Objective. The aim of the study is to identify important features of the geoecological study of cities, as well as to consider the main approaches and methods that are used in the geoecological analysis of morphologically heterogeneous indicators. Materials and methods. The object of research is geosystems in geography and ecosystems in ecological science. It is this systematic approach that brings ecology and geography closer together. Results. As a result of the interaction of society with the natural environment, one can see a new branch of knowledge - geoecology. So, it is necessary to take into account spatial or territorial patterns. The science of geoecology is the link between geography and ecology for solving various problems of the natural environment. Exactly, we can talk about the spatio-temporal features that have the interaction of organisms with the environment and territorially differentiated systems of relationships. Conclusion. At the present time, the modern interest of society in environmental science is quite explainable. Its main problem is survival in those conditions of the natural environment, which are greatly changed as a result of human economic activity. All over the world, a large role is assigned to the health of the population due to the problem of anthropogenic pollution of the environment. It causes significant damage in the geographical, biological, economic spheres, as well as its individual enterprises. There is a serious threat of violations not only of the biosphere, geosphere, atmosphere, but, in general, the entire geographic envelope. The first area is the subject of environmental research, and the second area is geography. As a result of these events, one can undoubtedly speak of a huge similarity and overlap between these sciences.
