27.10.2017GIS "Panorama" with the help of geoportals shows the changes in traffic, weather and other events in the time mode close to the real In KB "Panorama" the of for the x64 platform is developed. In the new version, the task of connecting geoportals has been refined. Support of a new geoportal is added for realisation of monitoring the movement of aircraft. Geoportal "Monitoring the Air Traffic" uses the public web service Flightradar24, which allows real-time monitoring of the situation of aircrafts, being in air. To view the current position of the aircraft in the program it is necessary to connect a geoportal "Monitoring the Air Traffic", to set the period of updating the image of the program window for 5 seconds, and to turn on the property "Update of WMS layers". In the process of monitoring, detailed information about the selected flight is available: airport of departure and arrival, travel time, model, speed, direction of movement, altitude and other parameters. Aircraft on the map are displayed with various conventional symbols from the classifier service.rsc depending on their model, dimensions, seating capacity. In total into the classifier service.rsc 16 new conventional symbols for a designation of aircraft were added. Among them, such lines of aircraft as SuperJet, TU, IL, Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier, Dassault aviation and others. The user can change the image of conventional symbols and expand the list of available aircraft models in the "Classifier Editor". GIS "Panorama" allows you to work with dynamic data coming from geoportals (various types of transport, road, rural and forest economy, hydrometeorology and ecological monitoring of the environment, subsoil use and others). The parameters of the local coordinate system of the Republic of Crimea for zone 1 and zone 2 are added into the file "LCS of RF Subjects.XML", which provides the storage of the list of parameters of local coordinate systems. The choice of coordinate system parameters from the file is carried out in the task of "Map Passport" and in dialogs the "Setting projection parameters of a raster" and "Setting projection parameters of a matrix". Local coordinate systems are set for making geodetic and topographical works in engineering surveying, construction and operation of buildings and constructions, land surveying, conducting cadastres and realisation of other special works. The task "Check of vector map quality" is improved. The vector map is checked in accordance with the selected control scheme containing a list of types and parameters of check. The report with results of control is sent to the HTML-file. The file format of the scheme of control parameters is changed from binary CXM onto textual XML. In a folder \Control.Dot\ the XML-files of schemes of control parameters with *.CXML extension have been updated.
A new mode "Reading the cadastral plan of territory and updating the map" is developed, which provides stream reading of several XML-files using two XML schemes of the cadastral plan of territory (CPT): V09_KPT and extract_cadastral_plan_territory_v01. The files corresponding to the scheme extract_cadastral_plan_territory_v01 are received within the framework of interdepartmental electronic interaction and are used in state and municipal authorities. The mode supports the processing of new types of cadastral objects: "water body", "land plot by land survey project", "zone, territory, natural object". During the processing of information read from the XML-CPT file, a search is performed on the map of the corresponding cadastral object and a decision is made to update the information on the map. To update the cadastral map, in addition to the cadastral number, the registry (accounting) number of the cadastral object is used as identification information. The digital classifier survey.v5.rsc was updated. In the updated classifier, new cadastral objects and semantics have been added to the layer "Cadastral plan of the territory", that are necessary to automate the process of updating the cadastral information. The task of "Opening data from the GIS Server" is refined. There is implemented the opening and addition into the current document of the list of the documents belonging to the selected node of the data tree. Actions are performed using the pop-up menu on the right button when the node of the map tree, rasters or matrices is activated.
In the mode "Mark for equivalent image" the possibility is added for a choice of graphic objects (not having code from the classifier) with selection of all objects having conterminous graphic parameters (conventional symbol) . The mode "Create objects from the XML file of real estate cadastre" is improved in the part of mapping objects with no coordinates - conditional objects. For conditional objects, the conditional coordinates are calculated according to the coordinates of the center of the cadastral quarter in which they are located. The algorithm of reading XML-files containing cadastral data in several coordinate systems is improved. The new version of the program is available for download in the section.

