Abstract
The article deals with the study of cartographic materials of the 19th-20th centuries, related to the database of regional studies of the Mongolian-Manchurian world at the beginning of the 20th century. The synthesis of natural-science and humanitarian research methods is relevant for solving the set scientific problems. The analysis of foreign sources made it possible to study the main scientific approaches used by foreign authors, expand the scientific horizons and gain access to unique historical and statistical data. The use of geographical maps made it possible to study a significant amount of various information in a concentrated and generalized form, which is an undoubted advantage in the study of a vast territory and a significant time period. The analysis of the data obtained is the basis for a detailed study of historical, political, institutional, socio-economic processes. The interdisciplinary nature of the results obtained can be useful to researchers in various fields of knowledge. The results obtained make it possible to supplement scientific knowledge about this region, which is the basis for the creation of the GIS system “Mongolian-Manchurian species at the beginning of the 20th century”.
