Abstract

The current ecological situation in Ukraine can be described as the most critical, which was formed over a long period due to the neglect of the objective laws of development and reproduction of the natural resource complex and in connection with current events. The level of pollution by various substances exceeds the norm not only in the so-called "work zones" and war zones, but also in sleeping areas and recreational areas. The cities of industrial zones of Ukraine, in particular the cities of its eastern part, are most prone to risk. Recreational zones are created in order to provide people with the opportunity to rest and reduce the burden on the human body from the urbanized atmosphere of cities. But practice shows that the situation in recreation areas is also not satisfactory, and in some cases even more dangerous than in other places of the settlement. The most unfortunate thing is that most people do not even suspect that these places are as dangerous as, for example, work areas. The main goal of our research is to confirm the hypothesis regarding the high level of atmospheric air pollution in the city of Kramatorsk and to create a tool for notifying the population of this information. That is why the task of creating a convenient, accessible, functional, accurate interactive map of the state of environmental pollution in the city's recreation areas, which could enable residents to choose the least polluted recreation areas at the current moment, is urgent. On the basis of the analysis of the existing literature and the conducted research, a complex mathematical model was developed for the assessment of atmospheric air pollution in the recreational areas of the city of Kramatorsk, which consists of determining the exact distance between the source of pollution and the recreational area, forecasting the level of concentration of a separate substance in the recreational area, and determining the general state of pollution, which is expressed by a certain color of the corresponding recreation area on the interactive map. A software product in the form of an interactive map was developed to inform the population about the predicted level of atmospheric air pollution in the recreational areas of the city of Kramatorsk.
