MONITORING THE IMPACT OF UKRAINE'S ROADS ON THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT

Natalia Sokolova

Abstract

Highways mostly have a negative impact on the environment. The environment is all living and inanimate objects that naturally exist on Earth or in part. The set of abiotic (inorganic, a non-living part of an ecosystem) and biotic (organic) factors, natural and artificial, affect ecosystems. Environmental monitoring – a complex scientific and information system regulated by the standards of periodic, continuous, long-term observations, methods of evaluation and forecasting of the state of the natural environment in order to identify its negative changes and to develop recommendations for their prevention, elimination or weakening. In order to manage the state of the environment in Ukraine there are relevant regulatory acts and regulatory and technical documents, created State Environmental Monitoring System, which is an integral part of the national information infrastructure, compatible with similar systems of other countries. The object of study is a subsystem of monitoring the impact of roads on the environment. The subject of the study is the model of the mechanism of detection of the best practices of managing environmental changes caused by the influence of roads, based on monitoring data. The problem of the article is due to a large number of necessary, often absent, heterogeneous monitoring data, uncertainty of many parameters or variables under consideration, fundamental problems of forecasting environmental changes, evaluating the economic efficiency of measures to reduce the harmful effects of roads on the environment. The purpose is to study the possibility of using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method to determine the effectiveness of options for reducing the negative impact of roads on the environment. Materials and methods are the results of world and domestic scientific research, system analysis, mathematical modeling, method of analysis of the functioning of the environment (DEA), analysis of reports on environmental impact evaluation. The conducted researches have made the use of DEA methodology to build assessment tools and optimize environmental solutions on the impact of roads on the environment
