Abstract
Results of environmental monitoring of a coal section in the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan on the basis of satellite data (the seasonal temporary Landsat 4-5, 7, 8 series (ETM, OLI)) and pictures from the pilotless flying device are presented in this article.This monitoring is when using spectrally - the dynamic signs taken from temporary series of values of vegetative indexes (NDVI) from 2002 for 2016, for 2019 from the unmanned aerial vehicle.For realization of this process the program PhotoScan 1.2 and QGis3.6 complexes are used. The presented methods of remote sensing of the earth allow: to expand possibilities of environmental monitoring due to increase in frequency of obtaining relevant information; obtaining images of high quality; information processing in short terms by various indexes.The research confirms that increase in acreage, the mineral deposits broken by open mining operations when developing, negatively influences change of indicators of the vegetative NDVI index.
