Abstract
Aim. The purpose of the paper is to identify the main patterns of territorial distribution of military-historical objects in the Kursk region using geoinformation systems.
Methodology. The cartographic method of research using GIS technologies is chosen as the main method, since thematic maps provide a more complete and visual picture of the spatial placement of military-historical objects in the region under study.
Results. Cartographic materials of military graves in the Kursk region were created for the first time. New approaches and methods for preserving the Russian military memorial heritage with the help of modern GIS technologies were developed, which are an important ‘tool’ in the field of accounting for military graves. Using interactive Web GIS, a Web map of military graves of the Kursk region was created, which is an example of visualization of spatial data and the main interface for working with information, which makes the data more accessible to a wide audience of the modern society.
Research implications. The results of the study show that mapping the sites of WWII events using GIS technologies is important in preserving the military-historical heritage as an important factor in the socio-economic development of the Kursk region.
