Aim. Conducting epizootological and epidemiological zoning ofthe territory of North Caucasus Federal Region (NCFR) by the degree of non-welfare by anthrax using Arc GIS10 program. Materials and methods. 2 parameters were used during zoning of the territories of subjects of NCFR (Stavropol Region, Karachaevo-Cherkessia, Kabardino-Balkaria, Chechen, North Ossetia-Alania, Ingushetia, Dagestan Republics) by non-welfare by anthrax: integrated parameter of infection risk and epizootics risk. The parameters were input into the Arc GIS10 program. Materials on infection of humans and animals with anthrax for the last 55 (1960 - 2014) years were used. Results. The regions of the territories of NCFR subjects were distributed by non-welfare degree into 4 groups: group 1 - regions with a low degree of non-welfare, group 2 - regions with an average degree of non-welfare, group 3 - regions with a high degree of non-welfare, group 4 - regions with a very high degree of non-welfare. Conclusion. Taking into account high parameters of spread and intensity of epizootological and epidemiological situation, regions of groups 3 and 4 could be classified as endemic territories for anthrax, whereas all the other regions could be attributed to the zone of sporadic infection manifestation.
