03.07.2026"Agronomist Workstation" Updated with Crop Area Analysis and Agricultural Land Mapping Tools KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.5.6 of the "Agronomist Workstation". This new version enhances tools used for maintaining digital agricultural land maps, processing remote sensing data, assessing terrain, and preparing reports on crop cultivation technologies. In the task, functions for calculating the EVI, CVI, and GNDVI vegetation indices have been added. EVI is used for assessing dense vegetation and biomass; CVI for analyzing chlorophyll content and identifying early signs of plant stress; and GNDVI for evaluating photosynthetic activity and crop status during early growth stages. Calculations are performed using multispectral imagery data from satellites or UAVs, enabling the generation of crop condition maps, identification of zones with uneven plant development, and refinement of areas for field surveys. To display the computed indices in the "Multispectral Image Analysis" task, users can apply predefined grayscale or color palettes, or load palettes from RSW or MTQ files. Display parameters set in the dialog are automatically applied to all open multispectral images. The vegetation index map can be saved as an MTQ quality matrix. Such matrices are used in preparing thematic crop cartograms and comparing survey results with field maps, crop rotation records, soil agrochemical data, and completed field operations. In the task, when creating a new feature by entering coordinates from the keyboard, it is now also possible to load point coordinates for feature geometry nodes from SHP, OGC GML, and GeoJSON files. This allows the transfer of field boundaries, work plots, drainage elements, access roads, and other farm features from exchange materials without manual coordinate entry. Added modes include and . The first creates area and linear features based on the inner contours of one or more selected features; the second deletes sub-features of area features and additional contours of linear features within a user-specified area. These modes are useful for refining the structure of digital agricultural maps, separating internal contours, removing unnecessary sub-features, or preparing correct geometry for work plots for further recording and analysis. Retrieval and display of terrain data requested via the OGC WCS standard from coverage services published via have been accelerated. OGC defines a "coverage" as a grid-based model of terrain, environmental quality, or a phenomenon varying in space or time. An optimal algorithm for using coverages for visualization and spatial analysis has been implemented. When viewing a map from the server, image tiles of the landscape corresponding to the current scale are requested with multi-level height generalization, resulting in faster terrain visualization. For analytical operations, such as terrain profile construction and slope calculation, queries for numerical height values are made from the highest-resolution coverage. For agricultural use, this data aids in slope analysis, assessing water runoff conditions, selecting tillage directions, and preparing reclamation materials. The full-screen map display mode, , has been enhanced. In this mode, users can add simple graphic objects to the map using a touch screen or mouse, rotate the map, and save screenshots to PNG, JPG, TIF, and BMP files. This mode can be called from the main menu "Window – Full Screen" and is useful for discussing field production situations, machinery routes, crop survey plans, and areas requiring crop condition clarification. In the dialog, the ability to save feature attribute tables in HTML and DBF formats has been added. HTML is suitable for viewing tables in a web browser and preparing reports, while DBF allows further processing in information systems. Exporting attributes of field boundaries, work plots, and other map features in these formats simplifies data exchange between the agronomy service, farm management systems, and external contractors. The new version is available for download in the Download section.

30.06.2026Spatial Data Fund Performance Enhanced with AI Technologies KB "Panorama" has developed version 9.8.0 of the . The new version optimizes handling of large volumes of spatial data (over 5 million records). With the growth of federal spatial data funds, constantly supplemented with digital maps, remote sensing materials, and metadata, the load on the information system increases. Analyzing performance and identifying bottlenecks was addressed using artificial intelligence technologies, enabling detailed analysis of executed queries, identification of the most resource-intensive operations, and determination of further optimization directions. Optimizing the processing of large data volumes allows the Digital Maps and Remote Sensing Data Bank System to serve as a platform for building centralized spatial information repositories. Enhanced performance ensures stable system operation amidst continuous growth in digital maps, remote sensing materials, and metadata, reduces user query processing time, and supports further scaling of state information resources. New metadata synchronization modes with the schematic map improve spatial information management by visually displaying coverage zones. Users can view all objects on the map, only search/filter results, or only selected records. This reduces visual load when working with large spatial datasets, accelerates analysis of territory coverage, and enables quick comparison of tabular and cartographic data. Saving selected display modes for each data type ensures a consistent user environment and improves usability. Data security is ensured through access rights management based on operating system security features. Supported are normal authentication, digest authentication, system authentication (via web server), and domain authentication (Kerberos or ActiveDirectory). Additional security is provided via end-to-end authentication when working with the database. Database connections are made with the permissions of the user operating the system. The system is adapted to work on a wide range of operating systems (Astra Linux SE, Ubuntu, RED OS, MS Windows, etc.) and architectures (Intel, Elbrus, Baikal). The program is registered in the Russian Software Registry under number 1862. The Digital Maps and Remote Sensing Data Bank serves as a foundation for building spatial data infrastructure at federal, regional, and municipal levels, as well as in corporate information systems. Within a unified geospatial environment, it enables collection, storage, quality control, search, and delivery of spatial data in exchange formats. Data selected via the program can be made available for multi-user access on the and published via international OGC standards (WFS, WFS-T, WMS, WMTS, WCS) on the application server. Users can access data via thin client () or desktop applications (, ). The Digital Maps and Remote Sensing Data Bank supports building cloud spatial data storage, providing access to this data, and automated generation/update of geoportrayals. The current state of spatial data is displayed using schematic maps maintained for each stored data type: vector maps, remote sensing data, elevation matrices, and terrain models. The system supports remote placement of spatial datasets into file storage, versioning of stored datasets, updating data availability maps, automated metadata collection and generation, and formation/update of geoportrayals. Metadata collection and generation follows ISO 19115:2003 (Geographic information – Metadata) and ISO/TS 19139 (Geographic information – Metadata – XML schema implementation). Reduced image copies are automatically generated, file checksums are verified, and dataset completeness is checked. Placing spatial data into file storage includes integrity verification, structure control, and data content validation. Work results are logged and entered into the metadata database. Automatic backup of metadata and spatial data storage is provided with integrity control and data recovery. Multilingual interface is supported. The portal demonstrates capabilities for organizing storage, accounting, and delivery of vector maps, remote sensing data, elevation matrices, and terrain models. The portal contains vector maps in SXF format, compiled from open sources (OpenStreetMap, VMap0). Spatial data includes maps of Russian Federation subjects, countries, and cities in the near and far abroad, totaling over 450 vector maps and 6,700 matrix datasets with a total volume exceeding 250 GB.

The current version of GIS "Panorama" is available for download in the Download section.
25.06.2026GIS "Panorama" Enhanced with Automated Remote Sensing Processing and Digital Map Updating Tools KB "Panorama" has developed . This version includes improved means for processing remote sensing data, automatic image recognition, and detection of unregistered features. Tools for creating and updating digital terrain maps have been enhanced. A task for deploying UAV detection and Electronic Warfare (EW) assets has been added. The geodetic and cadastral toolset now includes enhanced data collection and reporting tools for describing the location of boundaries of objects from the boundary register. Automated report generation has been implemented for agroforestry and agrophytomelioration surveys in accordance with Russian Ministry of Agriculture Order No. 225 dated April 26, 2024. In the task, new functions for calculating the EVI, CVI, and GNDVI vegetation indices have been added. These indices are designed for assessing vegetation state, identifying crop stress, and analyzing green cover density from satellite and UAV imagery. EVI is used for dense vegetation and biomass assessment, being less sensitive to atmospheric interference and soil background than classic NDVI, and works better in areas with dense vegetation. It uses Blue, Red, and Near-Infrared (NIR) channels, calculated as: EVI = G * (NIR - Red) / (NIR + C1 * Red - C2 * Blue + L), where G, C1, C2, L are user-adjustable coefficients. Practical EVI ranges: below 0 (water, snow, shadows), 0-0.2 (bare soil/sparse vegetation), 0.2-0.5 (moderate vegetation), above 0.5 (dense vegetation). CVI focuses on chlorophyll content, identifying early signs of plant stress, moisture deficit, and nitrogen deficiency. It uses Green, Red, and NIR channels: CVI = (NIR * Red) / (Green^2). Practical CVI ranges: 0-1 (soil/sparse vegetation), 1-5 (moderate vegetation), above 5 (active green biomass). GNDVI serves to assess photosynthetic activity and chlorophyll content, more sensitive to early-stage changes than NDVI, using Green and NIR channels: GNDVI = (NIR - Green) / (NIR + Green). Practical GNDVI ranges: below 0 (water, shadows, non-vegetated surfaces), 0-0.2 (sparse vegetation), 0.2-0.5 (moderate vegetation), above 0.5 (active dense vegetation). Display can use predefined grayscale/color palettes or load from RSW/MTQ files. Display changes apply to all open multispectral images by default. The vegetation index map can also be saved as an MTQ quality matrix. Multispectral images are loaded via: "File – Import raster and matrix from ... – (BMP, TIFF, JPEG ...)". In the and tasks, functions for saving recognition parameters and managing processing requests have been added. These changes aim to reduce manual operations and improve usability when processing large areas. When selecting an output area "By feature," the selected feature's contour is sent to the server with the request. Upon final processing, all recognized features are automatically clipped to the original contour boundary. This allows interpretation strictly within the boundaries of a selected feature (rather than a rectangular area), useful for processing administrative parcels and cadastral contours. A mechanism for saving recognition profiles in JSON format has been added. All parameters, including neural network model, recognizable object class, and advanced vectorization parameters, are automatically saved when the dialog is closed and restored on next launch. Furthermore, "Save Profile" and "Load Profile" buttons allow transferring settings between workstations or using pre-prepared parameter sets for different data types. In the "Search for unregistered features" task, the option to select reference features using a map filter has been added. After setting the filter, matching features are automatically highlighted on the map, simplifying source data control before processing. Selected objects are also saved in the recognition profile and restored on next launch. For easier request list management, the ability to delete completed requests via context menu has been implemented, keeping the processing list current and speeding up result retrieval. The "Copy layer to map" command has also been added, allowing recognition results to be transferred directly onto the current map. If the recognized layer was generated for the same map, objects are automatically recoded from the panvision.rsc classifier to the current map's classifier. The task is designed to identify buildings, roads, water bodies, agricultural land, forestry features, and vehicles in satellite and aerial imagery. The "Search for unregistered features" task additionally compares recognition results with a reference map to identify features missing in the source data. Retrieval and display of terrain data via the OGC WCS protocol has been accelerated. Visualization considers the current map scale: tiles corresponding to the current zoom level are requested from the server for faster display. However, for analytical operations—terrain profile construction, point query, and other computations—data from the highest available resolution is always used. Connecting to allows rapid height data retrieval for the entire globe. For instance, the GEBCO layer with 15-arc-second resolution includes ocean bathymetry data, seafloor topography, underwater feature names, and land/ice surface elevation data. In the task, a new mode has been added. This mode is intended for creating an arc object defined by three points: center, start, and end. If the map supports geodetic coordinate calculation, constructions are performed on the ellipsoid; if not, in the map's planar rectangular coordinate system. When creating a new feature by keyboard coordinate input, geometry node point coordinates can also be loaded from SHP, OGC GML, or GeoJSON exchange format files. A mode has been added to create area and linear features based on inner contours of one or more selected features. Upon activation, the user selects the type of feature to create, then chooses an area feature containing sub-features. New features will be created for each inner contour of the selected feature. To create features from sub-features of multiple features, those area features must be selected before activating the mode. Feature selection can be done via the "Map feature search" dialog or other selection methods. A mode has been added. This mode allows deleting sub-features of area features and additional contours of linear features within a user-defined area. When processing multipolygons, inner and outer sub-features are deleted, except the main contour. To use: select the editable feature, draw an arbitrary contour defining the area (finish with a double left-click), and sub-features within the selected feature are deleted. Drawing additional areas for the selected feature repeats deletion