote probing data are described. The landscape structure of petroleum extraction territories of the southern part of West Siberia based on the treatment of space images of middle resolution obtained from the apparatus Resource-01 is estimated. The pollution zones were determined by means of modelling the scattering of the polluting agents in the atmosphere using standardized scattering models. Relative areas of polluted landscape individuals depending on the change of petroleum extraction volume were estimated.
