Abstract

The importance of highways in the mountainous regions of Georgia is very great for the socio-economic development of the country. Such natural disasters as snow avalanches significantly damage the road infrastructure, create delays in movement, often cause human casualties. Therefore, in order to implement preventive measures, the study of avalanche hazards on highways is of great importance. Mestia municipality of Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti region (Zemo Svaneti) is characterized by mountainous and high-mountain terrain, snow avalanches are frequent, including on sections of highways. Avalanche hazards on highways of Mestia municipality of Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti region and climatic factors of their occurrence are studied. The data of the Mestia meteorological station on air temperature and solid precipitation covering the years 1961-2021 have been processed. A geo-informational map of the avalanche danger of highways in the Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti region has been compiled. Keywords: Snow avalanches, climate, natural disaster, highways, geoinformation map

格鲁吉亚Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti地区高速公路上的雪崩危险

格鲁吉亚山区的高速公路对该国的社会经济发展非常重要。雪崩等自然灾害严重破坏道路基础设施，造成交通延误，经常造成人员伤亡。因此，对公路雪崩灾害进行研究，对实施预防措施具有十分重要的意义。梅斯蒂亚市的Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti地区(Zemo Svaneti)的特点是多山和高山地形，雪崩经常发生，包括在高速公路的部分。研究了萨梅格雷罗-泽莫-斯瓦涅季地区梅斯蒂亚市公路上的雪崩灾害及其发生的气候因素。对梅斯蒂亚气象站1961-2021年的气温和固体降水资料进行了处理。已经编制了Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti地区高速公路雪崩危险的地理信息地图。关键词:雪崩，气候，自然灾害，公路，地理信息地图