in the new area. The system has been enhanced with a and a mode. The component optimizes the placement of reconnaissance assets (visual or radar for low-altitude air objects) and radio-electronic warfare means within a designated positional area. It includes a database of Russian radars and EW systems (such as Polyana, MGLA–04m, Peroed-S, Gipnoz-103, Volna 2, Volna 3, Volna-Khrust 360, GBSH 950) aimed at suppressing UAV control channels, satellite navigation (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Beidou), and providing spoofed coordinates for UAV disorientation. The "Dam break wave modeling" mode calculates the propagation of a flood wave in case of a dam/dike failure, generating a flood wave advance graph, a map, and a flood inundation matrix. In the task, a mode for overlaying a geodetic coordinate grid on a map inset frame has been added. The coordinate grid is formed with spacing specified in the task parameters dialog. A frame is created around the map inset, with latitude and longitude values for the generated grid lines. Rebuilding is automatic when editing the inset contour or its content (scale change, move, rotate). A new toolbar is added for the "Edit inset content" mode, appearing upon activation, containing auxiliary modes accessible via right-click menu or hotkeys. The full-screen map display mode, , has been enhanced. Designed for quickly adding simple objects to maps during briefings and presentations, it supports input via touch screens or mouse, creating various graphic objects, rotating the map, and saving screenshots to PNG, JPG, TIF, BMP. The task is launched from: "Window – Full Screen (Alt+Enter)." The application task has been improved. It automatically generates a minimum altitude map from obstacle maps and terrain elevation matrices. The minimum altitude map contains labels for minimum safe flight altitudes and most dangerous objects within cells of a specified size. An intermediate output is a terrain elevation map with cell contours colored according to standard hypsometry and containing absolute maximum height values per cell in attributes. Additionally, a point object indicates the location of the maximum height within each cell. Maximum cell height can be calculated using MORA rules (strictly within cell boundaries) or AMA rules (within cell plus an 8 km buffer zone). New version features: significantly increased processing speed for elevation matrices, improved user interface, and the ability to select a map area for minimum altitude map creation. Elevation matrices from web services via WCS protocol are supported. Generated maps are applicable in the Aeronautical Information Preparation Suite. In the dialog, the ability to export feature attribute tables to HTML and DBF formats has been added. HTML provides convenient tabular data representation for web browsers and report preparation; DBF enables further processing in various information systems, databases, and specialized software. Expanding the supported format list simplifies data exchange between different software packages and enhances usability of cartographic outputs. In the task, the mode now processes objects from the boundary register: settlements, territorial zones, specially protected natural areas, zones with special conditions of territory use, agricultural land, and forest park green belts. The program analyzes the cadastral object type, reads necessary map data, and generates text boundary descriptions. Descriptions for settlements, territorial zones, specially protected areas, and zones with special conditions follow forms approved by Ministry of Economic Development Order No. 650 (Nov 23, 2018). Agricultural land descriptions follow Rosreestr Order No. P/0339/25 (Sept 19, 2025). Forest park green belt descriptions follow Rosreestr Order No. P/0230 (June 21, 2023). In the mode, it is now possible to select a document from the cadastral works database to automatically populate information on land category, permitted use, property address, and access provision. The list of attributes for certain cadastral object categories has been expanded. The dialog has been updated, allowing analysis and processing of generated electronic cadastral documents, including map (plan) of land management object, boundary plan, territory map-plan, technical plan, property inspection act, etc. The XML content displays as a tree of elements and attributes; selecting a specific tree node allows modifying element and attribute values. The mode has been updated for XML generation according to version 01. Address element now includes OKATO and OKTMO data. The Area element automatically fills the Formula value based on program settings if not specified in the property's semantics. The cadastral works database management tools and their use in cadastral document generation have been enhanced. The address table structure used for populating physical and legal entity information has been updated. Address division type accounting ensures synchronization between the cadastral works database and the State Address Register database. In the "Parcel location diagram on the CTP" dialog, the authority name can now be selected from a directory. The "Map (plan) of land management object" dialog now displays information on formed parts in the participant and sub-participant list. In the task, the mode has been enhanced to generate two new reports: an inspection report for agroforestry plantings and an inspection report for agrophytomeliorative plantings. The program analyzes map objects of specified types, reads their metrics and semantics, and populates the report according to Russian Ministry of Agriculture Order No. 225 dated April 26, 2024. The dialog now includes reading information on coordinate systems from XML extracts from the state forest register regarding forest blocks and forest inventory subdivisions. The new version is available for download in the section.

To work with the map, you can use the program or other software products of KB "Panorama". The map was led to the modernised classifier of large-scale plans of scale 1: 5 000 (map5000m). Publishing of updates in bank of spatial data is made by using the program of . Publishing contents of bank of spatial data on the geoportal and data access for downloading are implemented by means of . Free maps on the basis of OpenStreetMap data are available for download on the page "Digital maps".
22.06.2026Training Material on Visualizing Rosstat Data Using GIS "Panorama" Prepared Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared a video tutorial on creating thematic maps based on Rosstat data using a Python script within . The task is designed for the automated construction of a map of the Russian Federation with regions colored according to socio-economic indicators published on the Rosstat website in the form of summary tables. Current summary tables from the website are downloaded using the "Get" command. If data was downloaded earlier, the desired type of monitoring of the socio-economic situation of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation can be selected from the drop-down list without re-downloading. To update previously downloaded information, an "Update" button is provided. The video demonstrates the process of creating a thematic map based on Rosstat data: from selecting a statistical table and indicator to the automatic formation of color gradation and display of results on the map. It shows how a legend, color gradations, range value labels, and a map title (generated from the selected indicator and units of measurement) are automatically added to the generated map. Special attention is paid to automating the design of thematic maps and preparing cartographic materials without manual operations for setting up classifications and legends. The generated thematic map provides a visual comparison of Rosstat indicators with the territories of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. This approach is convenient for monitoring the socio-economic development of regions, preparing analytical materials, reports, presentations for government authorities, and subsequent design of cartographic products. Using the script reduces labor costs for preparing thematic maps, enhances the visual presentation of statistical data, and ensures a unified approach to thematic mapping based on official statistics. The video materials can be found in the "Video Tutorials" section.
18.06.2026Training Video on Automated Saving of Digital Maps in GIS "Panorama" Prepared Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared a video tutorial on configuring the automatic saving of digital maps in . The training material demonstrates the operation of the task, designed for creating backup copies of locally stored maps during editing. Auto-save allows users to preserve their work results and, if necessary, revert to a previous state of the map. This is particularly important during prolonged editing, digital modeling, geodetic design, urban planning, and cadastral work. The video tutorial shows how to add a map to the list of data to be saved, select a backup storage location, and configure backup creation conditions: frequency by time, number of changes, maximum number of copies per day, and storage period. When the specified conditions are met, backup runs in the background while GIS "Panorama" is running and the map is open for editing. A separate folder named after the map with a GUID identifier is created for each map in the storage. If an identifier is missing from the map's passport, it is generated automatically. When copying, all data files and map service files, including transaction logs, object lists, and other related materials, are saved. The task supports common auto-save parameters for all selected maps and individual rules for specific maps. Maps with special parameters are highlighted in green in the list. Each save is recorded in a log with the time of copy creation, the path to the source map, and the path to the saved instance. Copies whose storage period exceeds the specified number of months are automatically deleted. Using the "Auto-Save Map" task increases the reliability of working with spatial data and reduces the risk of losing editing results due to hardware or software failures. The video materials can be found in the "Video Tutorials" section.
16.06.2026Geodetic Calculations Complex Supports Generation of Agricultural Land Reports KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.5.5. The program now includes the capability to prepare new report forms related to agricultural lands. In the , the mode now supports the generation of two new reports: a survey report for agroforestry reclamation plantings and a survey report for agrophytomeliorative reclamation plantings. Surveying reclamation plantings is a mandatory procedure conducted to assess their condition, quantitative and qualitative characteristics, and to verify compliance with the approved land reclamation project. It is regulated by Order No. 225 of the Ministry of Agriculture of Russia dated April 26, 2024. The program analyzes objects of the specified type on the map, reads their metrics and semantics, and fills in the report. Remote methods using unmanned aerial systems may be used during the survey. Automatic processing of aerial photographs and generation of digital orthophotomaps can be performed using . Deciphering and determining the boundaries of agroforestry and agrophytomeliorative plantings can be performed automatically using the service. In the module, the mode provides for generating descriptions of agricultural land boundaries according to the form approved by Order No. П/0339/25 of Rosreestr dated September 19, 2025. The updated mode supports processing of boundary registry objects of the following types: populated areas, territorial zones, specially protected natural areas, zones with special conditions for territory use, agricultural lands, and forest-park green belts. The program analyzes the type of cadastral object, reads necessary information from the map, and generates a text report – a boundary description. Descriptions of boundaries for populated areas, territorial zones, specially protected natural areas, and zones with special conditions for territory use are generated according to the form approved by Order No. 650 of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia dated November 23, 2018, while descriptions for forest-park green belts follow the form approved by Order No. П/0230 of Rosreestr dated June 21, 2023. For informational support of the updated agricultural land reporting tools, necessary objects and semantics have been added to the digital classifier survey.v6. Additionally, the classifier has been modified for maintaining maps within urban planning documents to support the process of generating urban planning plans for land plots. The mode has been improved, adding a column that displays the semantic code. It is now possible to select a file from the list of available documents in the for automated filling of information regarding: land category, permitted use type of the land plot, property address, and access provision to the land plot. The list of attributes for certain categories of cadastral objects has been expanded. For cadastral quarters, the KADNUM_K semantics are additionally analyzed. For zones with special conditions for territory use, the COMM semantics have been added. Processing speed for large numbers of objects has been accelerated in the dialog. In the dialog, reading of information about coordinate systems used from XML extracts of the state forest registry regarding forest quarters and forest inventory plots has been added. Tools for maintaining the cadastral works database have been improved regarding user directory management, and tools for using it in cadastral document generation modes have been expanded. The address table structure used for filling in information about individuals and legal entities has been updated. Consideration of the address division type has been added, ensuring synchronization of address information in the cadastral works database with the address database within the state address registry structure. In the dialog, it is now possible to select the name of the authorized government body from a directory. In the "Attributes of Cadastral Object" dialog, for the permitted use of an object according to a regulatory act, a value selection from the database directory has been added. The mode has been improved regarding the generation of XML documents according to version 01. Recording of OKATO and OKTMO information in the Address element has been added. In the Area element, automatic filling of the Formula value based on program settings data has been implemented if the formula is not specified in the property object's semantics. In the dialog, the display of information about formed parts in the list of plots and their parts has been added. The updated dialog provides analysis and editing of generated electronic cadastral documents, including the map (plan) of the land management object, boundary plan, territory map-plan, technical plan, property inspection report, and others. The cross-platform dialog is divided into two parts. The left part displays the XML document content as a tree of element names and attributes. The right part displays element and attribute values, which can be edited by the user. The new version of the program is available on the website in the section.
