ASSESMENT OF RUSSIAN REGIONS IN TERMS OF THE AIR POLLUTION LEVEL
Abstract
Basing on the integrated assessment of air pollution in the Russian Federation from 2004 to 2014, two methods are suggested for classifying regions with due account of fuzzy units. Specific features of mapping fuzzy units using different types of hatching, shades of black or various colors are discussed. Additional graphical techniques increase the visibility of classifications and provide information about specific features of individual territorial units.
