Abstract
The article describes methodology behind the economic subdivision of Tomsk Oblast into districts. The theoretical basis for district identification is the concepts of propulsion industries, poles and axes of growth. We divide the area of the region into three economic zones, depending on the density of economic activity, their specialization and distance from Tomsk. The article sets development priorities for different parts of Tomsk Oblast until 2030. Tomsk agglomeration, center of research and hi-tech industries, has been identified as the main spatial development priority. We introduce multiple scenarios of spatial development that depend on the implementation of major infrastructure projects.