12.06.2026GIS "Panorama" for Linux Enhanced with Tools for Control, Editing, and Automated Processing of Vector Maps KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.4.3 for "Astra Linux Special Edition", "Alt Linux", "RED OS", and Ubuntu operating systems. The new version implements modes for transaction processing and correcting the metrics of vector data objects. Tools for automatic control of user actions when placing objects on the map and entering attributes have been expanded. Settings for automated object recognition processes on terrain imagery for different recognition models have been improved. Settings for displaying formatted object characteristic labels have been supplemented. A mode for controlling and has been implemented. The dialog displays the transaction log of the selected map, which records map object changes indicating transaction number, change type, number of objects, and date/time of the operation. For complex editing processes such as merging, stitching, or processing selected objects, a single transaction record is formed in the list with a set of included operations. Users can view the change history of all participants or an individual user, filter by object number and operation type – create, delete, or update. When a specific change record is selected, additional information about object metadata (nomenclature, name, layer name) and a table of its semantics are displayed in the dialog. Additionally, the user can view the object's outline before the selected operation on the map. After selecting a specific transaction, map changes can be undone or the object can be rolled back to its previous state. A task for automated has been developed. This task is intended for batch correction of geometry, text labels, and object structure after importing data from other formats, editing maps, or controlling the quality of digital terrain descriptions. The task includes modes for processing labels, removing redundant points, working with sub-objects and duplicated objects, reconciling linear network topology, correcting the digitization direction of hydrography and contours according to relief, converting 3D metrics, recalculating heights, and changing coordinate order. Applying service procedures allows for restoring the correct metric structure of objects, eliminating the consequences of incorrect import or localization changes, reconciling point coordinates within specified tolerances, and cutting self-intersections and closed lines. In the task, in the modes for , the ability to automatically control metrics for self-intersection and sub-object inclusion has been added. Metric control is performed when writing a linear or area object to the map. When errors are detected, a pop-up error message appears in the lower right corner, and the view shifts to the point on the map containing the first error. A marker is placed at the point containing the error. The full list of errors is written to a log, which opens in the "Measurements and Control" – mode. When the "Check metric on save" checkbox is enabled in the "Vector Map Editor Parameters" dialog, automatic metric control is activated in the following modes: Create Object, Create Sub-Object, Create by Type, Digitize Linear Object, Move Object Section, Close Object, Edit Point, Delete Point, Create Point, Edit Section. Automatic metric control during outline creation and editing allows for more prompt metric correction, reducing operations required to run control for the entire vector map. In the and modes, the ability to check the specified quality of object outline digitization has been added. In the "Vector Map Editor Parameters" dialog, the "Check new segment length" checkbox enables highlighting of the current (final) segment being drawn if it does not meet vectorization parameters. If the segment length is less than the "Filtering Level" field value, the segment is highlighted with a red semi-transparent line. If the segment length is greater than the "Tracing Step" field value, the portion of the line exceeding the tracing step is highlighted with a purple semi-transparent line. Segment highlighting helps visually determine the recommended position of the next point – before purple highlighting appears. This drawing method reduces the number of redundant points and ensures the specified point density when creating and editing maps in manual vectorization modes of terrain objects. The dialog, which replaces semantic characteristic values of selected objects, has been improved. The new version allows for correcting semantics based on entered semantic values or from a dictionary (in CSV format). The dictionary line format is: "source value";"new value". It is recommended to use ";" or tab as a separator. Double quotes are recommended but not required. Search for the source value is performed in modes: Full Match, Partial Match, Match from Beginning. When selecting the "Partial Match" or "Match from Beginning" property, the "Replace partially" checkbox becomes available. When partial replacement is enabled, it searches for and replaces a specific word or combination of words within the semantic value. If the source semantic string contains words specified in several dictionary lines, this string will be processed several times until all found words are processed. The ability to select and update values for multiple codes of (numeric, text, angular, and other types) has been added. Updating semantics from a dictionary is performed only for text semantics. By default, the semantics list contains all types of semantic characteristics. In this case, only one characteristic can be updated. To update several semantic characteristics, you must select a type and highlight several lines in the semantics list. Multiple selection is performed with the left mouse button in the semantics list while holding Shift or Ctrl. The task is called from the "Map Editor - Edit Semantics" panel. The functionality of the "Create Objects" dialog in the "Map Editor" task has been expanded. The dialog allows adding, deleting, and reordering columns with object information. Table composition management is performed via the context menu, which lists object attributes such as display scale, presence of 3D view, digitization direction, and meta-object. Multi-level sorting by object attributes has been added. Sorting is added using Shift + left mouse button click on the table column header. The order and type of sorting are indicated in the headers of sorted columns, for example: "[1] Code", "[2] Name". Filtering of classifier objects is performed by displayed table columns. Available localizations, layer tree, and classes are automatically filtered based on the selected objects. Layer or class search with a drop-down list of selected values has been added. For objects with a 3D view, three-dimensional display of the object view has been added. In the task, an extended settings mechanism has been added, allowing control of image digitization parameters for each recognition model. The user can adapt processing to the characteristics of source data and requirements for the final vector map. Extended settings are structured into groups. Each neural network model has its own set of parameters affecting the result of object vectorization. When working with the task, the entered settings are saved until it is closed. For recognition models for agricultural fields, forests, and buildings, selection of the neural network subtype is available. For example, for building recognition, the following subtypes are available: "Aerial Photo (0.15 m/pixel)" and "Satellite (0.6 m/pixel)". Each subtype is trained on data with corresponding spatial resolution and provides the best recognition quality for similar types of images. If no explicit subtype is selected, it is determined automatically based on the resolution of the input data. Users can set minimum object sizes, manage tolerances when merging linear objects (roads), and configure the level of contour adjustment to rectangular form. For buildings, adjustment of contour position to the foundation has been additionally implemented, increasing the accuracy of their placement on the map. In combined recognition modes ("City" and "Comprehensive Processing"), parameters for different object types (e.g., buildings and roads) are simultaneously available, allowing coordinated adjustment of the vectorization result. When recognizing vehicles, the user can specify a confidence threshold for predictions (in percent). The threshold determines the balance between recognition completeness and the number of false positives. As a result, extended settings allow transitioning from a fixed processing mode to a manageable process, where the user can quickly select optimal vectorization parameters for a specific territory and data type. Display of has been improved. In the new program version, capabilities for generating label text and vector signs based on object semantic values have been expanded. For labels containing references to semantics, support for output formatting of numeric values with a specified number of digits, zero-padding on the left, and rounding of real numbers has been added. This allows for uniform display of numerical object characteristics on the map, such as angle values, numbers, or other code designations, without changing the original semantic data. When importing vector terrain data in , support for references from the KML file to external KML files, which may be packed into a common KMZ archive or specified as links (URLs) to external resources, has been added. In data import tasks from text files and export tasks, support for the XLSX spreadsheet format has been added. GIS "Panorama" is a universal domestic geographic information system. The program is designed for accumulation, storage, automated processing, and display of data, calculation results, and forecasts with geospatial reference. GIS "Panorama" includes tools for displaying and processing vector, raster, and matrix maps. The application provides users with tools for solving specialized tasks such as modeling the movement of special objects against a 3D model background, predicting consequences of emergencies at hazardous facilities, monitoring aircraft movement, performing geodetic and topographic work, processing data from GPS/GLONASS navigation devices, printing displayed spatial data on various output devices, and many others. The new version of the program is available for download in the section.
11.06.2026Map of the Administrative-Territorial Division of the Russian Federation Updated on the "Bank of Spatial Data" Geoportal Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared and placed on the geoportal a map of the Administrative-Territorial Division of the Russian Federation, including new regions. The map contains territories of federal districts, constituent entities of the Russian Federation, administrative okrugs, administrative districts, inter-settlement territories, and rural and urban settlements. The municipal composition of Russian regions has been updated, as of 2026. OKATO, OKTMO, and GAR codes correspond to Rosstat and FIAS data. The population of all regions has been updated as of January 1, 2025. The map can be used for analyzing and assessing the territory of the Russian Federation and its subjects, assessing boundary lengths, and as a base for creating thematic and special maps. The map is formed from OpenStreetMap data. The program or other KB "Panorama" software products can be used to work with the map. The map has been converted to the modernized classifier for large-scale plans at scale 1:5,000 (map5000m) and saved as a packed project (MPTZ). The MPTZ project format includes a digital map of the region (country, federal subject, administrative district), a map of the administrative-territorial division of the region, and a digital classifier. Updates were placed in the spatial data bank using the program. Publication of the spatial data bank contents on the geoportal and access to data for downloading are implemented using . Free maps based on OpenStreetMap data are available for download on the "Digital Maps" page.
09.06.2026Training video material prepared on updating digital maps using the Panorama Vision service Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared a video tutorial on automated updating of digital maps using the service within . The training material demonstrates a comparison of objects from the original digital map with objects recognized on a new satellite or aerial photograph. The video material introduces users to the functionality of the task and shows the complete data processing cycle – from selecting the source image and analysis area to generating an updated vector map. The selected image area is sent to the Panorama Vision service, where a neural network model performs object recognition and vectorization. The recognition of objects of the "Residential buildings" class is considered as an example. The neural network model generates building contours, which are then automatically compared with objects from the original digital map. Based on the analysis results, objects are color-coded depending on the identified changes and the degree of correspondence with the reference data. This allows for quickly identifying buildings missing from the map, as well as objects with changed contours. The video tutorial demonstrates the automatic placement of labels on the map and the application of additional processing parameters to improve the accuracy of the generated geometry. In particular, the setting of the maximum distance between points of compared objects is discussed. The user can adjust processing parameters considering the terrain characteristics, the quality of the source image, and the requirements for the result. The presented solutions can be applied in the creation and updating of digital city plans, execution of urban planning and cadastral works, territory monitoring, assessment of emergency consequences, as well as in solving defense and security tasks. Using the service reduces labor costs for image processing, decreases the amount of manual data entry, and increases the completeness and reliability of cartographic information. The application of Panorama Vision as part of GIS "Panorama" enables a transition from traditional manual vectorization to intelligent spatial data processing. Objects recognized in the image are automatically converted into a digital terrain model, which can be supplemented with semantic characteristics and address information. The video material is available in the "Video tutorials" section.
05.06.2026Data input control expanded in GIS "Operator" for the preparation of topographic and special maps KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.5.5. In the new version, tools for automatic control of specialist actions when placing objects on the map and entering attributes have been improved. Settings for the design of object characteristic labels have been expanded. Capabilities for updating semantic characteristics and configuring object creation parameters have been enhanced. The task has been improved. In the modes for , the ability for automatic metric control for self-intersection and inclusion of sub-objects has been added. The control is performed when writing a linear or area object to the map. If errors are detected, a pop-up message appears, a transition to the point with the first error is performed, and a marker is placed. The complete list of errors is written to a log, which opens in the mode. By checking the "Check metric on save" checkbox in the "Vector Map Editor Parameters" dialog, automatic metric control is activated in object creation and editing modes. This allows for metric correction more quickly, reducing the need to run control for the entire map. The mode has been updated. Added the ability to check the quality of object contour digitization. In the "Vector Map Editor Parameters" dialog, the "Check new segment length" checkbox enables highlighting of a drawn segment if it does not meet the vectorization parameters. If the segment length is less than the "Filter level" field value, it is highlighted with a red semi-transparent line. If the segment length is greater than the "Tracing step" field value, the portion of the line exceeding the tracing step is highlighted with a purple semi-transparent line. Segment highlighting helps visually determine the recommended position of the next point – until purple highlighting appears. This method of drawing allows reducing the number of unnecessary points, as well as ensuring a given point density during manual vectorization of terrain objects. The updated mode allows adding, deleting, and changing the order of columns with object information. Managing the table composition is done using the context menu, which lists object attributes (display scale, presence of 3D view, digitization direction, meta-object). Multi-level has been added using the Shift key combined with clicking on a column header. The order and type of sorting are indicated in the headers of sorted columns, for example: "[1] Code", "[2] Name". Filtering of classifier objects is performed based on the displayed table columns. Available localizations, the layer tree, and classes are automatically filtered based on the selected objects. Layer or class search has been added with a dropdown list of selected values. For objects having a 3D view, three-dimensional display has been added. The dialog, which replaces the values of semantic characteristics of selected objects, has been improved. The new version allows adjusting semantic characteristics based on entered values or using a dictionary (in CSV format). The dictionary string format is: "original value";"new value". It is recommended to use ";" or a tab as the delimiter. Double quotes are recommended but not required. The search for the original value is performed in modes: Exact match, Partial match, Match from beginning. When selecting the "Partial match" or "Match from beginning" property, a "Replace partially" checkbox is available. When partial replacement is enabled, the search and replacement of a specific word or word combination within the semantic value is performed. If the text of the original semantic string contains words specified in several dictionary lines, that string will be processed several times – until all found words have been processed. Added the ability to select and update values for several codes of the (numeric, text, angular, and other types). Dictionary-based semantic update is performed only for text semantics. By default, the semantics list contains all types of semantic characteristics. In this case, only one characteristic can be updated. To update multiple semantic characteristics, you need to select a type and highlight several lines in the semantics list. Selecting multiple semantics is done with the left mouse button in the semantics list while holding the Shift or Ctrl key. The task is called from the "Map Editor - Edit Semantics" panel. The display of has been improved. Text editing is performed in the map editor's mode or in the "Object Properties" dialog under the "Metric" tab. Usually, the field for entering label text contains the text itself. However, this text is not linked to the specific semantics of the object. Therefore, after editing the object's semantics, the label text on the map may differ from the text in the semantics. To eliminate contradictions between the text in the metric and the semantics (in the "Metric" tab), a reference to the semantic value is entered into the text entry field, for example, to semantics with code 9 (Proper name): "#9". In the new version of the program, extended formatting has been added – after the semantic code of a numeric type, the label output format "%0N.n" or "%N.n" can be specified, where "N" is the total number of characters of the number, including "." and "-" signs. The "0" character after the "%" sign indicates left padding with zeros if the integer part of the number occupies fewer characters than specified by parameter "N". This notation is typically used for displaying angle values – format "#321%03": for semantics with code "321" with a value of "7", the label "007" will be displayed on the map, and with a value of "0" – "000". The parameter "n" indicates the number of digits after the decimal point for a real number. If parameter "n" is not specified, the value is rounded to an integer. The new formatting rules can be applied to labels and that have labels referencing semantics. When importing vector terrain data in , support has been added for links from the KML file to external KML files, which can be packaged into a common KMZ archive or specified as links (URLs) to external resources. The new version of the program is available for download in the Downloads section.