06.10.2017GIS Server simplifies the publication of spatial data bases within information systems In KB "Panorama" the version 7.4 is developed. In the new version the tools for publication of the information from the spatial databases operated by DBMS Oracle, PostgreSQL, MS SQL and others are refined. Possibility is added to set conventional symbols of database objects by the alphanumeric code stored in a separate field of the database table. The alphanumeric code is an analog of the classification integer code and is also used to encode conventional symbols of objects. In the Classifier Editor of the GIS "Panorama" the possibility is available to enter not only digital codes, but also arbitrary strings in national languages (alphanumeric code). Its main destination is the specifying a mutual conformity of conventional symbols of objects on digital maps and combinations of values of objects attributes, including a code, in databases and other sources of the information. When connecting to a database, the GIS Server has the ability to define a coordinate system in which the spatial description of objects in the database is stored. If the coordinate system and projection parameters specified by the application's settings for displaying the cartographic representation coincide with the parameters of storing of spatial data in the database, the GIS Server does not perform additional operations for transformation of coordinates. If the parameters of the projection and the coordinate system for storing of spatial data in the database differ from the established parameters for cartographical representation of this data on the GIS Server, the transformation of the spatial description of the objects in the database is performed by the DBMS tools directly into the coordinate system of the cartographic representation. Previously, such recalculations were carried out in two stages: at first, the coordinates were converted from the original system to WGS84, and then from WGS84 to the target coordinate system. The coordinate system and projection parameters for both information in the database and for its cartographic representation on the GIS Server are determined by the EPSG code. Such approach accelerates the publication of spatial databases of great volumes.

20.07.2017GIS Server for CentOS OS implements cloud storage of spatial data with access time close to real In KB "Panorama" the version 7.3 is developed for server OS CentOS. The new version increases the speed of access to large arrays of information in spatial databases. This is achieved by the flexible configuration of data caching and the possibility of cache distribution over disk arrays.
Clients ( application servers and desktop applications) access the spatial data hosted on the server at high speed through an efficient caching mechanism. The cache of spatial database is formed in the form of cartographic representation already in the established conventional symbols. A flexible load distribution onto the disk subsystem is provided by the ability to assign a separate directory with a cache for each connection of GIS Server SE with the geospatial database.
The new version of GIS Server allows not to reread from the database the previously received information and stored in the cache, even if this information has not been accessed for a while by any server client, or even if the GIS Server has been restarted.
GIS Server SE can carry out actualization in the cache only of that data which has changed since the previous access to the spatial database, using the transaction log. The log is implemented using a separate table in the database. The period of poll by GIS Server of the table of changes log is installed by the manager in program settings.
To effectively access a spatial database in which transaction logging is not performed, the GIS Server SE can use the "time of data relevance". The cartographic representation generated by the original data set (geospatial database table or SQL query) may not be recreated until the established time interval has expired. At the expiry of this period, the cartographical representation will be automatically re-configured if the GIS Server SE has active connections to this data set. If no one is connected to the dataset, the cartographic view will be re-formed at the first access of the user to this set. The relevance time for the data set of the spatial database is determined by the administrator of the Server GIS based on what spatial information is contained in this set, how much and how often it is updated for the server's clients.
GIS Server SE within a single geoinformation space provides multi-user access to spatial data for application servers (GIS WebService SE) and desktop clients (, ). The program gives users the opportunity to make changes to geospatial data bases through the graphical interface of GIS "Panorama", by tools of editing digital terrain maps. In this case, the GIS Server monitors the changes in these databases, performed by any external applications. There is supported a multilevel connection of servers among themselves for the distributed storage and processing of spatial data with automatic replication, backup and data protection.

Detailed models can contain three-dimensional objects corresponding to objects of a two-dimensional map.
The new version extends the user's ability to customize the 3D data model in accordance with its tasks: the view of the 3D object can be linked to its semantic characteristics, the boundaries displaying 3D objects are customized by scales. To get information about the object, you can directly having selected the objects from the 3D view. The composition of displayed three-dimensional objects changes automatically depending on the scale of the map display, at movement along equator the animation of moving and continuous display of 3D maps is provided.
