The pre-Caspian basin has been formed from Paleozoic to Cenozoic time and the Kashagan field is situated in the southern part of Pre-Caspian depression in the Southern flung of Astrakhan-Aktyubinsk elevation system of basal complex and associated with Tengiz- Kashagan interbasin carbonate platform. The platform is composed of separate carbonate early Carboniferous blocks resting on the common Devonian (late Fransian-Fammenian) carbonate base. Four of them are: Kashagan, Kashagan South-West, Aktote and Kairan are l...

This research is devoted to elaboration of common principles for using cartographic information (especially Digital Elevation Model and thematic maps) and remote sensing data in definition of criteria of coastal morphosystems state. There are discussed some different approaches to the problem of using cartographic information like descriptions, graphical and grapho-analytical methods for DEM analysis much as topographic maps analysis as well as study of structure, dynamics and correlation for thematic maps analysi...

This paper is devoted to a quite new development stage of Geoinformatics when science turns from specialists to mass users. Some time ago Cartography went by the same way. However, there is a danger to have too many GIS-makers like map-makers and to forget that Geoinformation systems should be considered not only as entertainment thing but also as decision-making tool. Especially it is a topical question if we speak about remote sensing data, which recently became available for each Internet-user, and Google masss...

For Geo-Science education it is very important not only know what it could be looked like and how it could be used but also can use it to differ one thing from another and etc. Geo-students should learn our planet by using different methods based on modern technologies. This paper is devoted to one of them that has high developed last time – the Earth Remote Sensing. There is successful experience of the Remote Sensing Centers creation at different Universities of Russia, Kazakhstan, Spain and other countries. R...