03.06.2026Use of Artificial Intelligence for Hydrological Analysis in GIS "Panorama" Demonstrated in a New Video Tutorial Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared an educational video for GIS professionals, showing how to combine the Python language, the Cursor development environment, and the capabilities of artificial intelligence to create custom spatial data processing scripts in . The lesson is dedicated to hydrological analysis with automated placement of cross-section points along the river thalweg. To construct a breakthrough wave graph in the event of a dam failure at a hydraulic structure, calculations of wave parameters at cross-section points are performed. Determining the location of these cross-section points is currently done using an expert method with visual analysis of the map. Using standard GIS tools, such operations amount to a chain of repetitive actions: measuring lengths and heights, placing points, calculating river parameters at the cross-section, and transferring values to the cross-section attributes. Automating this stage significantly reduces the time needed to prepare initial data for calculations and eliminates manual entry errors. The video tutorial proposes the following approach: a specialist formulates a task as a detailed prompt, and an AI agent in Cursor, relying on the open repository , prepares the basis of a Python script using MAPAPI calls. The resulting script is connected to GIS "Panorama" and executed on a prepared project that includes the hydraulic structure dam, the river thalweg downstream of the dam, and a height matrix in the potential flood zone. The analyzed example demonstrates the advantage of automating script writing specifically for spatial analysis. The script places cross-section points along the thalweg, starting from the hydraulic structure dam with a specified step and at a specified distance. For each point, the width of the normal flow is calculated; using the height matrix, elevations of equal heights are determined to the left and right of the thalweg, multiples of the contour interval; the shape of the river floodplain and the distance between height marks are calculated, and the floodplain width is limited to an acceptable value if necessary. The operator only sets the step between cross-section points and the contour interval step in a dialog – the rest is performed according to uniform rules, making the calculations reproducible and relieving the GIS specialist of the bulk of the routine work. Instead of manually assembling code, one can more quickly proceed to verifying the analysis logic, geometric correctness, and compliance of the result with project requirements. The proposed methodology can serve as a convenient starting point for mastering Python in general and the MAPAPI interface for applied spatial data processing. The results of determining cross-section points are used in the mode within the "Hydrological Tasks Complex". The complex is oriented towards supporting the full cycle of work with hydrological information within the GIS "Panorama" technology suite and helps consolidate standard calculations and data preparation in a single application environment. Combined with the ability to develop and connect custom Python scripts, including the use of AI in their preparation, such a complex expands the specialist's toolkit: from standardized hydrological operations to custom algorithms for a specific water body or territory. You can view the video tutorial in the "Video Tutorials" section.
01.06.2026Specialists of KB "Panorama" Participated in the "Mastor" Forum in Saransk and Discussed Issues of Sustainable Development of the Land and Property Sector Leading experts in the field of land and property relations from 50 constituent entities of Russia became participants in the . The event took place in Saransk on May 28 and 29, with the government of the Republic of Mordovia acting as the organizer. In addition to representatives of federal and regional authorities, business, and science from Russia, the key industry event was attended by guests from Belarus, Oman, Bahrain, Egypt, and Azerbaijan. Forum participants discussed current issues of land and property relations, best practices, and legislative initiatives in the field of land use. Representatives of KB "Panorama" presented a report on the topic , emphasizing that the land and property sector should help develop the region and attract investment. It was noted that in modern conditions, a territory competes not only based on natural resources, transport and engineering infrastructure but also on the quality of its digital description. An investor makes decisions based on comprehensive information about land plots, real estate objects, engineering networks, transport accessibility, urban planning constraints, and development prospects. The Federal Fund of Spatial Data, the Unified State Register of Real Estate (EGRN), and the National System of Spatial Data form a unified information base for territory management, development planning, and increasing the investment attractiveness of regions. Special attention in the report was given to the application of artificial intelligence technologies, computer vision, and spatial analytics. KB "Panorama" solutions, including Professional , , , and , allow automating the creation and updating of maps, identifying unregistered real estate objects, analyzing actual land use, assessing transport accessibility, and identifying promising sites for business. The integration of GIS with predictive models and analytical services turns spatial data into a practical tool for making managerial decisions. As a result, high-quality geodata become the foundation of the territory's digital economy, help increase the transparency of property relations, increase budget revenues, and accelerate the implementation of investment projects. Photo materials were provided by the event organizers.
28.05.2026Application of Artificial Intelligence for Automating the Design of Aeronautical Maneuvers in GIS "Panorama" Presented in a New Video Tutorial Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared an educational video on the application of artificial intelligence, the Python language, and for automating spatial data analysis. The video tutorial uses a practical example to show the automation of designing an AF maneuver according to ARINC Specification 424-21. ARINC is one of the key families of standards used in describing and exchanging aeronautical information for aviation systems. This example examines the construction of an arc by center, end point, and start direction angle. This demonstrates the connection between the formal requirements of the standard, geometric calculations, and their implementation in a digital map. The video tutorial demonstrates how modern AI tools help create custom scripts for GIS "Panorama". The user formulates a task in natural language, and the agent analyzes materials from the open repository and prepares a Python script using MAPAPI capabilities. This approach lowers the barrier to entry into programming, accelerates the learning of applied automation, and helps the GIS specialist focus on the logic of spatial analysis, result control, and the requirements of a specific project. The lesson shows the complete workflow: preparing a detailed prompt, generating the script, connecting it to GIS "Panorama", selecting source objects on the map, entering the angle parameter, and checking the constructed arc against the reference result. This example illustrates that automating script writing is useful not only for reducing manual operations but also for increasing the reproducibility of calculations, especially when geometric constructions need to be performed repeatedly according to specified rules. The practical value of this approach is particularly noticeable when working with aeronautical data, where precision, formalized object description, and compliance with industry requirements are important. The is designed for maintaining, analyzing, and generating aeronautical data in digital form. Combined with GIS "Panorama", Python, and artificial intelligence tools, it allows specialists to more effectively solve tasks related to preparing aeronautical information, verifying spatial constructions, and developing their own application-specific data processing scenarios. You can view the new video material in the "Video Tutorials" section.
26.05.2026The Central Bank and Remote Sensing Data Bank ensures prompt acquisition of information on geodetic points and survey materials KB "Panorama" has developed a version 9.7.0. In the new version, the ability to mass export survey reports for geodetic points, destruction acts, and justifications for the impossibility of surveying has been added. The implemented functionality allows quickly obtaining a complete list of documents for selected geodetic points, significantly reducing data preparation time. An export protocol has been added, ensuring timely identification of missing or incorrect data for their subsequent updating and correction. The innovations increase the efficiency of interaction between federal and regional spatial data funds and contribute to further automation of data processing processes. A separate registry of data producer organizations is maintained. A unified list of organizations is used when maintaining the metadata database and placing materials in the storage. This makes it easy to find data from specific producers. The operation of the complex has been optimized in the presence of erroneous configuration parameters. The calculation of the volume of stored data during export has been accelerated. Work with the spatial data availability schematic map has been improved. Data security is ensured by differentiating access rights based on the security tools included in the operating system. Basic authentication, digest authentication, system authentication (via web server tools), and domain authentication (Kerberos or ActiveDirectory) are supported. Additional security is ensured by using end-to-end authentication when working with the database. Connection to the database occurs with the rights of the user working with the system. The complex is adapted to work on a wide range of operating systems (Astra Linux SE, Ubuntu, RED OS, MS Windows, and others) and architectures (Intel, Elbrus, Baikal). The program is registered in the Russian software registry under number 1862. The Digital Maps and Remote Sensing Data Bank is the basis for building spatial data infrastructure at the federal, regional, and municipal levels, and in corporate information systems. Within a unified geoinformation space, the Digital Maps and Remote Sensing Data Bank implements the collection, storage, quality control, search, and issuance of spatial data in exchange formats. Spatial data selected using the program can be placed for multi-user access on the and published according to international OGC standards WFS, WFS-T, WMS, WMTS, WCS on the application server. Users can access data both from a thin client (using ) and from desktop applications (, ). The Digital Maps and Remote Sensing Data Bank enables the construction of a cloud-based spatial data repository, providing access to this data, and automated generation and updating of geocoverages. The current state of spatial data is displayed using map-schemes maintained for each type of stored data: vector maps, remote sensing data, elevation matrices, and terrain models. It ensures remote placement of spatial data sets into file storage, versioning of stored sets, updating data availability map-schemes, automated collection and generation of metadata, and generation and updating of geocoverages. Automated collection and generation of metadata is performed according to standards ISO 19115:2003, Geographic information - Metadata, and ISO/TS 19139, Geographic information - Metadata - XML schema implementation. Reduced-size copies of data images are automatically generated, and file checksums and data set completeness are checked. Spatial data is placed into file storage with integrity verification and control of data structure and content. Work results are logged and entered into the metadata database. Automatic backup of metadata and the spatial data repository with integrity control and data recovery is provided. A multilingual interface is supported. The "Spatial Data Bank" portal demonstrates the capabilities for organizing the storage, accounting, and issuance of vector maps, remote sensing data, elevation matrices, and terrain models. The portal contains vector maps in SXF format, generated from open sources (OpenStreetMap, VMap0). The spatial data includes maps of subjects of the Russian Federation, countries, and cities near and far abroad. A total of over 450 vector maps and over 6,700 matrix datasets with a total volume of over 250 GB. KB "Panorama" specialists weekly update and maintain the information composition on the portal.

Free maps on the basis of OpenStreetMap data are available for download on the page "Digital maps".
