Abstract

The article gives new information on integrated assessment of the environmental impact of mining in the south of Russia’s Far East. The assessment is based on: Earth remote sensing data; normalized difference vegetation index for nature-technology systems; combination of the calculated vegetation index and digital relief model to implement individual estimation of the induced impact and natural effects; joint analysis of the induced impact based on satellite monitoring and field survey data; computation of ecological-and-economic damage.
