Abstract. The compiled map of Quaternary formations on a scale of 1:1000,000 gives a visual representation of the structure of the Quaternary cover of the Spitsbergen archipelago. By analyzing remote sensing data (satellite images, aerial photographs, digital elevation models), interpreting previously published and field materials, generalization of existing data was carried out, and new information was obtained on the structure of Quaternary formations of the studied area.