21.05.2026GIS Server optimizes the load on geodata storages and expands user action monitoring capabilities KB "Panorama" has developed version 11.3.3. The new version provides simultaneous display and editing of an arbitrary number of spatial database tables by many users through a limited number of connections to the DBMS. The tools for auditing GIS Server client actions related to modifying spatial objects in the database have been expanded. The program implements a connection limit for each spatial database on the GIS Server side. The DBMS server consumes computing resources for each connection, therefore the total number of simultaneous connections to databases is limited. In GIS Server, connections to databases are grouped into pools. The server administrator can now set the "pool size" – the maximum number of connections grouped together and shared among data processing threads. The use of pools allows performing multi-threaded work with many spatial database tables without being limited by the number of available connections on the DBMS side. For each database, you can set its own connection pool size, which helps distribute the load and prevents overloading the DBMS server. The program includes functionality that allows auditing GIS Server client actions for editing objects on the spatial database side. Database developers have the ability to implement data change auditing in spatial tables based on trigger logic, receiving information about the GIS Server client account as the author of those changes. Information about the author of data changes in this case will be in the same format as displayed by the monitoring and logging tools of the GIS Server itself: "user@host kernel version", for example, "User1@UserPC v.15.5.5". This technology is described in more detail in the . Current versions of GIS Server for operating systems Astra Linux, Alt SP, RED OS, Ubuntu, and MS Windows are available in the section.
19.05.2026Specialists of KB "Panorama" Took Part in the "Russia – Islamic World: KazanForum" Forum The XVII International Economic Forum was held in Kazan from May 12 to 17, 2026. In 2023, it gained federal status, becoming the main platform for interaction between Russia and the countries of the Islamic world. As part of the forum, representatives of KB "Panorama" visited the international cooperation exhibition and took part in the business program. "KazanForum 2026" was attended by representatives from 103 countries, and the forum's business program included 149 events. At the forum, organized with the support of the Ministry of Construction of Russia and the International Association for Territorial Development, our specialists presented a report on . International practice demonstrates a transition from spot development to integrated territorial development, implementing the integration of the transport framework, engineering infrastructure, housing, and social facilities into a single environment. The role of digital technologies and geoinformation solutions in urban planning, interdepartmental interaction, construction, and operation of real estate properties is increasing. State information systems have become an integral part of territorial management. The Spatial Data Portal integrates layers of sectoral information from various federal and regional information systems. Considering the concentration of data and services on federal resources, the role and place of GIS tools used by cadastral engineers, designers, architects, urban planners, and other specialists from state structures and private organizations are changing. At the "Business Breakfast for Investors from the Ministry of Construction and Housing and Communal Services of the Russian Federation", employees of KB "Panorama" held a number of bilateral meetings with representatives of Oman, Qatar, Kyrgyzstan, and Russian companies, where they discussed the use of geoinformation technologies in territorial development and specific steps for cooperation. Participation in "KazanForum 2026" helps specialists compare global trends and investment realities regarding the use of spatial data and geoinformation technologies. During a period of significant technological progress and digitalization, the role of personal contacts increases, and "KazanForum 2026" is a platform that allows looking each other in the eye, speaking directly, and discussing projects. KB "Panorama" expresses its gratitude to Vasil Maratovich Mazitov, Chairman of the Association "MART", for organizing the stay of the KB "Panorama" delegation at "KazanForum 2026". were provided by the event organizers.
18.05.2026Application of Artificial Intelligence for Automating Problem Solving in a Linear Coordinate System Demonstrated in a New Video Tutorial Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared an educational video material demonstrating a practical approach to creating custom scripts for spatial data processing using artificial intelligence. The video tutorial is dedicated to how to use modern AI tools to accelerate Python development and solve applied problems in the environment, without spending much time on manual code preparation from scratch. The educational material is based on a real production task: automatic placement of pickets along a pipeline in the object's linear coordinate system. The (LCS) is a system for measuring linear coordinates along an object's contour from the first point of the object to a given point. This measurement is performed in meters along the axis, sequentially passing through all contours of the linear object from the first point of the first contour's metric. The LCS is formed relative to calibration points located along the object's contour, with the axis contours possibly adjoining each other or located with gaps. The calibration points provide the transition from plane rectangular coordinates X, Y to the linear coordinate M along the object and back. The video tutorial analyzes a scenario in which, based on a selected point object and one or more linear objects, new points are formed every kilometer along the LCS, rather than along the geographic length of the line on the map. This example clearly shows how automating script writing helps perform spatial analysis more accurately, faster, and in compliance with specified rules for metric and semantic formation. Artificial intelligence is becoming a working tool for preparing scripts based on user requests, relying on materials from the open repository. For GIS specialists, this means a faster transition from problem statement to a ready-made data processing scenario, lowering the entry barrier to programming, and the ability to focus not on technical routine, but on checking analysis logic and interpreting results. This approach can serve as a convenient starting point for mastering Python and the MAPAPI interface when solving spatial data processing problems. You can view the video material in the section.
15.05.2026A New Tool for Installing and Updating KB "Panorama" Server Products Based on Docker Registry Has Been Prepared Specialists of KB "Panorama" have deployed a centralized Docker Registry container . The new infrastructure allows development, testing, and operations teams to work with a single internal repository of Docker images. This makes it possible to accelerate application build, delivery, and deployment processes. The repository contains of the products: , , и . Using a private Docker Registry helps solve several problems at once. First of all, it is centralized storage of container images: all current versions of services are now in one secure location and accessible to internal teams. This reduces dependence on external public repositories and increases the stability of development and release processes. In addition, the internal Docker Registry provides version control and transparency of software delivery. Developers can store verified and approved images, use common tags, revert to previous versions, and maintain reproducibility of environments. Another important advantage is security. Placing the Registry inside the corporate perimeter simplifies access control, auditing of image usage, and compliance with internal requirements for storing and distributing software components. Having a dedicated repository increases the performance and convenience of CI/CD processes. Build and delivery systems get fast access to local images, which reduces publication and deployment time for services. Using a private Docker Registry is a step towards a more manageable, secure, and sustainable container infrastructure for the company, which will accelerate the release of new product versions and increase the reliability of internal services. Access to the Docker Registry container repository can be obtained via the .

13.05.2026Educational material on automatic vehicle recognition using the "Panorama Vision" service has been prepared Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared a video tutorial demonstrating the capabilities of vehicle recognition using the task within . Using remote sensing data as an example, the full cycle of material processing is shown: from selecting the source image to obtaining ready-made vector objects. The service allows for automatically detecting vehicles on satellite images, aerial photographs, and data obtained from unmanned aerial vehicles. Processing is performed using , where neural network models carry out analysis, segmentation, and classification of objects. A key element of the video is the demonstration of the specialized "Vehicles" model. It enables the recognition of various types of objects: cars and trucks, special equipment, aircraft, and marine vessels. The model's algorithms allow for accurately determining the position of objects and correctly separating them even in dense placement conditions - in parking lots, industrial zones, airfields, and port terminals. The processing results are automatically formed as vector objects linked to a digital classifier, allowing them to be immediately used in geographic information systems for analysis and further work. The user receives not just an image with markings, but structured spatial data suitable for accounting, monitoring, and decision-making. The technology can be applied in a wide range of tasks: monitoring transport infrastructure and road congestion, analyzing logistics flows, controlling the activities of ports and airfields, assessing equipment usage at industrial and construction sites, as well as solving tasks in the field of security and operational situation control. The use of "Panorama Vision" within GIS "Panorama" significantly speeds up image processing, reduces the labor intensity of manual vectorization, and improves the accuracy of object detection. As a result, the user receives up-to-date and detailed information about transport activity in the area in the shortest possible time. You can familiarize yourself with the video material in the "Video tutorials" section.
11.05.2026GIS WebService SE supports publication of ultra-large height matrices according to the OGC WCS standard KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.15.3. The new version of the service adds support for publishing large-volume height matrices occupying several terabytes of disk space. The data is provided to end users according to the OGC WCS standard in the form of tiles or upon requests for a given territory. A height matrix for the entire globe, GEBCO with a resolution of 15 seconds (about 463 m/pixel), has been published on the demonstration GIS WebService SE service. GEBCO contains ocean bathymetry data, including depths, seabed topography and names of underwater objects, as well as information on land and ice surface heights. The data is published as MPT projects consisting of multiple matrices. This approach allows for efficiently working with large sets of spatial data and providing them to users via a web service without needing to store the entire volume of information locally. The task of connecting geoportals via the OGC WCS protocol in GIS "Panorama" has been improved. In the new version, the display of height matrices has been significantly accelerated. Visualization is performed taking into account the current map scale: tiles corresponding to the current zoom level are requested from the server to speed up rendering. At the same time, for analytical operations — constructing terrain profiles, querying information at a point, and other calculations — data of the base resolution is always used. For example, for the GEBCO matrix, the original resolution of 463 m/pixel is used, ensuring calculation accuracy when working with digital surface models. GIS WebService SE supports all international standards (OGC WFS, WFS-T, WMS, WMTS, WCS, WPS), through which spatial data is transmitted and displayed. The program implements the ability to issue tiles in any user or local coordinate system. The service supports OpenAPI 3.0 specification and RESTAPI methods. The application is implemented on Windows and Linux platforms and is compatible with Apache, IIS, and nginx web servers. The new version of the program and documentation are available on the website in the section.
10.05.2026GIS WebServer SE updates editing tools and tools for working with cartographic data KB "Panorama" has developed version 7.4.0 for operating systems Astra Linux, CentOS, Ubuntu, MS Windows. The new version improves basic tools for working with maps: the map editor, tools for working with DBM layers, and management of cartographic basemaps. The "Editor" component has been significantly redesigned. The number of actions required to create and edit map objects has been reduced. In the "Object Creation" mode, the legend interface has been expanded: views in the form of a tree and tiles have been added. The ability to edit metric and attribute information of an object in parallel has been implemented. The interface of the "Attribute Table" component (working with DBM layers) has been updated and its functionality expanded. Quick filters by columns and data export to CSV format have been implemented in the table. Interaction with the map has been improved: row filtering by selected objects, highlighting related objects, configuring the composition of displayed data, and automatic positioning on the selected object have been added. Support for related datasets has been implemented. New settings have been added to the user interface: button size selection and the ability to collapse the sidebar. Control over user file loading has been implemented. The administration module has an updated authorization mechanism through the GISWebServiceSE service, which provides more flexible configuration of access rights to cartographic data. GIS WebServer SE is used in building closed corporate systems ensuring the protection of data classified as state secrets or commercial secrets. GIS WebServer SE is implemented using the toolkit, which can be used in development tools using JavaScript and TypeScript. Based on GIS WebServer SE and other KB "Panorama" server products, the Regional has been implemented. RGIS RO is a specialized multifunctional geoportal whose interactive capabilities provide access to reliable information about objects of various categories. RGIS RO is accessible to a wide range of users – government authorities, citizens, organizations, including potential investors and private companies. The Regional GIS of the Ryazan Region aids in decision-making on various aspects of socio-economic development. The new version of the program is available on the website in the section.
