Information becomes useful only if it is represented in a logical and meaningful way, it is compatible at interaction and integration in  ideas, rules, principles, laws; supports an adequate description of objects, phenomena and processes in their continuous development; can be measured, highlighted, used and evaluated as a prove of activities' efficiency.

Any human activity starts with natural resources, it is performed and recycled in the environment. In the same time the objectives of real knowledge forms a perfect system, diverse in the geographical environment with conjunction of both social and economic subsystems. But the organisational and functional fundamental form is stored in the natural system as a support of integrity, an important active component in studying the relations with social-economic activities. Thus, during the organisation process of information creation and real knowledge, the principle of nature's laws domination over the social-economic ones is observed.

  The principle of systemic approach ensures specific responsabilities towards the research of interaction between components, it ensures the authenticity and synthesis of the results at different hierarchical levels of organization.  In order to methodologically  consolidate the real knowledge of nature as a source of information for the process of stable development it is necessary to include two important directions of scientific studies coordinated by paradigms and known programs:

1.       Traditional - that of ecosystem with a wide implementation in many domains of science, especially in biology, ecology.

2.       That of "geosystem" with certain issues and meaning deformation in real knowledge.

    The ecosystem of any volume and taxonomic rang include certain space and organisms and interact with the environment so that the energy flow creates a specific trophic structures, "specific diversity" and a circuit of substance within the system (A. Tensli, 1935). On the other hand the ecosystem is the biological asociation which internal substance exchange is bigger than it's external one.

The concept and notion of "geosystem" means a certain geographic space that represents a systemic entity if it is individualized with a precisely defined territory composed of components with interaction relations integrated in the evolutive development (B. Soceava, 1963).

Discussing the essence of "ecosystem" and "geosystem" notions we can notice a organic relationship between two hierarhical levels of nature's structure and functionality. Thus, appears the necessity of their integration in conceptual, methodological and methodical relations in a unified process of knowledge through the introduction of "geoecosystem" notion (VI. Iacovlev, 1995).

Thus, a compulsory principle of systemic integration in nature study is stabilized that recognizes separate study objectives of the components, but only with determination of integration and synthesis mechanisms of information at the level of structure and functions of the natural system as a whole. The suggested notion can become a paradigm of organic integration of research of all nature interaction mechanisms and processes with socio-economic activities in the process of stable development, and maybe a research support in a special domain of "Nature Systemology".
