The article examines the features of the spatial-temporal organization of the landscape structure in the Turkestan region, shaped by its geographical location and geological development history. The study employed landscapegeographical analysis, geomorphological studies, remote sensing (Landsat data), and cartographic modeling methods using the ArcGIS platform. Natural complexes were systematized based on morphological and genetic characteristics, and an electronic landscape map was developed to represent their spatial and morphological organization. Plains landscapes were formed under the influence of denudation and accumulation processes, with notable regions such as Kyzylkum and Muyunkum. Mountain landscapes were categorized into alpine, forest-steppe, and semi-desert ecosystems based on altitudinal zonation, and their roles within natural complexes were identified. The study revealed the spatial dynamics and development patterns of landscapes, providing a scientific foundation for effective natural resource management and environmental planning. The created electronic landscape map can serve as a basis for further research into the region’s natural complexes, their systematization, classification, and landscape zoning. Additionally, it can be used to solve practical tasks such as assessing the suitability of geosystems for specific types of environmental management, developing recommendations for efficient land use planning, and addressing the specific features of the region’s landscape structure.