When solving various navigational tasks the user has an opportunity to use spherical model of globe in the Web-browser: to view cities, countries, continents, analyze their mutual location, and also make a quick transition to any point on the Earth. Formation of spherical model of a terrestrial surface occurs automatically at transition to small scales of display.
For better perception of spatial data by the user, animation of the image is added when the scale of map display is changed. The basic actions of the user at editing and search of objects of spatial data are simplified. Now when performing the operations of modification and deletion, the output of a list of objects which are in a current point is added. The updated "Map Objects" component in a tabular form provides information about objects during search and selection operations with the possibility of displaying extended information from additional sources.
The list of available spatial data is expanded by adding the possibility of selecting a service for performing address search and searching by cadastre number on the Rosreestr portal.
In the new version the possibilities of measurements on a map are expanded - the mode of measuring angles on a map is added, modes of measurement of distance and the area are updated.

The task "Import of navigational data from GPX files" is improved. The program allows to load simultaneously several files in format GPX onto one map. This will save operator time on converting data.
Support of local database SQLite for display of raster data in the form of tiles is implemented. There is added a restriction of the displayed geoportal area, set by the user in the settings file wmslist_en.xml. Support of local SQLite database provides also display of the matrix data about terrain in the hmp format and the execution of all kinds of computational tasks related with heights (construction of profiles, visibility zones, estimation of elevation, calculation of ground volumes, 3D modeling and other tasks). There is added a support for zip archives, encrypted by a user password, at performing the operations of opening the data sets (vector maps, images, matrices) and updating the open data. If the zip archive is encrypted, the user will be prompted to enter a password to access the data.
The task of "Map Editor" has been improved. New objects are located on the map at once, taking into account the order of the layers displaying specified in the classifier, without additional sorting of the map. To manage the order of recording objects on the map when sorting the map, a service file with the SIN extension is formed. If the SIN file was not created, then the objects are written to the map in the order of their type (polygon, linear, etc.). The mode "Creation of group of objects by coordinates from a text file" is modified. There is added the possibility to build orthodrome by the coordinates of the file MET - an arc on the Earth's surface, passing through the shortest distance between the given points. To execute the task in a text file with the .MET extension, you need the presence of the #ORTHODROME service field and two lines with the coordinates of the starting and ending points of the created object - the arc. At large distances (thousands of kilometers), the points of the arc are formed with a step of no more than 0.4 degrees, for small distances - no more than 10 kilometers, which ensures the determination of lengths and angles with triangulation accuracy of 1 class.
New property "Save time and date of object update" is added in the dialog of creating a new map. If the map is created with the specified property, then into each object, when creating and editing, service semantics are automatically recorded with the date and time of the performed operation and with the name of the operator that performed the operation. The specified property can not be disabled. Support of the pseudo-conical equal-projection of Bonn (EPSG:9827) is added. The new projection can be selected for maps of the Geographical type.
In the "Classifier Editor" in the "Layers" bookmark, there is added the ability to set the order of displaying objects within a given layer (the button "Objects order"). It allows to unite layers of the same-type in the classifier which have been entered earlier for management of order of objects display. Flexible setting of the classifier simplifies the preparation of libraries of conventional symbols according to the requirements adopted in the national mapping systems of different countries. There is added the accounting for multipolygons when searching for objects by a given area, taking into account the occurrence, intersection, location at a given distance.
XML format is used for storage of conditions of search and display of map objects in files with "vclx" extension in the "\Log" folders. This simplifies the work with program settings from external applications. The dialogue "Select object" is refined. On the "Metric" bookmark a map window has been added with the ability to display the section with the current point of the object's metric. This allows you to view the contours of extended objects and to correct the coordinates of points without leaving the dialog.
Due to multi-threaded processing on a multi-core processor, the execution time of operations on lists of objects is reduced by 6-8 times - a search for intersections, occurrences, location at a given distance, and so on. Speed of constructing the list of the found objects is increased in 2-3 times. The sorting of multi-sheet maps (MAP) is accelerated by 3-4 times. When sorting map objects, the order of displaying objects in the layer is taken into account.
