A methodology has been developed for processing and analyzing satellite ozone data and constructing digital maps of the TO field in the Southern Hemisphere over the geodynamic regions of Antarctica. An analysis of the original ozone data from August to October for the period 2000–2023 was carried out, and missing TOC values were restored. Based on the results of the analysis, tables were generated containing information on TO minima with geographic coordinates, ozone mass deficit and the area of the Antarctic Ozone Hole (AHO) for specified dates. The locations of TOC minima for 1978–2023 are presented on digital maps of Antarctica. A detailed analysis of anomalous ozone variations over Antarctica in 2002, 2018 and 2019 was performed. The AHO area during this period varied from 3.64 million km2 (October 31, 2019) to 9.41 million km2 (October 15, 2019).
