Abstract
<jats:p>The Arctic region has significant potential for the extraction of mineral and energy resources. However, effective resource development requires careful and balanced decisions that minimize environmental impact and ensure sustainable resource management. This article discusses the development of a conceptual model of the ontology of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, focused on logistics and digital infrastructure. Ontology is a powerful tool for organizing areas of knowledge, providing a formal representation of concepts and their interrelationships. The main classes, relations, attributes and rules of functioning of the ontological model are defined. The significance of digitalization and logistic routes in the extreme climate of the Arctic is demonstrated. The proposed ontology systematizes information about logistics and digital components of the Arctic region of Russia. It allows creating a structured knowledge base that will enable stakeholders to analyze complex interdependencies, develop effective management strategies and make informed decisions that contribute to sustainable development in this vulnerable ecosystem. In developing the ontology, we aim to provide a unified view of the Arctic’s logistics and digital sphere, which helps stakeholders better navigate the complex system of challenges and opportunities.</jats:p>
