25.12.2012In "Complex of automated quality control and correction of maps" version 5.4 the analysis of topology of the metrics of objects is expanded In KB "Panorama" the "Complex of automated quality control and correction of maps" version 5.4 is developed. In the new version of the complex the following types of control of topological correctness are refined: control of self-crossings and control of presence of breaks in linear objects. In control of self-crossings there is reduced the excess number of the messages associated with detection of coincident and adjoining subobjects, and also new diagnostic messages about error of belonging the subobjects of polygonal objects are added. In control of presence of breaks there is added a taking into account of a direction of digitizing specified in the map classifier. Previously, this type of control was performed equally for all linear objects that in the mode "Edit" led to an incorrect merge of some kinds of objects (linear rivers). The new version considers following directions of a digitizing: "Arbitrary", "Predefined" and "Lower right". At detection of pair of adjoining objects with arbitrary direction of digitizing the adjoining objects going in any direction are merged. Steams of adjoining objects with direction "Predefined" or "Lower right" are merged only in that case when they go in one direction (linear rivers, horizontals). In addition to changes of the program of control itself into the complex there are added tables of transition from classifiers 25t09g.rsc and 200t09g.rsc to classifiers 25t05g.rsc and 200t05g.rsc accordingly, schemes of control of maps of scales 1:25 000 and 1:200 000 are refined.

14.12.2012In the GIS "Panorama FARMING" conducting history of formation of fields and drawing up of reports is automated In KB "Panorama" the GIS "Panorama FARMING" version 3.2 is developed. In the new version the module of dynamic formation of reports on a state of fields is designed and implemented and the list of processed characteristics of fields is expanded. The subsystem of monitoring the farmland is added by the mechanism of conducting history of forming the fields in the form of the register. Register allows to get access to the data about configuration of fields, to agro-physical and agrochemical indicators, a crop rotation and crop yields, monitoring of crops and administrative information for a certain period of time. This information can be compared with passports of fields of current year of a crop, and the data about a configuration for the different periods of time (year) can be jointly displayed on a map. Such approach allows to study dynamics of change from year to year of structure of areas under crops. New possibilities of a program complex are directed on the decision of problems on automation of management by agriculture system in the agricultural enterprise: conducting passports of work areas with a binding to a map, creating and editing the borders of agricultural lands, planning of agrotechnical actions, thematic mapping and exchange of information with external information systems. Cartographical ensuring of the GIS "Panorama FARMING" is based on access to the GIS Server, data processing from public geoportals and data from the Databank of digital maps and data of remote sensing the Earth. Placing the data on the server provides protection of the data against illegal copying and change. Transferred data is encrypted by a 256-bit key established onto a concrete communication session. It prevents interception of data and their substitution at the moment of transfer by open communication channels. Possibility to work offline with the cartographical data on the client is added at loss of connection with the GIS Server. At connection restoration the automatic replication of data on the client (synchronisation of data with the server) is carried out. The program is supplied by the actual documentation and test examples. The new version is available at the in the Download section.

All data that are stored on the client computer in a cache for work acceleration always are encrypted by 256-bit key formed from the server key and the client's key. The new algorithm of digest-authorisation of the data is applied to prevent interception of the user's password at connection to the GIS Server. There is added the ability to work off-line with data from the cache at loss of connection with GIS Server. At absence (short-term loss) of connection with the GIS Server the data access automatically goes into the mode "Read only, Prevent printing Prevent copying". When communication is restored, access is automatically changed to the one that is set for the user on the GIS Server, and automatic replication of data in the cache regarding the changed data is carried out. GIS Server Administrator can prohibit work offline with data. If the GIS Server Administrator cancels access to data for a given group of users, then maps on respective clients will be automatically closed with deleting the data from the cache. If GIS Server Administrator has prohibited offline work with the data, then client programs of versions lower than 11.10.3 that do not support encryption, can open the data on the GIS Server. GIS "Panorama 11", Panorama-editor, GIS Navigator 2011, GIS-viewer and other programs developed in the environment of GIS ToolKit of version 11, GIS constructor for Qt Designer 11 versions and later can be clients. Connection with the server is established via protocol TCP/IP. The server provides remote access to vector maps, rasters and matrixes. Placing the data on the server provides protection of data against illegal copying and change. The new version of the program is available for download on the Download page.

