    The transition to the use of new information technology means is a characteristic feature of the modern general education and higher school. The programs of informatization are being implemented and the means of education informatization are being developed in the educational process of the educational institutions of Tatarstan within the framework of the priority national project "Education".Modern educational standards also pay special attention to the need of competence development in the use of information and communication technologies, including the formation and the development of competence in the use of information and communication technologies at the public level, including the possession of information and communication technologies, the search, the design and transfer. Similarly, the requirements for the subject results of an in-depth geography course mastering should reflect the ability to use geoinformation systems [8].Taking into account the expanding possibilities of computers, the growth of information cognitive activity of students and the persons just interested in geography and ecology, the task of a qualitatively new educational GIS creation combining data from toponymy, cartography and geography is a relevant one. The educational process at educational institutions requires the creation of teaching aids that will simplify the learning process. Within geography, which is common both at schools and at universities, geoinformation systems should become such a unique teaching tool.The use of GIS will improve the visibility, the perception of material, the variability of the cartographic image, but it does not contain a learning component.Keywords: education, geographic information systems, geography program

    Proceedings of the XXV ISUF International Conference “Urban Form and Social Context: from Traditions to Newest Demands” (Krasnoyarsk, July 5–9, 2018)The development of urban areas in Russia is closely linked to the problem of resettlement, which is based on two key factors: the size of the population of our country and the extent of the territory. The ratio of the population is about 150 million people, and the size of the territory is over 17 million km2. It makes it possible to estimate the population density: about 9 people per km2. While in other countries the density is much higher: in the USA, 30 people per km2, in Germany 229, in France 109 correspondingly. However, the resettlement of the population in our country is fairly selective. The main territory (more than 60% of the territory) is inhabited very poorly, less than 1 person per km2. Difficulties with proportional settlement are linked not only with the climatic features of particular territories (sharply continental climate, mountainous terrain, wetlands, etc.), but also with limited access to resources, including material and financial resources. Another significant factor affecting the resettlement feature is the significant distance between centres for the extraction of raw materials and its processing centers for the production and consumption of energy, which determines the high cost of infrastructure solutions for creating comfortable living conditions in remote areas

    © MCSER-Mediterranean Center of Social and Educational Research. The current economic growth rate in the Republic of Tatarstan cannot serve as the only progress and welfare index of the region. This can be due to the fact that the continual economic growth of public welfare caused a number of adverse effects, such as environmental disorder, social strain intensification, etc. that is why it is necessary to reinforce another measure of our further well-being. This article specificates a particular criterion, forming part of the integral “life quality” rate, i.e. the expected life expectancy at birth. To complete this task a profound scientific research at a regional level is required. This article presents results of an analysis of life expectancy rate at birth as a way to evaluate life quality in the Republic of Tatarstan. The research results show that there is a territorial and gender disparity. The authors make this fact conditional on job distinctive features, unhealthy lifestyle, carelessness which leads to disregard one’s own health. So, they suggest including this rate as an indicative one while assessing the heads of the Republic of Tatarstan municipal units. This research aims to assess life quality from the perspective of life expectancy at birth. This work presents a monitoring of expected lifespan for the Republic of Tatarstan population as compared to other regions of the Volga Region Federal District. It also considers the situation within the republic at a municipal level. Practical implementation of the recommendations drawn up in the course of the research will promote development of a reasonable regional programme to maintain and improve public welfare. This research is based on traditional methods: cartographical (methodologically founded on subject and complex mapping and advances in geoinformation technologies), comparative and descriptive, spatial analysis method and the statistical one. Processing and analysis of fact sheets was carried out with the help of special geoinformation, cartographic and statistic software
