A spatial geo-ecological understanding of nature-society interaction is comprised of a theoretical development of a systemic approach and modeling, automation, and management of geotechnologies. From interrelationships between natural landscapes and anthropogenic infrastructure, delimitation, classification, and mapping of geo-ecological units of landscape are obtained. In the analysis, 30 units of physical-geographical landscapes are delimited, supported on natural components and shaded terrain model. Subsequently, by overlapping matrix proceedings with the type of land use and land cover, 247 geo-ecological units to describe the urban, peri-urban, and rural areas were determined and characterized.
