The content component of the discipline includes the analysis of historical, geographical, political, social, economic, geographical, design and other aspects of the development of cities and urban systems. The relevance of the discipline is due to several provisions. First, today more than half of the world's population is concentrated in cities, which are the main form of human settlement. Secondly, urban formations are focal points for the interaction of social, economic, environmental, transportation, and other issues. Understanding this and possessing the necessary information and research methods for development management contribute to their solution. Thus, thirdly, the study of the development of urban settlements and networks is important for both scientists and professionals who make decisions about the spatial organization of the development of any territory.