This allows you to work remotely with the maps in the local coordinate systems, the parameters of which are closed. The new version of the program and the documentation are available on the website in the Download section.
28.11.2012In the GIS "Panorama 11" the means of conducting the metadata by standards of ISO 19115:2003 and ISO/TS 19139 are built-in In KB "Panorama" the GIS "Panorama11"version 11.10.3 is developed. In the new version there are added means of entering metadata under standards of ISO 19115:2003, Geographic information - Metadata and ISO/TS 19139, Geographic information - Metadata - XML schema implementation. Input and viewing of the metadata is carried out in the task View Passport. Metadata are stored in format XML in the form of a separate file for each sheet of a map. Input of the additional information about a map (data about the manufacturer, the data about technology of creation) is provided and its use at conducting the automated banks of the spatial data. For facilitation of entering the metadata on the data supplier into the GIS installation there is included database of state and private enterprises of the Russian Federation (more than 40), that create the digital maps and plans. The base is in XML format and can be supplemented. Protection of data opened from the GIS Server is improved. All data that are stored on the client computer in a cache for work acceleration always are encrypted by 256-bit key formed from the server key and the client's key. The new algorithm of digest-authorisation of the data is applied to prevent interception of the user's password at connection to the GIS Server. Possibility is added for encrypting the data being transmitted, that are opened remotely. It prevents interception of data and their substitution during transmission over open communication channels. Data are encrypted by 256-bit key established onto concrete communication session. There is added the ability to work off-line with data from the cache at loss of connection with GIS Server. At absence (short-term loss) of connection with the GIS Server the data access automatically goes into the mode "Read only, Prevent printing Prevent copying". When communication is restored, access is automatically changed to the one that is set for the user on the GIS Server, and automatic replication of data in the cache regarding the changed data is carried out. GIS Server Administrator (starting from version 4.x) can prohibit work offline with data. If the GIS Server Administrator cancels access to data for a given group of users, then maps on respective clients will be automatically closed with deleting the data from the cache. If GIS Server Administrator has prohibited offline work with the data, then client programs of versions lower than 11.10.3 that do not support encryption, can open the data on the GIS Server. There is added option to hide parameters of coordinate system of the map opened on the GIS Server. This allows to work remotely with the maps in the local coordinate systems, parameters of which are closed. In all dialogs and tasks the parameters of local coordinate systems will be displayed as parameters of system EPSG:3857 (Mercator on a sphere, adopted in Google). For this purpose the Administrator of GIS Server should set for a map the property: Hide parameters of coordinate system. All recalculations of coordinates and combination with the data having other coordinate systems will be done without distortions. It is recommended to set the property Hide parameters of coordinate system in conjunction with the property Forbid copying a map from the GIS Server. If passport parameters are hidden, and copying the data is not forbidden, at saving the data into formats SXF and TXF the coordinates will be stored in degrees in system EPSG:3857. Automatic check of time of updating the rasters and matrixes opened on the GIS Server, and their synchronous updating on the client is added. The mode of the map editor "Join objects", belonging to group of modes "Topology", is improved. Metrics of the second selected object changes by points of the first one (standard) at joining of objects. The metrics of standard object is edited only in the absence of a reply vertex of standard object for a vertex of the second object. The given mode allows to correct contours of mismatched objects by a simple choice of standard and edited object. At joining of contours vertexes the Join tolerance is used, which customization is carried out in dialog "Map Editor Options". Detection of mismatched objects is carried out at processing of maps in programs "Quality control of digital topographic maps" and "Recoding and quality control of digital topographic maps with editing". Results of control and editing the digital topographic maps are logged. Dialog of the Map Editor "View error" is improved, which allows you to view and analyze results of the made stage of control. Task provides arbitrary moving in the list of the found and corrected errors with marking the current object on a map. The task "Creation of zones of correspondence by calculations", that performs arithmetic and logic operations with the matrix data of various types (a matrix of heights, a matrix of geological layers, a matrix of qualities) is improved. The set of the operations, used in arithmetic and logic expressions, that are applied to the elements of matrixes is expanded. There are added trigonometric function of calculating the cotangent, and also functions of calculation of natural and decimal logarithms. The new version of the program and the documentation are available on the website in the Download section.

