Abstract
The method allowed to simulate the configuration of the road network between the settlements is developed. The proposed optimization approach provides compromise between the long and laboriousness (relief, water obstacles). Using historical maps (the map of Vyatka province 1888-1898 gg.)for verification of the model has proven the reliability of the simulation results. It is shown the using of cartographic information from historical maps can significantly improve the results of modeling the configuration of roads.
