Abstract: The purpose of the research is to identify the features of development of a pattern of green infrastructure of megapolises as a basis of sustainable development. The advancement algorithm of green infrastructure of megapolises is implemented for the first time and it is a scientific novelty. The structural features of green infrastructure, namely the division of surface elements into central and peripheral cores, and the division of linear elements into natural and natural–artificial corridors are highlighted by means of an example of Shymkent city, (Republic of Kazakhstan). Their maps were made taking into account the territorial and industrialized structure. Proposals were made to improve the functioning of the green infrastructure of Shymkent city, promoting sustainable development and creating a population-friendly environment. The analysis of green infrastructure and the impact of socio-economic and demographic infrastructure on the environment was carried out on the advancement of the green infrastructure of megapolises; the main methodological principles were determined. The statistical, cartographic, analytical, comparative and empirical methods were used in this research. The work was carried out using the following software: CorelDraw X4, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, 2Gis 3.16, Adobe Photoshop.