26.11.2012In the GIS Server the support of standard OGC WMS on the basis of GIS WebService 4.2 is added In KB "Panorama" the GIS WebService of version 4.2 is developed. The new version of service is integrated with the GIS Server. For the information systems with small load the service can be installed as addition to the GIS Server on the same computer that reduces a total cost of programs and simplifies administration. In systems with the big load or at great volumes of data the additional copies of GIS WebService are installed on separate servers, providing scalability of the application. To ensure the protection of the data into GIS WebService the means of encrypting the data received from the GIS Server are embedded. Data are encrypted by 256-bit key established onto concrete communication session. It prevents interception of data and their substitution during transmission over open communication channels. Integration with the GIS Server allows to display in a mode of real time the spatial data according to standard OGC WMS, taking into account any changes in the base of spatial data managed by GIS Server. Integration of server applications is aimed onto development of network-centric model of management by the spatial data. The new version of the program and the documentation are available on the website in the Download section.
22.11.2012In GIS Server new level of protection of the spatial data is introduced In KB "Panorama" the GIS Server version 4.1 is developed. The new version of embedded encryption capabilities of spatial data as it is sent to the client and back. In the new version the means of encrypting the spatial data are embedded at their sending to the client and back. It prevents interception of data and their substitution during transmission over open communication channels. Data are encrypted by 256-bit key established onto concrete communication session. The key of communication session is encrypted by the server's key and the client's key. Encryption is performed at reading and writing data. The delay of data transmission at the expense of encrypting is about 3-10 % of the total time of data transmission via Internet channels. At work in a closed network the data encryption can be disabled by the administrator of GIS Server. There is added option to hide parameters of coordinate system of the map opened on the GIS Server. This allows to work remotely with the maps in the local coordinate systems, parameters of which are closed. In all dialogs and tasks the parametres of local coordinate systems will be displayed as parametres of system EPSG:3857 (Mercator on a sphere, adopted in Google). For this purpose the Administrator of GIS Server should set for a map the property: Hide parametres of coordinate system. All recalculations of coordinates and combination with the data having other coordinate systems will be done without distortions. Property to Hide parametres of coordinate system is recommended to be established in conjunction with the property to Forbid copying a map from the GIS Server. If passport parametres are hidden, and copying the data is not forbidden, at saving the data into formats SXF and TXF the coordinates will be stored in degrees in system EPSG:3857. The new version of the program is available for download on the Download page.
21.11.2012In KB "Panorama" digital classifiers of topographic maps are refined KB "Panorama" refined classifiers of topographic maps of all scale range. Uniform classifiers are intended for an exchange of digital topographic maps between various departments and information systems. As a basis of classifiers it was taken the information-cartographical ensuring "ICE 2008", approved by Chief of the General Staff of Military Topographic Office of the Russian Federation in 2008 and entered into force on 10/24/2008. Refined classifiers are agreed with "ICE 2008", except for rules of the digital description of some objects which are not expressed in the scale of a map (bridges, overpasses, dams etc.). For such objects there is established a digitizing rule on an axial line from edge to edge, as in "ICE 2004" (in "ICE 2008" from the centre of a sign to the edge). Such approach corresponds to rules of the description of topological relations, adopted in the formation of spatial databases. Classifiers are fully compatible with digital maps created by the Federal Program "GLONASS" in 2008-2011 in Rosreester (more than 110 thousands of digital topographic maps and plans of cities, "ICE 2004"). The digital topographic maps created earlier, can be brought to new universal classifiers by means of the Complex of automated quality check and correction of maps (contains more than 30 tables of recoding for different classifiers). Digital classifiers in format RSC and detailed reports on the contents of classifiers of digital topographic maps for scales 1: 50 000, 1: 100 000 and 1: 200 000 are placed on the Classifiers page.
20.11.2012GIS WebService version 4.1 is intended for construction of scalable systems In KB "Panorama" the GIS WebService version 4.1 is developed. The new version of the service is based on a common platform with GIS WebServer. For information systems with small load the service is deployed simultaneously with GIS WebServer, without requiring customization of a separate website. In systems with the big load or at great volumes of data the additional copies of GIS WebService are installed on separate servers, providing scalability of the application. GIS WebService contains the built-in tools for formation and accumulation of cartographical images (tiles) from various sources, including data from the GIS Server. To provide the maximum speed of work at once after installation of application (when tiles have not accumulated in sufficient quantity for comfortable work) it is necessary to use the ImageryCreator program. ImageryCreator will in advance prepare pyramids of tiles, and in case of modification of vector maps will automatically update the relevant fragments of pyramid. GIS WebService supports common protocols OGC WMTS and OGC WMS, providing access to the spatial data for both desktop and web-based clients. The new version of the program and the documentation are available on the website in the Download section.
20.11.2012?omplex of automated quality control and correction of maps supports round-the-clock automatic processing of digital maps In KB "Panorama" the Complex of the automated quality control and correction of maps of version 5.3 is developed. In the task "Control and correction of digital topographic maps in format SXF" there is added the analysis of the classifier of the source file and the output classifier to which recode is carried out. If names of classifiers coincide, recode is not carried out, SXF-file loading is carried out with the output classifier. It allows to avoid an error of repeated recoding the data at restart of procedure of control and correction of digital maps. In addition to the processing mode "Control", "Edit", "Control + Edit" there is added the mode "Control not to perform." The new mode allows to do recoding the maps (conversion to a single classifier) without performance of control and provides more flexible use of the program: recode and control of maps can be performed in two stages. In all programs of the complex there is added automatic closing of program MS Word which is carrying out in a background mode a formation of report documents. It provides automatic round-the-clock work of programs without increase in volume of used computer resources. The new version of the program and the documentation are available on the website in the Download section.

