The importance of human-geographical terminology-knowledge as area of theory of geographical science is emphasized in this artikle. Human-geographical terminology-knowledge highlights the terms, terminology, systems of terms, the approaches of their creation and functioning. As the main issues of human-geographical terminology research are determined: lexicography, unification of terms, standardization of terms, the creation of categories and databases, translation of terms, editing of terms, and organizational. The place of human-geographical terminology- knowledge in the system of scientific knowledge on the logical cross-section of general terminology, theory of geographical science and history of geographic science is revealed.

It is established that the importance of human-geographical terminological research is determined by many factors. The most important among them is the dynamic development of theoretical and methodological thoughts in human geography, which leads to the emergence of new concepts and terms. In particularly there is a significant increase of sociologization, environmentalization of terminology; intensive development of political and geographical, geopolitical terminology; active involvement of the terminology of the post-industrial, informational society; an interdisciplinary terminology on global and regional development issues is occured; created terminology based on the usage of geoinformation method of research.

To systematize human-geographical terminology, a scientific algorithm for the conceptual-terminological systems is proposed through disclosure of the essence of human-geographical objects, relations, processes, structures. Interpretation of the essence of human-geographical objects, and, appropriate, relations, processes, structures, is determined by specific philosophical systems of cognition of reality. Accordingly, the objective reality is highlighted, including real and virtual, as subjectivized reality, including the conceptual and complementary reality.

The importance of the distinguishing of terminological features of human-geographical concepts such as geotouriality, systematic, integrity, concreteness, the ability to map, and using GIS models are established by this research.

The next main methodological principles of the terminological analysis are defined: logical and linguistic consistency (noncontradiction) of general and specific scientific terminology, verification of terms, falsification of terms, multi-vector, distinguishing of the objective meaning of the term despite of its ideological and subjective layers; harmonization of national terminology and borrowing, especially the international terms.

Socio-geographical terminology is an important scientific field of geography theory. The relevance of the study of its formation and development is due to the dynamism of theoretical and methodological thought of social geography. Systematization of socio-geographical terms should take place according to the algorithm: objects - relations - processes. Interpretation of the essence of socio-geographical objects - the main cores of socio-geographical termination - requires consideration of the peculiarities of individual philosophical systems of comprehension of reality. Normalization of socio-geographical vocabulary will be facilitated by the establishment of terms of the main scientific categories. In socio-geographical termination it is necessary to adhere to the following main methodological principles: logical and linguistic consistency (consistency) of general scientific and specifically scientific terminology; verification of terms; falsification of terms; validity of terms; multivectority; separation of the objective meaning of the term from its ideological and subjective layers; harmonization of specific Ukrainian terminology and borrowings.
