Dear Sergey,

Personally I prefer the typology developed by Breu and Sasse, which, I
believe, has more explanatory power for cross-typological comparison:

Breu, Walter. 1985. Handlungsgrenzen als Grundlage der Verbklassifikation.
In W Lehfeldt (ed.), *Slavistische Linguistik 1984*, 9–34. München: Otto
Sagner.

Breu, Walter. 1994. Interactions Between Lexical, Temporal and Aspectual
Meanings. *Studies in Language* 18(1). 23–44.
https://doi.org/10.1075/sl.18.1.03bre.

Breu, Walter. 2021. Actionality and the degree of temporal dynamics: Focus
aspect, status aspect, and the role of valency. *STUF - Language Typology
and Universals*. De Gruyter (A) 74(3–4). 435–466.
https://doi.org/10.1515/stuf-2021-1041.

Sasse, Hans-Jürgen. 1991. Aspekttheorie. In Hans-Jürgen Sasse (ed.),
*Aspektsysteme* (Arbeitspapiere 14), 1–35. Köln: Institut für
Sprachwissenschaft, Universität zu Köln.

Sasse, Hans-Jürgen. 1991. Aspect and aktionsart: a reconciliation. In Carl
Vetters & Willy Vandeweghe (eds.), *Belgian Journal of Linguistics*, vol.
6, 31–45.

Boland also provides a good summary and typological discussion:
