The methodology developed by the scientists of the Dubna University was adopted as a method for the calculations. This technique differs in that, on a single methodological basis, using physically measurable quantities and expressed in one unit of measurement, to assess the resource potential of the region. This approach is universal for all regions of the world. The scenarios for the development of the subjects of the Siberian Federal District in the economic, social and environmental spheres have been established. The classification of regions is carried out in relation to the extensive and innovative development of the economy and society.
