The article analyzes the experience of sociological research on the assessment of social comfort of the population. In connection with the need to accurately and quickly analyze large volumes obtained spatially distributed information that is relevant in sociological research, proposed extensive use of geographic information systems and GIS technologies, combining traditional operations when working with databases (queries and statistical analysis) with the advantages of a full-fledged graphical visualization and geographic analysis. The tasks of further development of sociological studies are solved in the first place, based on the search and use of new mathematical methods and geoinformation-cartographic modeling, as well as determine the optimal ways to graphical visualization of the results.
