Efficient operation of transport facilities considerably depends on the climatic conditions in their location. Unfortunately, road design standards that are currently in effect in the Russian Federation fail to take adequate account of specific climatic conditions of certain Russian territories. The problem of organization and integration of information flows with account for the geographic complexes for the purpose of climatic zoning of areas is considered in the article. The procedure of data collection and processing at the stage of zoning is demonstrated. It encompasses four stages of research, including the study of the local environment, research into road zoning in certain territories using traditional district zoning methods or new mathematical techniques aimed at the resolution of road-related problems, application of zoning-related findings in design, construction, repair and maintenance of highways. The research covered in this article is particularly relevant due to the insufficient regard of the climatic conditions at the stage of design of highways for such areas as Siberia and the Far East of Russia.<br>Рассмотрена проблема организации и интеграции информационных потоков, учитывающих геокомплексы зонального и интразонального характера при территориальном дорожно-климатическом районировании. Показана схема сбора и обработки данных на этапах выделения зон, подзон и дорожных районов. Актуальность материалов статьи обусловлена недостаточным учетом особенностей природно-климатических условий при проектировании автомобильных дорог во вновь осваиваемых районах России, например, Сибири и Дальнего Востока.
