Employing interpretative methods, data of satellite imagery that identifi es features of karst and karstsuff osion objects have been revealed for the central part of the East European platform. Karst and karstsuff osion processes form the landscape nonuniformity due to the development of open and covered karst. Th e density of sinkhole distribution has been compiled for topographic sheets N-37-XVI, XXII. Suff osion-covered sinkholes and depression areas of open karst have been displayed according to the analysis of high-resolution satellite imagery. Th e work was performed as part of space-based geological research accompanying additional geomapping of topographic sheets N-37-XVI, XXII.
