Abstract

This article examines the current distribution and density of green spaces within Almaty through the lens of spatial analysis, aiming to uncover underlying patterns. A key focus is placed on assessing both the numerical and experiential qualities of these green areas, considering factors like tree health, size of green spaces, planting frequency, and the ease with which residents can access them. This study employs a multifaceted approach, integrating statistical data, cartographic insights, geoinformation analysis, and remote sensing techniques.

This study exposes a disparity in green space distribution throughout the city's administrative districts, a situation that detrimentally impacts the ecological equilibrium and overall quality of the urban environment. Furthermore, the landscaping in numerous areas falls short of contemporary urban planning and sanitation guidelines. For enhanced analytical precision, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are employed to visually represent spatial data, in conjunction with Landsat satellite imagery and the NDWI (Normalized Difference Water Index) to determine soil moisture content.

This article utilizes thematic maps and analytical data to showcase the prevailing trends in Almaty's expanding green infrastructure. The gathered information provides a foundation for crafting strategies aimed at sustainable urban growth, establishing ecological benchmarks, and enhancing the precision of cadastral assessments for urban areas.