In the program the dialog "Image color adjustment" was refined, which is called via the menu item "Options\Colors" in tasks of "Data lists" or "Map legend". There is implemented the possibility of creating and editing a set of the user palettes to control the displaying the matrixes of terrain elevation that were added into the document.

3D model provides an opportunity to work and to view information layers from the geospatial data base and remote sensing data for analysis and decision making at designing. 3D surface is displayed in accordance with the terrain. Detailed models can contain three-dimensional objects corresponding to objects of a two-dimensional map. In new version of GIS WebServer SE the ability is added to automatically change the composition of the displayed three-dimensional objects depending on the scale of the map display. Animation of moving and continuous display of 3D maps are implemented at movement along equator.
In the new version, the speed and reliability of the service in the mode of round-the-clock operation is increased. By means of the built-in self-diagnostics the service allows to identify and eliminate failures that occur at processing the incorrect data or lack of server resources. These possibilities increase the reliability and fault tolerance of the application, and also speed up the search for errors and decision-making by the service administrator to change the server hardware resources. In order that the administrator could quickly find the necessary information about service's work, into the module of remote administration the tools are added for viewing the log with possibility of events filtration.
There is accelerated the process of updating images of vector maps which are issued by WMS protocol, at intensive editing of maps objects on the . For example, at displaying tracks of movement of vehicles the updating of vector data is carried out in parallel with drawing a current state. It reduces time of synchronisation of changing the object state and the output of the updated picture.
In the new version of the program a support of multipolygons is added. This type of object allows you to combine several individual polygon objects into one. Use of multipolygons will allow to avoid duplication of semantic characteristics, reducing the overall amount of information, to unite objects of the same type, reducing quantity of spatially-logic links and simplifying process of visual perception of objects (for example, the Kuril Islands, borders of the states and others).
The parameters of queries by the WFS standard are extended. The ability to display graphic objects and information about the relative and absolute height of the object is added. The possibility of forming a map legend with transparency is added.
GIS WebService SE implements support for a single geoinformation space, providing transmission and display of spatial data located on the GIS Server, according to international standards of OGC WFS, WFS-T, WMS, WMTS, WCS.

05.07.2017In "Panorama-editor" the technology of automated generalization of topographic maps for obtaining high-quality multiscale maps is improved In KB "Panorama" a version 12.5 was developed. In the new version, the "Automated generalization of topographic maps" task has been refined. A new mode "Setting the range of roads visibility" was added. This mode is designed to simplify an overloaded road network at transition to smaller scales of maps. At compression of the map image the density of objects per unit of the area of a map increases. Linear objects of the road network begin to paint each other and adjacent polygonal map objects (blocks and industrial objects). The new mode allows you to save all objects of the road network, including streets and driveways in the derived map. The task is designed for processing topographic terrain maps in the scale from 1:25 000 up to 1: 1 000 000. This method allows to realise the multiscale maps providing the qualitative image in several scales, and also to raise degree of automation of processes of drawing up and the issuing maps of smaller scales. The converter of digital vector maps from SHP format has been improved. It supports the import of a folders tree with SHP files, with the automatic formation of sheets and map layers in national division and coordinate systems, with the assignment of conventional symbols by alphanumeric code in any national language encoded in UTF.
In the "Classifier Editor" in the "Layers" bookmark, there is added the ability to set the order of displaying objects within a given layer (the button "Objects order"). It allows to unite layers of the same-type in the classifier which have been entered earlier for management of order of objects display. Flexible setting of the classifier simplifies the preparation of libraries of conventional symbols according to the requirements adopted in the national mapping systems of different countries.
The sorting of multi-sheet maps (MAP) is accelerated by 3-4 times due to multi-threaded processing on multi-core processors. When sorting map objects, the order of displaying objects in the layer is taken into account.
The task "Import of navigational data from GPX files" is improved. The program allows to load simultaneously several files in format GPX onto one map. This will save operator time on converting data.
In the complex of geodesy calculations there is implemented the storage and editing of data on documents that establish the category of land, the type of permitted use and the address of land use not only for the formed, but also for the specified, changeable and original sites. Screen elements are added for entering and editing information about a natural object. The procedure for analyzing the initial data specified by the user for the formation of the scheme for the location of the land plot on the cadastral plan of the territory was automated.