In the complex of urban-planning tasks new modes are added: "Loading of data from XML-file of of real estate cadastre", "To print a map (plan) of object of land management", "Register of engineering communications". The structure of a database regarding data about the ground areas is updated. For import of the data from a real estate cadastre the automated reading of data in XML format by schemes of Rosreester is provided: STD_KPT - cadastral plan of territory; STD_Region_Cadastr_KV - cadastral extract about object of real estate; STD_Region_Cadastr_KP - cadastral passport of real estate object. Data from a real estate cadastre is put on a digital map in the form of objects with filled semantics. New mode "To print a map (plan) of object of land management" provides formation of text reports and XML-documents for objects of land management - borders of settlements, functional and territorial zones. Processing of XML-schemes is provided: STD_ZONE - territorial zones and zones with special conditions of using the territories and STD_BND - information on parts of the borders, passed into the state cadastre of real estate. Reports and XML-documents are formed on the basis of information from metrics and semantics of map objects. The necessary set of objects and semantics is included into structure of classifiers survey.rsc and survey.v3.rsc into the layer the MAP-PLAN. In the "Register of the ground areas" dialog a processing of new characteristics of the ground area is added: "date of entering the cadastral cost", "description of permitted use type", "sign of presence of the registered rights", "date of updating the information about the rights". The new mode "Register of engineering communications" provides creation and maintenance of registers of various networks of engineering communications. Management by structure of networks of their elements and attributive characteristics is stipulated. For each of registers there is provided formation of reports and inquiries. Modes of forming the permissive documentation (building permits, permission to commissioning) are modified. There is implemented technology of customizing procedure of filling the report on conformity of semantics and key fields in a report template. Now the user by himself can include into the report a combination of semantic characteristics and specify their conformity to the key fields. Reports templates of the permissive documentation and the operational documentation are updated. The new version of the program and the documentation are available on the website in the Download section.
15.11.2012GIS WebServer 7.5 simplifies deployment and administration of regional, municipal and corporate geoportals In KB "Panorama" the GIS WebServer version 7.5 is developed. Cartographical web service GIS WebService is integrated into structure of new GIS WebServer. GIS WebServer sends queries to cartographical web service via protocol OGC WMTS for displaying spatial data. The inclusion of service into the GIS WebServer reduces implementation cost of geoportal, simplifies deployment and administration of geoportal. The new mode of printing a map with use of standard print tools of the browser is implemented. Updating allows to print the multilayered cartographical image formed on the basis of the data received from several web services. Elements of the interface are not related to the map are cut, allowing more effectively to use the space available for printing. If there is an information about selected object, it also goes to print. Possibilities of remote administration via the web interface of GIS WebAdministrator are expanded. The mechanism of access control of users to administration tools is realized. At the simultaneous access of several administrators the first addressed user has the right of editing and saving the settings. To the rest there is available only viewing the current settings, while the first will not finish the work. Support of cross-platform of WMTS-services is improved. For their organization there can be used both GIS WebService, running on a platform of IIS (Windows), and the program Open GIS WebService, running on a platform of Apache (Linux, BSD, OS X, Microsoft Windows). Services support data transfer protocol OGC Web Map Tile Service (OGC WMTS) - OGC 07-057r7 version 1.0.0. Use of the OGC WMTS provides maximum speed of viewing spatial data.

