The first zoning map describing environmental-geological processes in Azerbaijan was prepared by the Complex Hydro-Geology and Engineering Geology Expedition of the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources, the Expedition’s Chief Engineer Shaig Niftiyev told.
The map was drawn on the basis of the results of environmental-geological monitoring conducted in the country through many years. Niftiyev said the zoning map would describe intensity of landslides, floods, land erosion and other environmental-geological processes in the country’s territory.
The chief engineer said the work on this map was completed and it would be sent to the relevant organizations to be published soon.