In the program the dialog "Image color adjustment" was refined, which is called via the menu item "Options\Colors" in tasks of "Data lists" or "Map legend". There is implemented the possibility of creating and editing a set of the user palettes to control the displaying the matrixes of terrain elevation that were added into the document.
In the task of "Check of vector map quality" the output of report documents into the HTML-file is added. Outputting reports into HTML file allows you to generate reporting documents without using office programs. There is added the ability to run several instances of GIS "Panorama-Editor" for execution of control of various vector maps with the issuance of reports into HTML format (a report into MS Word is executed only from one program).
The new version of the program is available for download in the section.
04.07.2017The speed of multi-user access to geo-spatial databases has been increased in the GIS Server In KB "Panorama" the version 7.3 is developed. The new version increases the speed of access to large arrays of information in spatial databases. This is achieved by the flexible configuration of data caching and the possibility of cache distribution over disk arrays.
The program provides caching of information from a spatial database in the form of a cartographic representation already in established conventional symbols. This allows you to maximize the speed of multi-user access to this data. In the new version, for each GIS Server connection with the geo-spatial database, a separate directory can be assigned in the disk space for cache placing. This approach allows the server administrator to flexibly distribute the load to the disk subsystem.
The GIS Server allows not to reread from the database the previously received information and stored in the cache, even if this information has not been accessed for a while by any server client, or even if the GIS Server has been restarted. If data logging is available in the database, the GIS Server updates the data in the cache only in the part of the data that has changed since the previous access to the spatial data base. Logging of operations is carried out using an additional table in the database - "Log of data changes". The period of poll by GIS Server of the table of changes log is installed by the manager in program settings.
If the logging of operations is not performed in the spatial database, then the GIS Server must update the entire cache. To minimize the time and resource costs required for this operation, the new version introduces the notion of "time of data relevance". Now the cartographic representation generated by the original data set (geospatial database table or SQL query) is not recreated until the established interval of relevance of the received data has expired, even if during this period the operating system or the GIS Server was restarted. After the time of data relevance expires, the cartographical representation will be automatically re-configured if there are active connections to this data set on the GIS Server. If no one is connected to the dataset and the data timeliness has expired, the cartographic view will be re-formed at the first access of the user to this set. The relevance time for the data set of the spatial database is determined by the administrator of the Server GIS based on what spatial information is contained in this set, how much and how often it is updated for the server's clients.
GIS Server provides remote access to vector maps, remote sensing data, matrices, documents and spatial databases. There is supported a multilevel connection of servers among themselves for the distributed storage and processing of spatial data with automatic replication, backup and data protection. The program gives users the opportunity to make changes to geo-spatial data bases through the graphical interface of by means of editing digital terrain maps. In this case, the GIS Server monitors the changes in these databases, performed by any external applications.
The new version of the program is available for download on the page.
30.06.2017GIS WebServer SE uses an interactive globe model to display geospatial data In KB "Panorama" the version 3.3 is developed. In the new version the component of three-dimensional model of a map was updated. The 3D model provides an opportunity to work and to view information layers from the geospatial data base and remote sensing data for analysis and decision making at designing. 3D surface is displayed in accordance with the terrain. Detailed models can contain three-dimensional objects corresponding to objects of a two-dimensional map. The new version adds the ability to automatically change the composition of the displayed three-dimensional objects depending on the scale of the map display. Animation of moving and continuous display of 3D maps are added at movement along equator.
For small scales of display the spherical model of a terrestrial surface is formed. When solving various navigational tasks, the spherical model allows you to explore the globe in a Web browser, to view cities, countries, continents, analyze their mutual location, and also make a quick transition to any point on the globe.
Search system is updated. The ability to select a search resource for address search and search by coordinates is added. This allows you to obtain geodata from various sources in the user interface.

