Abstract

Currently, geoinformation systems using Earth remote sensing data from space have taken strong positions in the field of economics, politics, and, practically, all spheres of human activity. As a consequence of human activity in urbanized areas, this is the emergence and further spread of unauthorized landfills and industrial waste. The littering of the planet is becoming an increasingly serious problem that we face in the modern world. Plastic waste, air and water pollution, improper waste disposal—all this damages the environment and can have long-term consequences for the planet and life on it. A variety of human diseases, such as chronic lung diseases, malignant tumors, and oncological diseases is directly related to atmospheric pollution, namely the gas component—landfill gas. In order to intervene in time and stop the spread of infection and changes in the soil composition of territories, etc., it is necessary to have a global automatic monitoring system for landfills and industrial waste. The purpose of the work is to design a model of a global automatic monitoring system for waste disposal facilities, including industrial ones, using Earth remote sensing technologies from space. Scientific novelty: a model of a global automatic space monitoring system for the processes of littering of the planet Earth is proposed. A general methodology is given for constructing a geoinformation model that monitors territories for the presence of waste disposal facilities. The analysis of modern prospects in the creation and operation of such automatic geoinformation systems using certain knowledge in the field of ultra-large, distributed and open data archives, as well as modern methods for improving color images, is presented.
