Scientists from the Civil Engineering Institute of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University are conducting research aimed at identifying and systematizing natural and climatic data of the Arctic zone of Russia.

The project is being implemented under the scientific supervision of Yuri Lazarev, professor at the Higher School of Industrial, Civil and Road Construction. The head of the research group is Liliya Talipova, senior lecturer at the Institute of Civil Engineering and Road Construction. Yegor Grebenyuk, engineer at the Higher School of Industrial, Civil and Road Construction, and Evgenia Morozova, assistant, are also working on the project.

At the current stage of research, the team has developed a database that includes geological, climatic, ecological and environmental data of the Arctic region of Russia. In the course of implementing the database, the attributive characteristics, requirements for the structure and storage of data are being clarified. At the moment, a computer program is being developed that allows for automatic updating of the developed database.

The result of the project will be a GIS (geographical information system) platform that designers will be able to use at the initial stages of designing both linear and area objects in permafrost conditions. The planned release date for the platform is March 2026.

The development of the platform allows for the collection and processing of data, modeling of processes, and analysis at the pre-project stage. The developed database made it possible to systematize spatial, geological and geotechnical, climatic, environmental and nature conservation data, noted Liliya Talipova.
