Abstract

Special types of monitoring of natural and anthropogenic disasters as basic elements of complex monitoring of dangerous phenomena are considered. Particular attention is paid to space sensing. The results of using some of them are given. The technique of forest fire forecasting using space monitoring is described, as well as the results of constructing Kohonen networks for studying meteorological hazards, the technique of flood forecasting on the rivers of southern Russia and the results of its testing are presented. A description of the system of operational forecasting of the Neva floods based on mathematical models is given.