12.11.2012In GIS Server additional tools of data protection are embedded KB "Panorama" has developed GIS Server version 4.0. The new version has improved protection of data opened from the GIS Server. All data that are stored on the client computer in a cache for work acceleration always are encrypted by 256-bit key formed from the server key and the client's key. The new algorithm of digest-authorisation of the data is applied to prevent interception of the user's password at connection to the GIS Server. There is added the ability to work off-line with data from the cache at loss of connection with GIS Server. At absence (short-term loss) of connection with the GIS Server the data access automatically goes into the mode "Read only, Prevent printing Prevent copying". When communication is restored, access is automatically changed to the one that is set for the user on the GIS Server, and automatic replication of data in the cache regarding the changed data is carried out. GIS Server Administrator can prohibit work offline with data. If the GIS Server Administrator cancels access to data for a given group of users, then maps on respective clients will be automatically closed with deleting the data from the cache. If GIS Server Administrator has prohibited offline work with the data, then client programs of versions lower than 11.10.3 that do not support encryption, can open the data on the GIS Server. GIS Server is available in three versions: GIS Server x64 (for x64 and x32, without limiting the number of customers), the GIS Server (Platform x32, without limiting the number of customers), the GIS Server Mini (for platform x32, up to 10 clients). Program of the GIS Server can be delivered in three variants: GIS Server x64 (for platforms x64 and x32, without limiting the number of clients), GIS Server (for platform x32, without limiting the number of clients), GIS Server Mini (for platform x32, up to 10 clients). The new version of the program is available for download on the Download page.

The project is created on the base of open digital topographic maps of scale 1:100 000 and city map of scale 1:25 000 in format SXF. Transition between a general map and a map of the city is done automatically by means of technology "Atlas of maps". GIS WebServer is a base of corporate GIS-platform for collaboration of web-clients and desktop applications. Within the limits of system the users of desktop applications (GIS "Panorama 11", GIS "Operator", GIS Panorama Mini and others) and users of web applications can work simultaneously with the same sources of data, carry out their agreed change and viewing. To date, the platform is being implemented in companies operating in the extractive industry, energy and agricultural sectors, as well as in bodies of state administration. The main data sources are WMTS-services and popular geoportals (Google, Yandex, OpenStreetMap). For the organization of one's own WMTS-service the program Open GIS WebService is used. The program supports data transfer standard OGC Web Map Tile Service (OGC WMTS) - OGC 07-057r7 version 1.0.0. Use of standard OGC WMTS provides quick work of the client with static background maps. The new version of the program and the documentation are available on the website in the Download section.

23.10.2012FSBI "Rosselhoscenter" use GIS technologies for tasks of phyto-monitoring Since 2010 FSBI "Rosselhoscenter" applies GIS "Panorama11" and "Panorama AGRO" to perform tasks in the field of phytosanitary monitoring. Phytosanitary monitoring - a system of supervision and control of distribution, density, intensity of development and harmfulness of organisms. In 2012 the department of phyto-monitoring of central office of FSBI "Rosselhoscenter" had developed the classifier for making phyto-monitoring in plant protection using GIS. On the basis of these data by experts of KB "Panorama" the digital classifier of a map agro10t.rsc was developed, containing such sections as agroecological groups and kinds of lands, harmful objects of agricultural plants, sources of natural disaster and others. Into the new version of the classifier several tens of layers are added, including 561 object. Semantics of objects contains over 2 thousand characteristics. The library of programmable signs is added. The use of the classifier in agriculture will allow to increase the efficiency of the solving the tasks of logistics, navigation, supply and many others. In connection with the development of the new classifier, employees of KB "Panorama" conducted training courses for specialists of FSBI "Rosselhoscenter on the use of GIS technologies in phyto-monitoring. Phytomonitoring has key importance in system of the integrated protection of plants. The main advantages of using the GIS in protection of plants is a visualization of the phyto-monitoring data, high accuracy in determining inhabited by pests, infected with illnesses and the weedy areas, optimization on this basis of protective actions. Result of work of the GIS is creation of a high-precision map with indication of the fixed centres. On the basis of the data of this map it is possible to make the analysis of the spread of harmful objects and to undertake necessary protective actions. You can download the classifier on the website in "Classifiers" section.
19.10.2012Complex of automated quality control and correction of maps merges maps in territory of any size In KB "Panorama" the Complex of automated quality control and correction of maps of version 5 is developed. The complex provides the automated stream processing of digital maps of scales from 1: 10 000 to 1: 1 000 000 in format SXF for the purpose of reduction to a single classifier, performance of automatic correction of topology errors, the matching of the adjacent sheets along lines of a geographical grid and union of digital maps into united data sets. Experience of the adjacent organisations shows, that the initial cartographical data, as a rule, contain thousands errors on sheet (self-crossings, topology, semantics, reporting, etc.). At data processing by programs of the complex the most of errors are corrected automatically. Corrected data in exchange format SXF are placed into bank of spatial data, work with which provides the Complex of maintaining a databank of digital maps and data of remote sensing the Earth. In the new version of the complex of automated quality control and correction of maps there is added ability of a correct merge into one map of the array of adjacent sheets of the digital topographic maps covering territory of any size (on a longitude and on latitude). Depending on length of source region the automatic installation of a recommended output map projection is carried out. In particular, sheets of topographic maps within 1-3 zones can be combined into one topographical map (projection of Gauss-Krueger or UTM) with an axial meridian of the central zone; the sheets of maps coming north or south of 60 degrees on latitude, without coming out off equator, having length no more than 120 degrees on a longitude, can be combined on the basis of a conical projection; the sheets of maps located in limits from-60 to +60 degrees on latitude can be combined on the basis of the Cylindrical Mercator projection; world maps can be formed on the basis of projection of cylindrical Miller. Recommended projection provides a correctness of uniting the objects of source area of any size. Results of work of the complex are recorded into the report. The task of checking the quality of a map in format SXF is improved: the control scheme of maps of scale 1:1 000 000 is added, control schemes of maps of scales from 1:10 000 to 1:500 000 are refined. The new version of the program and the documentation are available on Download page.

