Methodical approach to assessing the level of environmental safety of urbanized territories

Abstract

The article presents a methodological approach to combining three criteria reflecting the ecological, economic and social characteristics of an urbanized territory. In particular, attention is paid to the third stage of the methodical approach to assessing the level of environmental safety of urbanised territories. Its essence lies in the construction of a spatial diagram of a comprehensive assessment, in the three-dimensional space of which values are plotted in the form of points characterising the complex state of the environment of the considered sections of the urbanized territory. The scientific approach proposed by us and the corresponding improved method for assessing the level of environmental safety of urbanised territories will, in our opinion, allow, even at the stage of pre-project surveys, to make environmentally effective, economical and socially responsible decisions related to changes in the infrastructure of urbanised territories during the reconstruction and redevelopment of existing and construction of new urban facilities. At the next stage of the study, we plan to pay attention to the peculiarities of the negative impact on the environment of specific objects of modern infrastructure of urbanised territories, namely production facilities of certain hazard classes and shopping and entertainment centres or complexes located on sites that were previously allocated for the placement and operation of enterprises.
