Perspective directions of geologistic research are singled out in the article based on logistic and geologistic domestic and international research literature. We found out that the concept of geologistics, unlike the concept of logistics, is still not sufficiently developed both in Ukraine and abroad. In the paper, geologistics is defined as a new interdisciplinary scientific and practical direction that examines human-geographical factors and geospatial organization of territorial logistic systems to optimize it. The authors considered conceptual and terminological apparatus of geologistics and formulated the object and subject of geologistics as a science, as well as its relation to human geography. We define territorial logistic system to be the object of geologistics, and the subject of geologistics is represented by human-geographical factors and geospatial organization of territorial logistic system to optimize it. The territorial logistic system as the central concept of geologistics is defined as interrelated set of specialized economic entities and infrastructure, united by certain territorial community, to achieve the efficiency of passenger, commodity, information and financial flows. The object and subject of transport geologistics and distributive geologistics are determined in the article as well. We created the graphic model of semantic network of the conceptual and terminological apparatus of geologistics, and outlined the scientific methodological, material and infrastructural support of the territorial logistic system, as well as the main groups of its functions.