29.06.2017ImageryCreator provides formation of tiles files Big Data in MBTiles format In KB "Panorama" the version 9.1 is developed. The new version of the program allows you to create tiles in the SQLite database format - MBTiles. The advantage of this method of storage of tiles compared with storage of tiles in the form of separate files in system consists in saving of a space on a hard disk. All data is stored in a single database file. Tiles in MBTiles format on average take up to 30% less space on the hard disk. The speed of access to the tile in the SQLite database in the Windows system is comparable to the speed of access to the file directly. Use of the MBTiles format will simplify and speed up the process of transferring tiles between servers and hard disks. In order to optimize the use of free space on the hard disk, the program analyzes the size of the created tiles and does not store tiles that do not contain information (empty data). The new version supports the cutting of tiles with numbering for the TMS standard.
The program allows you to create tiles in the formats JPEG, PNG, PNG8 and MBTiles according to the international standard OGC WMTS 07-057r7 version 1.0.0 and the TMS standard.

01.06.2017GIS Server SE provides direct multiuser access to the geospatial databases in the form of maps in the specified conventional symbols In KB "Panorama" the of version 7.1.7 is developed for CentOS OS. In the new version, a direct connection to geospatial data bases is implemented for viewing and editing the tables in the form of maps in given conventional symbols. Databases managed by DBMS PostgreSQL with PostGIS extension are supported.
In the new version of the program the user has an opportunity to make changes to databases through the graphic interface of the client by tools of editing digital terrain maps. If you change the coordinates of the objects, the fields of the Geometry type in the database table will change, and when the semantics change, the fields with attributive data of objects will change.
GIS Server SE monitors changes of the connected geospatial databases and automatically updates their image in the specified conventional symbols. Changes can be made by any external applications by execution of SQL queries. To track changes into the database an auxiliary table is added - a change log and a trigger for filling it. For forced updating of the image of the connected geospatial databases the combination of keys CTRL-F5 is applied.
Parameters of displaying a database in the form of a map (table, data presentation or SQL-query)) are saved on the server in a file with DBM extension having XML structure. Administration of connection to databases is built-in into the general interface of administration the GIS Server SE. Examples of DBM files for connecting database tables on the Internet are included into the program installation.
The means of connection to the database the GIS Server SE include the capabilities of the , however, the speed of image formation and updating has become much higher. In need of scaling the productivity at the expense of processing of several databases on different servers, it is expedient to use separate copies of service the Spatial DB Service. There is improved the reading of multipoligons from databases with the formation of multipoligons on the map (previously groups of individual objects were formed).
The ability is added to specify a shared folder of documents for a virtual folder with vector maps.

In the new version of the program, tools for creating and updating maps, means for working with databases, drawing up maps with complex symbols, computational tasks and other modules have been improved. At the expense of connection to the program there is added the possibility of viewing and editing the databases operated by DBMS PostgreSQL or Oracle, by tools of editing digital terrain maps. If you change the coordinates of the objects, the fields of the Geometry type in the database table will change, and when the semantics change, the fields with attributive data of objects will change. GIS Server supports direct connection to geospatial data bases for viewing tables in the form of vector maps in specified conventional symbols. There is expanded a support of the local SQLite database for displaying terrain matrix data in hmp format and performing all kinds of computational tasks related to heights (construction of profiles, visibility zones, estimation of elevation, calculation of ground volumes, 3D modeling and other tasks).
ZIP is added to the list of formats to be opened. If you select zip, it is automatically unpacked into the folder \Temp\Panorama.Cache\. Data opens in order of priority: the project of maps, vector maps, rasters, matrixes. This allows you to archive projects of the geodata, to copy and quickly to view. Data in archive opens on reading. After closing of the unpacked data they automatically are deleted. There is added a support for zip archives, encrypted by a user password, at performing the operations of opening the data sets (vector maps, images, matrices) and updating the open data. If the zip archive is encrypted, the user will be prompted to enter a password to access the data.
In the program the task "Export of vector data to GML/JSON format" is improved. Possibility is added for saving the vector data into GeoJson format with taking into account the styles of displaying. In this case, into the file not only the geometry of objects is saved, but also their metadata and external view. The output file can be published in web by means of services the Leaflet, OpenLayers, 2gis, OpenStreetMap and others supporting GeoJson with styles.

