ARTICLE ANNOTATION

quote
This paper investigates the application of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for zoning hazardous sand-drift areas along highways. A comprehensive approach based on the integration of climatic, topographic, geological, and historical data is proposed to identify the most vulnerable road sections. The main stages of GIS-based analysis are described, including wind flow mapping, sand transport modeling, risk zoning, and real-time forecasting and monitoring of hazardous events. Based on the obtained results, a system of protective measures is proposed, including the installation of wind barriers, regular sand removal operations, and temporary traffic management during extreme weather conditions. The study demonstrates that the use of GIS enhances road safety, reduces maintenance costs, and enables a shift from reactive to proactive risk management for sand drifts on highways.
