Abstract The development of the Arctic shelf involves the development of mineral resources and monitoring of the environmental situation in the Far North with the implementation of work outdoors in extremely adverse weather conditions. In this case, it is necessary to take into account the stable constancy of negative temperatures. Work on a rotational basis does not solve this problem. This article proposes a methodology for taking into account environmental parameters when assessing the working conditions of nonstationary workplace. As an example, an assessment is given of the workplace of the lineman of main pipeline. It is proposed to use geographic information systems as a technology that allows determining environmental parameters. The responsible person quickly and thoroughly evaluates the work environment based on the existing spatial reference of information to various non-stationary workplaces. The proposed method for assessing and optimizing the time of work will not only minimize technological risks as a whole, but also minimize the damage to the health of workers who are forced to perform work in extremely adverse conditions.