New task the "Report Editor is added that allows to create and print the documents, including maps, graphics, multi-line text with different attributes, embedded Office documents and tables, out-of-frame designing, coordinate grids and other elements. Printing the entire report or just the current page is performed by one mouse click. The generated report can be saved to disk for later creation on its basis of similar reports. Into the titles text there is included a support for keywords #date, #.date and #time, which at displaying text are automatically replaced with the current date (DD/MM/YYYY or DD.MM.YYYY) and time (HH: MM: CC). Titles with the specified key words can be used, in particular, when printing maps to fix the date and time of image formation. For example, the title with the text "Current date: #date #time" can be displayed as text "Current date: 25/08/2016 19:00:15", and the title with the text "Current date: #.date #time - as the text "Current date: 25.08.2016 19:00:15". In the task "Map Computer" there is modified the mode "Information about the object". The mode allows you to collect the data about the terrain object consisting of a great number of separate parts, by the object identifier (the road number, the river name and so forth). Into the dialog the options are added which allow you to collect the object from parts of different layers (for example, highway in the layer of road net and the main streets in the layer of settlements) that allows to receive more complete information about the object in general and the distribution of properties (semantics) by individual parts.
There is added a possibility of collecting the data about object not only in a multisheet map (MAP), but also in the project (MPT) of maps set (SIT, SITX), having the identical classifier. In the dialog box "Select object" there is changed the algorithm for calculating the area of the objects having extent on a longitude more than 5 degrees. Error of calculations makes about 1/10 000 from the object area. The extended accuracy of calculation of the area is provided at a selecting the "Clarify the area and length" in the menu "Options" and a choice in Select Object dialog in the pop-up menu for item "Accuracy of coordinates display" of the value "Extended". Membership of units of measure is expanded at displaying the angles between the sides of the object and azimuths. Into dialog "Measurement of distances (building orthodrome)" and into the mode "Line length" there are added the units of measure of corners: protractor divisions, angular miles and rumb. In the mode "Line length" to set the desired unit of angles measure it is necessary in the menu by the right mouse button to choose the appropriate item.
Into the main panel of the program there is added a call of the new universal mode the Mark objects by arbitrary area. Selecting objects is performed by the area bounded by a closed loop, which is being built in several ways: rectangle, polygon, and an arbitrary area (lasso). The choice of the method of constructing a closed loop is performed automatically and depends on the user's actions. For example, to select objects by a polygon the specifying the points of a polygon is performed by pressing the left mouse button. When you select objects by the frame to indicate the rectangular frame itself, you must click the left mouse button and while holding it, start moving the mouse diagonally. To select objects by arbitrary area (lasso), press the left mouse button and while holding it, start moving around the selected area. To end the mode, release the mouse button. In the task the "Navigator 3D" there is implemented a constructing the 3D-model of relief and surface objects by a cloud of points.

The output file can be published in web by means of leaflet, openlayers, 2gis, openstreetmap and other applications supporting GeoJson with styles.
In the dialog box "Select object" there is changed the algorithm for calculating the area of the objects having extent on a longitude more than 5 degrees. Extended objects are cut by strips in UTM projection, no more than 5 degrees on a longitude. The total area of objects is calculated by conventional zones and summed. The extended accuracy of calculation of the area is provided at a selecting the "Extended" value in the pop-up menu for item "Accuracy of coordinates display".
Converter from SHP format is improved. There is added support for file names, field names and attribute values in the national encoding. There is added an automatic identification of a set name and an object of the classifier (by key or name).
There is added the ability to create a new classifier with the subsequent primary automatic classification of objects and characteristics (automatic addition into the classifier of absent semantics and types of objects). Displaying rasters with cutting the images by a frame is improved. Accuracy of the image cut for different scale display is improved. It allows at scaling to display more precisely a mosaic of rasters without discrepancies and imposing the images of the adjacent rasters. New implementation of forming the images of the reduced raster copies allows to improve details of the compressed image.
Possibility is added for opening of rasters from which are generated from GeoTIFF format without copying the image into RSW file (multispectral multichannel rasters displayed through the GDAL library).
