Abstract—It is suggested that a monitoring system for regional nature management be established. It should cover all components of regional nature management, i.e., all links of spatial structures of nature management. It is necessary to organize such a monitoring for natural-resource areas with detailed information on compact territorial combinations of natural resources within an integral geosystem. The components of spatial structures of nature management and, accordingly, the objects of monitoring are the resource-containing components of the geosystem with their basic characteristics, the types of activity existing in the area, and the volumes used by certain natural resources, as well as the calculated characteristics of their changes and the dynamics due to technogenic influences and inter-resource relationships. It is proposed to monitor a total of approximately seven fragments of the various indicators presented in the tabular (matrix) form: a territorial combination of natural resources, activities, their direct and return (due to technogenic influences) resource consumption, inter-resource relationships, total changes of natural-resource potential, and the ecological status of the environment. Modeling of changes of the types of activity, including an exception of some types and the inclusion of new ones, is possible. In this case, alternative calculations can be performed and the most effective of them can be selected. It is suggested that geoinformation technologies and large databases should be used in the monitoring system.
