Abstract

A new geoinformation technology for monitoring the hydrometeorological situation in the Arctic is considered. This technology combines two levels of the geodata analysis. The first level supports automatic loading and processing of data, providing the operator with simple tools of the analysis with an intuitive interface and visual representation of results available to a wide range of users. The second level is designed for the comprehensive analysis of hypotheses that experts can formulate at the first level. The monitoring platform has two software applications: (1) climatic processes in the Arctic and (2) operative and forecast conditions in the regions of the White and Barents seas with the possibility of analyzing the environmental threats during extraction and transportation of hydrocarbons.