There is increased the speed of building the reduced copies of raster images after import of graphic files or procedures of data compression. Time of building the pyramid of reduced images inside RSW file is reduced by 10-15 times at the expense of multi-threading processing on multi-core processors.

There is added a support for placing on the GIS Server of multispectral multichannel rasters in GeoTIFF format, loaded into the GIS "Panorama" with use of GDAL library without image copying into RSW format (consists of three files with extensions TIF, TOF, RSW). Support for access to GeoTIFF on the server is implemented in the GIS "Panorama" of version 12.3.3 or higher by using GDAL virtual file system.
Possibility is added to specify a shared folder of documents for a virtual folder with vector maps. This eliminates the administration for the individual maps that can be created in virtual folders in the implementation of different requests. Into a folder of documents the files of documents automatically will be saved onto which the reference in objects semantics of vector maps will be added.
GIS Server provides remote round-the-clock access to the spatial data for users of GIS "Panorama", and other programs developed in the environment of or GIS Constructor for Linux. Placement of spatial data on the server increases the level of data protection against illegal copying and change, ensures reliable operation in the collective editing of data.

13.01.2017GIS WebService SE and GIS Server display dynamically changeable data in real time In KB "Panorama" the version 11.6 is developed. In the new version there is accelerated a process of updating images of the vector maps which are issued by WMS protocol, at intensive editing the objects of maps on the . For example, at displaying tracks of vehicles' motion the updating of the vector data is carried out in parallel with drawing a current state. It reduces time of synchronisation of change of a vehicle position and the issuance of a picture with new position. In addition, it will enable end-users who use , always to obtain the data and the pictures that are close to real time.
Parametres of requests by WFS standard are expanded. There is added the possibility of display of graphic objects and the information on relative and absolute height of object. Records format of errors' log of service's work is changed. Codes of errors are described in the documentation. For convenience of the log's analysis into the module of remote administration of service the tools are added for viewing the log with possibility of events filtration.
GIS WebServiΡe SE supports all international standards (OGC WFS, WFS-T, WMS, WMTS, WCS) with which help the transmission and display of spatial data is carried out. The application has the possibility of issuing tiles for any user or local coordinate system. The application is implemented on Windows and Linux platforms, is compatible with the Apache web-server, IIS, nginx.

07.01.2017GIS WebServer SE displays terrain objects in the three-dimensional view In KB "Panorama" the version 2.8 is developed. In the new version of the program in the mode of "3D Map View" the display of objects in a three-dimensional form is implemented. The mode allows to build and display in real time in the browser not only three-dimensional model of the Earth's surface, but also terrain objects in a volumetric form. Three-dimensional display of objects can be set for any map layer. Models of objects can be obtained from library of three-dimensional symbols or have a graphic view by default. Parameters of the view by default, for example, color, height are customised in the Administration module. There are provided a movement throughout the territory of the Earth, zoom, rotate and tilt model, a choosing sources of the data. Moving and scaling of a two-dimensional and three-dimensional view of the map are synchronised.
Access to the data (to the images, vector maps and information on the terrain) Web-services provide according to conventional OGC protocols and ISO standards. Service of the (OGC WMS/WMTS) provides the spatial information in the form of graphic images. As digital model of a relief the various kinds of elevation data are used: matrixes (in formats SRTM, GeoTIFF, IMG, MTW), TIN-models, a cloud of points and others. At request there is carried out the selection of the most accurate data on a predetermined portion of the terrain with the specified resolution. To send the data of digital model of the relief to the Web the WCS protocol is used. Data of the relief are presented in the form of tiles and are cached on the client.
GIS WebServer SE is used in the construction of private enterprise systems to ensure protection of data having security classification or trade secrets. GIS WebServer SE is certified to Level 2 of undeclared capabilities absence. The new version of the program extends the application's possibilities in solving problems of the analysis, management and forward planning of territories development. GIS WebServer SE is implemented with use of toolkit the GIS WebToolKit SE which can be applied in the development tools using the JavaScript.