The new interface provides viewing and editing data in a complex on the entire object of cadastral works, including: the general information about object of cadastral works, information about the location (address), about documents-bases, about geodetic basis, about external contours and internal parts of the ground area. Possibility of simultaneous editing of data on external contours allows users to make operatively changes for the multiplanimetric ground areas and for a single land use . The program automatically defines quantity and structure of parts of the ground area on all contours and gives to user the possibility to make necessary changes for each part of the ground area in one dialog. Improved dialog "Editing semantics of object of cadastral works" significantly reduces the time onr preparing the initial data for formation of surveying plans, as in the form of the report, and in the form of XML-file. Procedure of forming an XML-file of the surveying plan is improved. There is realized the processing of clarified adjacent plots (element SpecifyRelatedParcel) for a package of plots formation (FormParcel) to clarification of borders (ExistParcel) by improved algorithm. Now it is not necessary to mark the adjacent ground areas on a map, the program will find them automatically by their common border. Information about points of the common part of borders are formed in a detour direction clockwise for the adjacent plot (the attribute Ord_Nmb) that is an opposite direction of detour for object of cadastral works. Changes have been made in accordance with the recommendations of the regional cadastral chambers, that receives the surveying plans. The new version of the program is available for download on the Download page.

In the task "Land-plan" at XML file formation there is added a filling the list of coordinates for the separated and conditional plots which are a part of a single land use at clarifying the borders of a single land use (type of a plot contour - changed or clarified). Rounding of the area of contours for a multiplanimetric site and the separated (conditional) plots which are a part of a single land use is carried out up to 0.01 metres. Changes are made to structure of description of a characteristic point of borders, processing of information about SCP of point and a type of point fixation is added. In clarifying the boundaries there is implemented a saving the information of the clarified adjacent ground areas. Saving the information about clarified adjacent lands is performed by parts of borders where one adjacent part of border corresponds to one element SpecifyRelatedParcel. Saving an information about an adjacent part of boundaries is performed in accordance with the rules of format and logic control (FLC) of AIS of State Realty Cadastre. In the task "Technical plan" there is implemented text entry of the conclusion of cadastral engineer and its insert into the report and XML file (Conclusion element). Interface for input of data about applications to the technical plan is developed. There is provided the filling of all necessary properties of applications (name, series, number, etc.) and saving of graphic files containing scanned copies of various documents, and their attributive description into XML file in accordance with the Order of Rosreester ?

There is realized ability to run multiple instances of the program of monitoring and updating a map in mode of system service. The system service carries out the start of a set of the program instances according to the list preliminary prepared in the program "Launch Manager". It does not require user log-in, as the service is performed before loading the user's desktop. Previously, it was possible to include the program into the Startup list of the system, but this list is performed only after the authorization of the user, this did not allow without operator intervention to resume the monitoring after a forced reboot of the operating system. The program of monitoring a database and updating a map of version 5.3 at performing the operations of data synchronisation in a cyclic mode (by timer) can "catch up" the configuration file without a process stop. If the settings are changed (for example, the administrator has made changes to the configuration file or switched them), the program will automatically recognize it and will apply the new settings with the next iteration of data update. Each instance of the program conducts its own log of work that can be saved to a text file with specified intervals. Providing remote access to viewing these files-protocols, user can remotely monitor the process of working the program. Access to the application's log can be organized as a file access in the local network, and the publication on the Internet, for example, through web servers IIS or Apache. The new version of the program is available for download on the Download page.