08.05.2026GIS Constructor expands tools for processing special maps and displaying geoportals KB "Panorama" has developed for Qt Designer SE version 15.1.2 for OS "Astra Linux Special Edition", OS "Alt Linux", RED OS, Ubuntu, and MS Windows. The new version supplements the protocols and data formats of connected geoportals. For working with special maps (aeronautical and marine navigation), the "Metaobjects" object category has been introduced, which allows creating links for extended descriptions of basic objects and provides convenient navigation and editing through selection dialogs. New cross-platform dialogs for printing maps, searching and highlighting map objects, and changing the composition of displayed map objects have been implemented in the toolkit. A new method for distributing GIS applications, independent of the graphic framework used, has been developed. Support for geoportals with tiles in pbf/gpkg format, which contain vector information, semantics (attributes), and metadata for various display zoom levels, has been added. A multi-scale map is created for layers from such geoportals. The task automatically assigns styles in the form of graphic primitives for each type of object. Vector maps can be opened in one project together with vector maps, remote sensing data, databases, and geoportals operating under other protocols. The new "Metaobjects" object category can contain sets of attributes that supplement the description of basic objects of a special map. Basic objects can contain links to metaobjects (object UID), which can be used to display additional information about the object. For example, on an aeronautical map, route segments can link to available radio navigation services (Navaid), which in turn can link to radio navigation equipment (NavaidEquipment), and so on. The NavaidEquipment metaobject may not have coordinates since it supplements the Navaid object with attributes. When viewing attributes in the "Select Objects" dialog, the "Semantics" and "Metaobjects" tabs will display a list of links to objects and metaobjects. Double-clicking a link will open another "Select Object" dialog with a full description of the linked object or metaobject. From there, you can open the next object or metaobject. In the dialog, you can change attribute or coordinate descriptions, modify links, or other object properties. You can set an object's property to "Metaobject" or "Metaobject without metrics" and specify the list of allowed links in the "Classifier Editor" task. By default, metaobjects are not displayed and do not participate in search. To enable display and search in the "Display Composition" or "Search Objects" dialogs, instead of the "Do not select metaobjects" property, you need to select "Select all objects" or "Select metaobjects". The new cross-platform print dialog is included, designed for comprehensive preparation of cartographic materials for output. The dialog provides selection of the print area, setting the required scale, configuring page layout of sheets and print output parameters, as well as generating PDF and PostScript files. Extended color representation modes are supported, including RGB, CMYK, and color separation, allowing the new tool to be used both for operational printing of working materials and for preparing cartographic products for printing. The implementation of a unified print dialog increases ease of use, reduces time for setting output parameters, and expands the possibilities for preparing materials for publication and replication. A new cross-platform "Search and Highlight Map Objects" dialog and a "Change Composition of Displayed Map Objects" dialog, designed for working with vector maps within an open document, have been implemented. The updated tools provide flexible configuration of search, selection, and display conditions for objects by layers, classes, localization, types, nomenclature sheets, unique numbers, semantic characteristics, formulas, and spatial measurements. Support is provided for saving selection parameters in models, applying settings to maps with the same classifier, selecting only visible or only graphic objects, disabling objects invisible at the base scale, and displaying clusters of point symbols. New capabilities increase the convenience of thematic analysis, speed up the preparation of working datasets, and provide more efficient configuration of map composition for various user tasks. In GIS Constructor for Linux, a new application signing functionality has been implemented, which does not depend on the graphical framework of the GIS application being developed. Signing is performed by the gis-activator utility included in the GIS Constructor Free version and is applied to the executable module of the program. Based on the procedure results, an electronic signature file is generated next to the application, which is included in the delivery package. This allows distributing applications developed on the basis of GIS Constructor Free and using any convenient graphical framework for development (e.g., Qt, GTK, or wxWidgets). GIS Constructor is adapted to work on a wide range of operating systems (Astra Linux Special Edition, RED OS, Alt Linux, Ubuntu, Windows, Elbrus, QNX) and architectures (Intel, ARM, Elbrus). The toolkit includes components for visual design of GIS applications and libraries of the cross-platform multi-threaded GIS core. GIS Constructor provides a cross-platform MAPAPI interface, allowing the programmer to develop in an operating system convenient for them. The developer can release GIS applications for a set of operating systems by simple assembly with minimal changes to the program's source code. The new version of the program is available for download in the section.
07.05.2026GIS "Panorama" expands capabilities for assessing consequences of man-made and natural emergencies KB "Panorama" has developed the . This complex is designed for automated predictive modeling and assessment of potential consequences of emergency situations (ES) according to various scenarios. These include control of air object detection and electronic warfare (EW) means, flood calculation using the cross-section method, large-scale forest fires, dam break wave modeling on hydraulic structures, and others. Additionally, the complex can model accidents at chemically, radiological, biologically, explosively hazardous objects, and hydraulic structures. The component for controlling air object detection and EW means is designed for optimal placement of reconnaissance assets in a given positional area, carrying out visual or radar reconnaissance of low-altitude air objects and electronic warfare means. The operation of the component is based on mathematical modeling of radio wave propagation and geometric visibility analysis. When modeling coverage zones, digital terrain maps are used together with a height matrix. Consideration of the terrain relief allows predicting "dead zones". This is critical for detecting low-altitude targets that may use terrain folds, riverbeds, or forests for covert approach. The complex includes a database of Russian radars, as well as electronic warfare systems (Polyana, MGLA–04m, Proyed-S, Gipnoz-103, Volna 2, Volna 3, Volna-Khrust 360, GBSH 950, GBSH 950+), aimed at suppressing control channels of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), suppressing satellite navigation (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Beidou), and spoofing satellite coordinates to disorient UAVs. The composition of technical means and a description of their main characteristics are stored in the database and can be supplemented by users. The "Emergency Prediction" component allows for the construction and analysis of mathematical models of emergency situations at potentially dangerous facilities. The complex is implemented as an application task intended for operation in . Activation of the mode is performed from the menu item "Tasks – Run applications". Using the obtained spatial results of ES modeling, a number of analytical operations can be performed using standard GIS "Panorama" tools. For example, determine structures (population, personnel) that fell into the affected area, calculate the distance of objects from the accident zone, calculate evacuation routes or access routes for special equipment using a road graph, and others. It is possible to save ES modeling results for their subsequent repeated use. Furthermore, it is possible to use initial data from already saved models when building a new ES model. This allows for a more detailed assessment of the development of a possible accident situation by forming a set of models of this situation, changing just one or several variable factors: for example, wind direction or time from the start of the accident. The current version of the Complex is available for download in the Download section.
06.05.2026"Agronomic Tasks Complex" updates tools for monitoring agricultural lands KB "Panorama" has developed the "Agronomic Tasks Complex" version 6.13.5 for . The new version of the complex improves the means of information support for the state accounting of fertility indicators of agricultural lands. Accounting for fertility indicators includes the collection and synthesis of results from soil, geobotanical, and other surveys of agricultural lands. The composition of fertility indicators is established by Order No. 150 of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation dated May 4, 2010. In accordance with the requirements of this order, the digital classifier agro10t.rsc has been implemented, which is used by government authorities, FSBI "Russian Agricultural Center", agrochemical service enterprises, agricultural producers, and other interested individuals and organizations. The Russian Ministry of Agriculture adjusted the procedure for state accounting of agricultural land fertility indicators by Order No. 729 dated December 2, 2020 "On Amendments to Order No. 150 of the Russian Ministry of Agriculture dated May 4, 2010". In accordance with the updated list of indicators, changes have been made to the agro10t.rsc classifier, including the following groups: a) general indicators; b) physical and chemical indicators; c) soil pollution indicators; d) indicators of negative processes; e) additional indicators for soils of unused lands; f) biological activity; g) indicators of the geobotanical state of hayfields and pasture soils; h) indicators of the phytosanitary state of soils. For user convenience, the list of fertility indicators, in addition to mandatory items, includes an expanded composition of recorded information. Basic and additional information is used during the operation of agricultural lands to record the results of field observations and studies. The mode is intended for entering, viewing, and editing information, in which indicators are grouped into: general indicators, physical conditions, agrochemical composition, crop rotation, phytosanitary condition. The expanded set of indicators is maintained in the soil fertility database. To include current monitoring results in the state register of agricultural lands, the set of indicators must correspond to the established list. The semantics of agricultural land map objects created based on the agro10t.rsc classifier are intended for this purpose. The values of fertility indicators of agricultural lands entered into the soil fertility database are automatically synchronized with the semantics of agricultural land map objects according to the established composition. The mode is intended for viewing the semantics values of agricultural land contours. To transfer monitoring information to the state register of agricultural lands, data is exported into the established format. The program supports all popular data formats, including: SXF, GML, GeoJSON, SHP, and others. The new version of the Agronomic Tasks Complex is available for download in the Download section.
04.05.2026Bank of spatial data has been supplemented with a map of the Republic of Kiribati Geoportal has been supplemented with a map of the Republic of Kiribati, formed according to OpenStreetMap data. To work with the map, you can use the program or other software products of KB "Panorama". The map was led to the modernised classifier of large-scale plans of scale 1: 5 000 (map5000m). Publishing of updates in bank of spatial data is made by using the program of . Publishing contents of bank of spatial data on the geoportal and data access for downloading are implemented by means of . Free maps on the basis of OpenStreetMap data are available for download on the page "Digital maps".
02.05.2026Application of artificial intelligence and Python for solving topological problems in GIS "Panorama" presented in a new video tutorial Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared an educational video material dedicated to the application of artificial intelligence technologies for automating spatial data processing in GIS "Panorama". The video tutorial is aimed at students of MIIGAiK, as well as practicing specialists working with engineering and cartographic information. The educational material shows how, using modern tools and AI, you can quickly move from problem definition to creating a working scenario without lengthy manual development. A real example of processing pipeline data is considered: automatic merging of linear segments within a single object based on a given distance between extreme points, followed by the removal of degenerate fragments. This approach allows performing precise and repeatable operations with extended objects, significantly reducing time compared to manual processing. Special attention is paid to the use of open materials and AI capabilities for generating and refining scripts. The user only needs to correctly formulate the task to get a solution basis, which can then be adapted to specific data and production requirements. This significantly lowers the barrier to entry into programming and speeds up the mastery of Python and MAPAPI in the GIS "Panorama" environment. The video tutorial demonstrates a modern LowCode approach, where the specialist focuses on problem definition, result verification, and configuration of ready-made scripts. This format of work allows for faster implementation of automation, replication of successful solutions, and increased efficiency of spatial data processing in daily activities. You can familiarize yourself with the video material in the "Video tutorials" section.
30.04.2026"Cadastral Engineer's ARM" ensures creation of XML documents for cadastral registration of lands within agricultural lands KB "Panorama" has developed the "Cadastral Engineer's ARM" version 15.5.5. In the new version, the mode has been improved, and processing of information about the boundaries of agricultural lands has been implemented. A new object "Agricultural Land" has been added to the "Cadastral Plan of the Territory" layer in the survey.v6 classifier. The value "22" - "Boundary of agricultural land within agricultural lands" has been added to the "Type of boundaries, zones and territories" semantics. Support for the updated XML schema interact_entry_boundaries_v02 is implemented, used for generating documents sent to the rights registration authority in the order of interdepartmental information interaction. The documents contain information about boundaries, zones, territories, and agricultural lands for entry into the boundaries register of the Unified State Register of Real Estate. The agricultural_land element is filled in the XML document - information about the boundary of agricultural land or changes to such information. A new dialog has been developed. The call is made in the "Parameters for generating cadastral documents" or "Reading the cadastral plan of the territory and updating the map" mode. In the "Read CPT and update map" dialog, outdated elements for configuring local coordinate system (LCS) parameters used when maintaining the Unified State Register of Real Estate have been removed. To establish the correspondence of the names of LCS in XML extracts to the specified LCS parameters in the coordinate system reference file, the "Correspondence of MSC designations and reference system parameters" dialog is called. The mode has been improved, and the "Name of Authority" directory has been added. The directory is used for entering and reusing information about state and municipal authorities when filling out relevant information in dialogs for generating cadastral documents. The mode has been improved, elements have been added to call tools for configuring local coordinate system parameters used when maintaining the state forest register. The reference system parameters for local coordinate systems are described in a special XML file, which users maintain in accordance with their available data. In XML extracts of the state forest register, coordinates of forest inventory compartments, forest blocks, forest districts, and forest plots can be presented in geographic and local coordinate systems. To establish the correspondence of LCS names in XML extracts to LCS parameters specified in the coordinate system reference file, the "Correspondence of MSC designations and reference system parameters" dialog is called. In the , when creating and editing contours of linear and area objects, automatic metric control for self-intersection and inclusion of subobjects has been added. When errors are detected, a pop-up error message appears in the lower right corner, and a transition is made to the point on the map containing the first error. To activate automatic metric control, you need to enable the "Check metric when saving" flag in the "Vector Map Editor Parameters" dialog. When the "Check length of new segment" flag is set, the function of checking the quality of object contour digitization is activated by highlighting the applied metric segment if it does not meet the vectorization parameters. If the segment length is less than the value of the "Filter level" field, the segment is highlighted with a red translucent line. If the segment length is greater than the value of the "Tracing step" field, the portion of the line exceeding the tracing step is highlighted with a purple translucent line. The new version of the program is available for download in the Download section.
