Using high-resolution satellite images and remote sensing methods, allows assessing the state of glacial lakes and their dynamics in Kyrgyz Range. According to the remote sensing data, we identified the number, location, area and altitude of glacial lakes, and based on remote satellite data, we selected potentially more dangerous glacial lakes, which we assessed the stability of the lake-dam in the fieldwork. GIS-based analysis of various satellite images have obtained image data to make map of glacial lakes and to research evolution of glacial lakes. The results showed, that the variation of glacial lakes in Kyrgyz Range were very high and many glacial lakes appeared new between 2008 and 2018. Such strong variations of glacial lakes shows high probability of outbursts in the future.
