| Summary: | Geoecological zoning of water areas is necessary for detailed and timely monitoring of the environment conditions of the marine ecosystems. However, unlike land-based mapping, the principles of the zoning of marine areas vary widely due to the uncertainty of the research object. Hence, there is still no generally accepted views and scientific approaches to this problem. This paper suggests the methodology that may be used to prepare and store information on the sea zoning using GIS. One of the most widely used principles of geoecological mapping of the marine ecosystems is a landscape-ecological approach, which is widely used in the preparation of the complex geoecological maps of the Barents sea. It has also being used in mapping of geoecological maps for a set of state geological maps of the shelf scale 1:1Mln. Mapping using this approach includes the identification of the features of the seafloor landscapes, their typing, zoning and development of the environmentally sound recommendations for the exploration and other activities in the offshore zones.