29.04.2026GIS "Panorama Mobile" for Android expands tools for collecting and exchanging spatial data in new formats KB "Panorama" has developed version 1.12 for Android OS. The new version improves tools for editing object attributes. Data export from the application storage to exchange formats KML, SXF, AIXM, as well as sets of vector data, terrain images, and height matrices into a ZIP archive is supported. GIS "Panorama Mobile" supports the ability to add an image to a vector map object. The image can be taken using the mobile device's built-in camera or selected from data saved on the device. The path to the image is saved in the object's attributes, whereby the image automatically receives geospatial reference. The functionality of adding geo-referenced images can be used for photo-recording of objects and events directly on the ground with automatic linking of images to their coordinates on the map. This is especially useful for field surveys, infrastructure inventory, condition monitoring of objects, territory change monitoring, as well as collecting evidence for reports and inspections. This approach simplifies subsequent data analysis, helps to quickly compare images with specific terrain areas, and increases the clarity of cartographic information. The ability to change the color of objects by specifying a color in semantics has been added. This allows the user to highlight objects of interest on the map by adding a color accent. When placing data in a ZIP archive, the user can first select the data of interest (vector, raster, matrix) and then form the archive. A flexible selection system is supported: both at the level of individual files and at the level of entire directories. For vector maps, the ability to export to the SXF exchange format has been added - a common open format for digital maps used for transmitting and using spatial data in geographic information systems. The user can upload both local data and data located on the GIS Server (vector data, terrain images, matrices, spatial databases). The SXF format contains all necessary information about vector data (geometry and semantic description) and has a binary form, thereby achieving optimal volume. The resulting ZIP and SXF files can be easily transferred and used in the desktop programs GIS "Panorama", "Panorama-editor", and GIS Panorama Mini for subsequent processing of data from the mobile device. The source texts of GIS "Panorama Mobile" for Android are part of the GIS Constructor for Android software product and can be used as a basis for creating your own mobile application in the Kotlin programming language. GIS "Panorama Mobile" uses the MAPAPI program interface, which implements wide capabilities for performing calculations and displaying spatial data in standard and user-defined symbol systems. Access to the MAPAPI program interface occurs through the Java Native Interface program interface. The JNI program interface allows calling from Java/Kotlin language to MAPAPI libraries implemented in C/C++. An example implementation of this interface is included in the GIS Constructor for Android distribution. New versions of GIS "Panorama Mobile" and GIS Constructor for Android are available for download in the section.
28.04.2026An article on the application of "Panorama Photo" for topographic and geodetic support of dispersed complexes has been published The journal (No. 1, 2026) published an article "Stereophotogrammetric and photogrammetric methods of topographic and geodetic support for a technical complex dispersed over terrain". The material discusses two methods used for topographic and geodetic referencing of complex objects on the ground, and also presents an accuracy assessment of their relative position and orientation. Determining the plan-height position of such objects in a unified coordinate system (global, local, or conditional) is one of the priority and urgent tasks. The approaches presented in the article allow calculating the topographic and geodetic parameters of equipment with a dispersed structure with accuracy significantly exceeding the capabilities of existing methods. The methods are implemented using unmanned aerial vehicles. The program is used to process the obtained images, designed for automatically obtaining digital terrain information from aerial photography materials. The primary processing result is a dense point cloud, based on which a height matrix and orthophotoplan are formed. The entire process, with the exception of the optional stage of measuring reference points on images, is fully automated. The final photographic materials using and additional software complexes can be used to solve various applied tasks. These include: constructing visibility zones and zones of compliance with specified conditions; calculating surface statistics and its derivatives (slopes, angle matrix); forecasting zones of emergency liquid spills, modeling the development of emergency situations, and others. You can familiarize yourself with the materials on the application of "Panorama Photo" for topographic and geodetic support of dispersed complexes in the Articles section.
27.04.2026GIS ToolKit updates tools for processing large volumes of vector maps and displaying tiles KB "Panorama" has developed the toolkit for creating GIS applications version 15.2.2. The new version of the GIS core allows asynchronously, in the background, opening large vector maps of tens of gigabytes in size, containing millions of objects, without interrupting the processing of other data. Simultaneously, using display and editing components, you can view and edit other maps and data that are already loaded. with tiles in PBF and GPKG format has been added, which contain vector information, semantics (attributes), and metadata for various display zoom levels. A multi-scale map is created for layers from such geoportals. The map display component automatically assigns styles in the form of graphic primitives for each type of object. Vector maps can be opened in one project together with remote sensing data, databases, and geoportals operating under other protocols. The in vector symbols has been improved in the GIS core. The label can contain permanent text or text generated from the semantic characteristic of the symbol. The "#" sign is used to indicate a reference to semantics, for example "#9(noname)" - reference to semantics with code 9; if such semantics is absent, the text in parentheses is displayed - "noname". The new implementation allows specifying codes of alternative semantics in parentheses: "#9(#91|#92|text)". This entry allows displaying the proper name first (code 9), if semantics 9 is absent - the name in English (code 91) or the name in the national language (code 92). If it is necessary to display units of measurement, the "@" sign is indicated in parentheses, for example: "#296(@)" - show the angle value indicating the degree sign (text "123.4°"); if semantics is absent, an empty value is output. When generating text, the ability to sample a value from compound semantics has been added. Compound semantics can contain values of several attributes separated by commas: Example of a compound characteristic "Flight Route Operating Conditions" (code 47): "FORWARD, FL120, STD, FL510, STD, OPEN". When specifying a reference to semantics like "#47[2]", the value of the second attribute will be selected (text "FL120"), "#47[4]" - the fourth attribute (text "FL510"). If the object contains the second value of repeated semantics 47 ("BACKWARD, FL130, STD, FL490, STD, OPEN"), then the reference should look like: "#47[4-2]" - the value of the fourth attribute of the second value of semantics 47 (text "FL490"). The full list of service symbols and words used to describe the label format is provided on the page. The function to GML/JSON format has been improved. A new parameter has been added to ensure the preservation of the appearance (styles) of objects. In this mode, the image of point objects is saved as a picture in the output file. Data is saved in GML format in accordance with OGC 02-070 version 1.0.0 - SLD. The toolkit is intended for the development of client-server and desktop 32-bit and 64-bit applications that require processing and visualization of spatial data. GIS ToolKit classes and components are intended for use in the Embarcadero RAD Studio XE5 and higher programming environment (Delphi and C++ Builder) and are supplied with source codes. Components can be compared to "semi-finished products", using which you can quickly and easily develop your own geographic information application. At the same time, the GIS core of the GIS ToolKit toolkit can be used not only in the Embarcadero environment but also in any development environment with any compiler that supports calling WINAPI standard functions. The new version of the program is available for download in the section.
24.04.2026GIS "Panorama" automates control of operator actions correctness when creating digital terrain maps KB "Panorama" has developed . In the new version, tools for automatic control of user actions when mapping objects and entering attributes have been expanded. Settings for processes of automatic object recognition on terrain images for different recognition models have been improved. Settings for formatting object characteristic labels have been supplemented. In the "Cadastral Documents" task, the mode implements processing of information about the boundaries of agricultural lands. In the task, in object modes, the ability to automatically control metrics for self-intersection and inclusion of subobjects has been added. Metric control is performed when writing a linear or area object to the map. When errors are detected, a pop-up error message appears in the lower right corner, and a transition is made to the point on the map containing the first error. A marker is placed at the map point containing the error. The full list of errors is written to a log, which is opened in the "Measurements and Control" - mode. When the "Check metric when saving" checkbox is enabled in the "Vector Map Editor Parameters" dialog, automatic metric control is activated in the following modes: Create Object, Create Subobject, Create by Type, Redigitization of Linear Object, Move Object Section, Close Object, Edit Point, Delete Point, Create Point, Edit Section. Automatic metric control when creating and editing contours allows for more efficient metric correction, reducing operations to run control for the entire vector map. In the and modes, the ability to check the specified quality of object contour digitization has been added. In the "Vector Map Editor Parameters" dialog, the "Check length of new segment" checkbox enables highlighting of the current (final) segment being drawn if it does not meet the vectorization parameters. If the segment length is less than the value of the "Filter level" field, the segment is highlighted with a red translucent line. If the segment length is greater than the value of the "Tracing step" field, the portion of the line exceeding the tracing step is highlighted with a purple translucent line. Segment highlighting helps visually determine the recommended position of the next point - until purple highlighting appears. This application method reduces the number of extra points and also ensures a given point density when creating and editing maps in manual vectorization modes of terrain objects. The dialog, which replaces the values of semantic characteristics of selected objects, has been improved. The new version allows adjusting semantics based on entered semantic values or a dictionary (in CSV format). The dictionary string format is: "original value";"new value". It is recommended to use the ";" character or a tab as a delimiter. Double quotes are recommended but not required. The search for the original value is performed in modes: Full match, Partial match, Match from beginning. When selecting the "Partial match" or "Match from beginning" property, the "Replace partially" checkbox is available. When partial replacement is enabled, the search and replacement of a specific word or combination of words in the semantics value is performed. If the text of the original semantics string contains words specified in several lines of the dictionary, then this string will be processed several times - until all found words are processed. The ability to select and update values for several codes of the (numeric, text, angular, and other types) has been added. Updating semantics via a dictionary is performed only for text semantics. By default, the list of semantics contains all types of semantic characteristics. In this case, only one characteristic can be updated. To update several semantic characteristics, you need to select the type and select several lines in the list of semantics. Selecting multiple semantics is done with the left mouse button in the list of semantics while holding down the Shift or Ctrl key. The task is called in the "Map Editor - Edit Semantics" panel. The functionality of the dialog in the "Map Editor" task has been expanded. The dialog allows adding, deleting, and changing the order of columns with object information. The table composition is managed using the context menu, which lists object attributes. For example: display scale, presence of 3D view, digitization direction, metaobject. Multi-level has been added. Sorting is added using the Shift key combination and left-clicking on the table column header. The order and type of sorting are indicated in the headers of sorted columns. For example: "[1] Code ", "[2] Name". Filtering of classifier objects is performed by the displayed table columns. Available localizations, layer and class trees are automatically filtered based on the selected objects. Layer or class search with a drop-down list of selected values has been added. For objects having a 3D view, a three-dimensional display of the object's view is added. In the task, a mechanism of extended settings has been added, allowing control of image digitization parameters for each recognition model. The user gains the ability to adapt processing to the characteristics of the source data and requirements for the resulting vector map. Extended settings are structured into groups. Each neural network model has its own set of parameters affecting the result of object vectorization. When working with the task, the entered settings are saved until it is closed. For recognition models of agricultural fields, forests, and buildings, the choice of neural network subtype is available. For example, for building recognition, the following subtypes are available: "Aerial photo (0.15 m/pixel)" and "Satellite (0.6 m/pixel)". Each subtype is trained on data with the corresponding spatial resolution and provides the best recognition quality for similar types of images. If no explicit choice is made, the subtype is determined automatically by the resolution of the input data. The user can set minimum object sizes, manage tolerances when merging linear objects (roads), and also adjust the level of bringing contours to a rectangular shape. For buildings, adjustment of contour position to the foundation has been additionally implemented, which increases the accuracy of their placement on the map. In combined recognition modes ("City" and "Complex Processing"), parameters for different types of objects (e.g., buildings and roads) are simultaneously available, allowing coordinated configuration of the vectorization result. When recognizing vehicles, the user can specify a prediction confidence threshold (as a percentage). The threshold determines the balance between recognition completeness and the number of false positives. As a result, extended settings allow moving from a fixed processing mode to a controlled process where the user can quickly select optimal vectorization parameters for a specific territory and data type. The display of has been