Based on the study of 102 landscape points and using geoinformation technologies, landscape maps of the developed territories of Western Yakutia were compiled at a scale of 1 : 100,000. The results of the spatial analysis of natural-territorial complexes in the territory of Udachny city, the Aikhal village, the Nakyn village and the Verkhne-Munskoye deposit are presented.