Complex of geodesy tasks is improved. In the XML-document "Land-Plan" the recording of information about the location of an object ("Location" element) as compound type of the data "tAdress" is provided, formation of arbitrary address in unformalized kind (an element "Note") is deleted. In the XML-document "Technical plan" there is corrected the elements filling: Spelement_Unit - information about the current point; Ordinate - information about the coordinates of the current point; Coord_System - information about the coordinate system. Current actual XML-schemes "Land-Plan" and "Technical plan" are realised in the digital classifier survey.v3.rsc. The insert into the XML-file of value of the area of a building (construction, an object under construction or room) by new algorithm is realised. The object area is requested from semantics, and at its absence is calculated by a map. This possibility allows to use the cartographical image of object characterising an external contour of a building (construction, an object under construction or room) for transfer of data about useful area (minus a thickness of walls) from its semantics. XML-files generated in the new version of the program are logical control of structure in the program XMLvalide.exe without errors. In dialog "Land-Plan" there is added the ability to call the dialog "Editing of semantics of object the GROUND AREA". It provides input and editing the information about the ground area and its parts, without exiting the mode of formation of the surveying plan. There is added support for printing maps on the background of data from popular geoportals. List of geoportals, including Google, Yahoo!, OpenStreetMap, Virtual Earth, Yandex, Kosmosnimki, is available on the main panel of GIS. Ability is added to change the displayed projection and coordinate system at the time of displaying the data from geoportals. Requested from geoportals tiles are transformed into target projection and coordinate system on the fly. Over the data from geoportals the vector maps, rasters and matrixes can open. The new version is available at the Download page.
25.05.2012In GIS "Operator" the print of maps jointly with data of popular geoportals is realized The image of district on geoportals is presented in the form of tiles (images) of the certain scales and coordinate systems. For combining tiles with maps, rasters and matrixes of the user it is necessary on the fly to scale and transform tiles. In the GIS "Operator" of version 11.9.1 there is implemented a combining the data from various geoportals with maps, rasters and the matrixes that are open locally or through the GIS Server in arbitrary coordinate systems for editing and a print. For recalculations of arbitrary projections and systems of coordinates of tiles and maps the structure of the GIS includes a database of codes EPSG and corresponding parameters of flat and geodetic systems of coordinates. It allows to put operational situation in any point of the Earth or to trace the movement of mobile objects on navigation data without preliminary preparation of maps or with use of any national spatial data. Symbols of operational situation are formed according to requirements of standard KEUZ-2012. Symbols on digital topographical maps are formed according to requirements of the Common Information Cartographic software, approved by Chief of Military Topographic Directorate. Into the Options menu the item Cursor type is added to select large (on the whole window) or a small crosshair or arrow.

The classifier is developed in accordance with the Order of the Ministry of Regional Development of the Russian Federation on January 30, 2012 ? 19 " About approval of requirements to the description and display in documents of territorial planning of the objects of federal importance, objects of regional importance, objects of local importance". Classifier describes the general list of layers, objects, conventional symbols and attributive characteristics of objects of town-planning activity. The classifier can be used for creation of schemes of territorial planning the Russian Federation, schemes of territorial planning of subjects and municipal formations of the Russian Federation, general plans of city districts and municipality settlements. Composition of the classifier provides preparation of schemes of town-planning zoning according to requirements of rules of land tenure and development of the municipality. The digital classifier of a map terrplan.rsc is developed for preparation of a graphic part of documents of territorial planning in the GIS "Map 2011". For reducing the list of conventional symbols in the classifier there are used the programmable conventional symbols which automatically form the image of a symbol of the desired kind and the size, taking into account a set of attributive characteristics of object. It has allowed to form 783 base symbols from 1 200 symbols. A similar approach is used in the standard of the International Hydrographic Organization S52/S57 that allows to receive approximately from 500 base symbols the various conventional symbols in view of properties of objects. Use of set of digital classifiers terrplan.rsc and survey.v3.rsc provides preparation of town-planning plans of the ground areas and other documents of town-planning activity.

03.05.2012Complex of automatic vectorization of images of version 2 processes vegetation, hydrography and a road net In KB "Panorama" the Complex of automated decoding and vectorization according to data of remote sensing of the Earth of version 2 is developed. The new version carries out an automatic vectoring of a road net, hydrography and vegetation by images of air and space photographing with the permission up to three meters. Automatic vectorization is performed on the basis of recognition of raster areas belonging to the object with use of the patterns digitized by the user. Process of an automatic vectoring consists of preliminary processing a raster, classification, processing of a classification raster, transformation of a raster to a vector and vector processing. The classification is based on the formation of training samples, detecting and memorizing statistical decoding characteristics, including spectral (average color) and textural characteristics (contrast, energy, correlation). For recognition of the areal objects the multiclass classifier is used allowing simultaneously to vectorize several types of objects. The differentiated approach to shadow areas on the image improves quality of contouring on border of areas of different classes. In the program the parallel calculations are used, that considerably increases speed of processing at an execution on computers with multiprocessor (multi-core) architecture. For processing a raster of classification the morphological operations are used - change of a binary state of pixel on the base of state's analysis of its neighbours. These operations include: erosion,increasing, deleting of small areas and filling of small areas. Recognized raster areas are filtered, smoothed and transformed into segments of linear and polygon vector objects. With contours of objects the operations of union, filtration and smoothing are performed. The vector map of recognition results is exported to formats SXF and SHP. The new version of the program and the documentation are available on the Download page.

Algorithms of mapping the following groups of conventional symbols are changed: Control points, Marching columns, Boundaries, Weapon in view of requirements of the document the Classifier of electronic conventional symbols of operative situation, approved in 2012. New algorithms allow to reduce in several times the number of conventional symbols in the classifier. The conventional symbol of object on a map is automatically formed from a base conventional symbol of the object view in view of a concrete combination of values of semantic characteristics. Such approach reduces time of a choosing the necessary symbol from library and reduces number of the operator errors. Instead of a choosing a picture the operator enters into semantics of object the known to him information about the state belonging, a state, mobility, security, properties of vehicles, arms and so on. Programmable signs themselves determine a view of a suitable symbol. The similar approach is used in the standard of the International Hydrographic Organization to display sea navigation charts S57/S52. Examples of the symbols dependent on values of semantics, are described in the document \Doc\Operator's guide. The new version of the program is available on the site in Download section.

23.03.2012KB Panorama has developed Complex of automated decoding and vectorization according to data of remote sensing of the Earth The first version of the Complex of automated decoding and vectorization is intended for an automatic vectoring of linear objects by color RGB images of the earth's surface. The basic direction of using the complex in the current version is the automatic vectoring of a road net by images of air and space photographing with the permission up to three meters. The complex includes a set of algorithms of processing the raster images and the vector objects combined into a single technological process, running within the project. Automatic vectorization is performed on the basis of recognition of raster areas belonging to the object with use of the patterns digitized by the user. Process of an automatic vectoring consists of preliminary processing a raster, classification, processing of a classification raster, transformation of a raster to a vector and vector processing. Classification - process of determining the belonging of the separate pixels of a source raster to one or another recognizable object. The classification is based on the formation of training samples, detecting and memorizing statistical decoding characteristics, including spectral (average color) and textural characteristics (contrast, energy, correlation). For processing a raster of classification the morphological operations are used - change of a binary state of pixel on the base of state's analysis of its neighbours. These operations include: erosion,increasing, deleting of small areas and filling of small areas. Recognized raster areas are filtered, smoothed and transformed into segments of linear vector objects. With linear objects the operations of union, filtration and smoothing are performed. The vector map of recognition results is exported to formats SXF and SHP. Processing can be done in stages, for selection of parameters, or in a stream mode. Parameters of a test vectoring can be used for an automatic vectoring the block of the one-type rasters. The new version of the program and the documentation are available on the Download page.
22.03.2012GIS "Map 2011" uses the data from UAV to solve the tasks of mapping GIS "Map 2011" and other products of KB "Panorama" use the data of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for decision of tasks of mapping. Use of such kind of data gives following advantages: efficiency of obtaining images, an opportunity of survey from low heights and near objects, obtaining high-resolution images, an opportunity of application in emergency zones without risk for a life and health of pilots. To implement the preparation of data from UAVs for use in the GIS "Map 2011" it is possible by means of software PHOTOMOD ("Racurs").

31.01.2012In KB "Panorama" the program of analysis of multispectral images is developed Complex of analysis of multispectral images is intended for calculation of statistics on channels and customizing displayed channels of a multispectral image for solving the tasks of decoding and a vectoring of terrain objects. Multispectral images are processed in files of format GeoTIFF. Images can contain any number of channels, description of one channel can take up to 16 bits per pixel. Tasks of the complex allow to explore characteristics of the image (spectral properties, histogram) and to choose parameters for displaying the separate channels or their combinations in the form, providing detection of decoding attributes of objects and digitizing of their contours. Two modes of display are accessible to multispectral images - RGB mode and vegetation index. The image with current settings can be saved in a file of RSW format for automatic decoding and a vectoring. In RGB mode the image is saved into RSW with depth of color of 24 bits (8 bits on 3 channels). Vegetation index can be saved also into a matrix of qualities MTQ in which real value of vegetation index without reduction to the range of a palette is placed. The program is installed as the additional application to the GIS "Map 2011". The new version of the program and the documentation are available for download on Download page.