improved. Text editing is performed in the map editor mode or in the "Object Properties" dialog in the "Metrics" tab. Typically, the field for entering label text contains the text itself. In this case, the text is not linked to a specific object semantics. Therefore, after editing the object's semantics, the label text on the map may differ from the text in the semantics. To eliminate contradictions between the text in the metrics and semantics (in the "Metrics" tab), a reference to the semantics value is placed in the text input field, for example, to semantics with code 9 (Proper name): "#9". The new version of the program adds the possibility of extended formatting - after the numeric type semantics code, the label output format "%0N.n" or "%N.n" can be specified, where "N" is the total number of characters of the number, including "." and "-" signs. The symbol "0" after the "%" symbol indicates zero padding (on the left) when the integer part of the number occupies fewer characters than specified by the "N" parameter. Usually this notation is used when displaying angle values - format "#321%03": for semantics with code "321" with a value of "7", the label "007" will be displayed on the map, and with a value of "0" – "000". The parameter "n" indicates the number of digital characters after the decimal point of a real number. If the parameter "n" is not specified, the value is rounded to an integer. New formatting rules can be applied in labels and that have labels with references to semantics. When importing vector terrain data in , support for links from the KML file to external KML files, which can be packaged in a common KMZ archive, or specified as links (URLs) to external resources, has been added. A based on data from the of a Python script has been added to the task composition. The script builds thematic maps of constituent entities of the Russian Federation based on official summary tables of socio-economic indicators. Based on the selected table and value column, gradations are automatically calculated, a color scale is selected, and a thematic map with a legend and labels is formed. The interface allows selection of an indicator and data preview, including title, period, and units of measurement. Build parameters allow taking into account minimum and maximum values, as well as customizing the color scheme. The ability to update tables from the federal portal is provided, which allows updating the used data in accordance with the publication schedule of official statistics. The created thematic maps are automatically opened in GIS "Panorama" and can be used for analysis, reporting, and preparation of presentation materials. The task is called in the panel "Tasks - Run applications - Scripts". In the task, the "Map (Plan) of the Land Management Object" mode has been improved. Processing of information about the boundaries of agricultural lands has been implemented. A new object "Agricultural Land" has been added to the survey.v6 classifier in the "Cadastral Plan of the Territory" layer. The value "22" - "Boundary of agricultural land within agricultural lands" has been added to the "Type of boundaries, zones and territories" semantics. Support for the updated XML schema interact_entry_boundaries_v02 is implemented, used for generating XML documents sent in the form of electronic documents to the rights registration authority by state authorities, local self-government bodies in the order of interdepartmental information interaction regarding information about boundaries, zones, territories, agricultural lands, for entry into the boundaries register of the Unified State Register of Real Estate. The agricultural_land element is filled in the XML document – Information about the boundary of the land reservation territory or changes to information about such a boundary. A new dialog has been developed. The dialog is called in the "Parameters for generating cadastral documents" or "Reading the cadastral plan of the territory and updating the map" dialog. In the dialog, outdated elements for configuring local coordinate system (LCS) parameters used when maintaining the Unified State Register of Real Estate have been removed. To establish the correspondence of the names of LCS in XML extracts to named LCS parameters in the coordinate system reference file, the "Correspondence of MSC designations and reference system parameters" dialog is called. In the mode, the "Name of Authority" directory has been added. The directory is used for entering and reusing information about state and municipal authorities when filling out relevant information in dialogs for generating cadastral documents. In the task, the mode has been improved. Elements have been added to call tools for configuring local coordinate system (LCS) parameters used when maintaining the state forest register. The reference system parameters for local coordinate systems are described in a special XML file, which users maintain in accordance with their available data. In XML extracts of the state forest register, coordinates of forest inventory compartments, forest blocks, forest districts, and forest plots can be presented in geographic and local coordinate systems. To establish the correspondence of LCS names in XML extracts to named LCS parameters in the coordinate system reference file, the "Correspondence of MSC designations and reference system parameters" dialog is called. The new version of the program is available for download in the section.

23.04.2026Training material on the capabilities of decryption of images using the "Panorama Vision" service has been prepared Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared a video tutorial demonstrating the stages of automatic image decryption using the service within the software. The material showcases the task, presenting the complete cycle of remote sensing data processing: from selecting the initial image to obtaining a ready-made vector map. The solution enables the automatic recognition of objects on satellite and aerial photographs, as well as on data obtained from unmanned aerial vehicles. Processing is performed by transmitting a selected area to the specialized "Panorama Vision" service, where a neural network model performs analysis, segmentation, and vectorization of objects. Special attention in the video tutorial is given to the application of the combined neural network model "City". This model ensures not only the recognition of individual objects but also their topological alignment, yielding more accurate and logically consistent results. During processing, buildings, road networks, and other urban infrastructure elements are automatically identified, followed by the formation of a coherent data structure. An important advantage of the solution is its integration with the address database of GIS "Panorama". In the "City" mode, the system is not limited to geometric recognition — it automatically determines the address characteristics of objects. For buildings and streets, semantic parameters are filled in, including house numbers, street names, localities, and administrative units. This allows obtaining not just a map but a structured geoinformation database, ready for further analysis and use. Additional capabilities demonstrated in the video tutorial include automatically placing labels on the map and applying advanced settings to improve object geometry accuracy and the quality of the resulting data. The user can flexibly manage processing parameters depending on the type of territory and the requirements for the result. The presented technologies are particularly in demand when creating and updating digital city plans, conducting urban planning and cadastral work, monitoring territories, analyzing consequences of emergencies, as well as for solving tasks in defense and security sectors. "Panorama Vision" significantly reduces the labor costs of image processing, minimizes manual data entry, and enhances the accuracy and completeness of cartographic information. The use of Panorama Vision within GIS "Panorama" ensures a transition from traditional manual vectorization to intelligent data processing, where the image is automatically transformed into a complete digital terrain model with semantics and address information. You can familiarize yourself with the video material in the "Video Tutorials" section.
17.04.2026GIS Panorama Mini for Linux Supports New Open Vector Formats of Connected Geoportals KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.4.2 for Astra Linux Special Edition, Alt Linux, RED OS, and Ubuntu.

A multi-scale map is automatically created for layers from such geoportals. The system automatically assigns styles in the form of graphic primitives for each object type. Vector maps can be opened in the same project alongside vector maps, remote sensing data, databases, and geoportals operating via other protocols. GIS now includes a new designed for comprehensive preparation of cartographic materials for output. The dialog provides selection of the print area, setting the required scale, configuring page layout and output parameters, as well as generating PDF and PostScript files. Extended color rendering modes are supported, including RGB, CMYK, and color separation, allowing the new tool to be used both for quick printing of working materials and for preparing cartographic products for print publishing. The implementation of a unified print dialog enhances usability, reduces parameter setup time, and expands capabilities for preparing materials for publication and mass printing. When editing vector map objects in and modes, the "Capture Contour Point" operation now includes the ability to snap to the center of a segment. When capturing a contour node, a square marker appears on the screen; when capturing the center, a diamond-shaped marker appears. This method simplifies the placement of point and vector symbols on the contour of another object. The merging of area objects has been improved. Before merging, automatic contour preparation is performed: duplicate points are removed and adjacent contour segments are aligned, considering the position of the starting points of external contours relative to the contours of the object being attached. This procedure improves the reliability of merging overlapping objects. The new version improves the mechanism for generating and labels. Labels can contain static text or be generated based on object semantics using references to the corresponding semantics. The ability to specify alternative semantics (used when the primary value is absent) has been implemented. Tools for customizing label formatting when displaying units of measurement have been expanded. Support is also provided for extracting individual attributes from composite semantics, including retrieving values from repeating semantic characteristics. These changes provide greater flexibility in configuring vector symbol labels and expand the capabilities for generating displayed data depending on the composition of the object's semantic characteristics. The classifier editor now includes a font editing mode designed for configuring font parameters used in creating and maintaining digital classifiers. The tool allows setting basic font characteristics, including custom name and height, ensuring centralized management of the classifier's font set and simplifying their subsequent use when configuring the display of cartographic objects. GIS Panorama Mini is a domestic geographic information system used for spatial data collection, database management, creation and updating of digital maps and plans, as well as development of information systems for various purposes.

14.04.2026Application of Artificial Intelligence for Spatial Analysis in GIS "Panorama" Presented in New Video Tutorial supports the expansion of functionality through the development of user scripts in Python for solving applied spatial data processing tasks. However, using this mechanism was difficult for many users due to the need for programming skills. The new video tutorial demonstrates an approach that removes this limitation by using AI tools for script preparation, making automation more accessible to GIS professionals. The video material examines the full cycle of solving an applied task: from formulating data processing requirements to creating a working automation scenario based on the MAPAPI interface of the "Panorama" core. Before starting, the environment must be configured: installing Python, the Cursor code editor, and GIS "Panorama". To solve applied tasks, the is recommended, containing code examples and supporting materials for creating custom spatial information processing scenarios. This approach allows transitioning from manual operations to building reproducible and scalable spatial information processing algorithms. After configuring the environment, you need to open the project in Cursor, select an AI agent, and give it a prompt to write a Python script for a specific spatial data processing task. The user can formulate queries in natural language, after which the AI generates the basis of a software solution, which is then adapted to the specific project requirements and data composition. Scripts obtained in this way are then connected to GIS "Panorama" and executed. This makes working with Python more accessible, lowers the barrier to starting development, and allows faster practical results without lengthy manual writing of repetitive code. GIS "Panorama" already includes a basic set of ready-made automation scenario examples. These scripts demonstrate typical spatial data processing tasks and can be used as a foundation for developing custom solutions. They include processing and editing objects (e.g., shifting objects, creating grids), working with coordinates and elevations from matrices, semantic analysis and processing, label generation, calculating areas and object characteristics, importing and exporting data, as well as spatial analysis tasks including data and distance calculations along road graphs. Ready-made examples are used to solve a wide range of practical tasks: from preparing cartographic materials and maintaining cadastral data to territory analysis, transport calculations, and automating the processing of large spatial data arrays. Using these scenarios allows users to quickly implement automation into their daily work and adapt solutions to their requirements. The MAPAPI interface of the "Panorama" core provides a set of functions for working with spatial data. Combined with Python and AI tools, it creates a modern automation environment that expands user capabilities in solving applied tasks. You can watch the video tutorial in the "Video Tutorials" section.
13.04.2026GIS "Operator" for Linux improves tools for designing and printing operational terrain maps and service reports KB "Panorama" has developed GIS "Operator" version 15.4.2 for the "Astra Linux Special Edition" OS. The new version implements a unified map printing dialog with support for PDF, PostScript, and color separation, expands the protocols and data formats of connected geoportals. Support for topological relationships when editing vector maps has been improved, settings for generating explanatory labels of object properties on special maps have been supplemented, and the ability to edit fonts in the classifier has been added. The program includes a new designed for comprehensive preparation of cartographic materials for output. The dialog provides selection of the print area, setting the required scale, configuring page-by-page sheet layout and print output parameters, as well as generating PDF and PostScript files. Extended color representation modes are supported, including RGB, CMYK, and color separation, allowing the new tool to be used both for operational printing of working materials and for preparing cartographic products for polygraphic publication. The implementation of a unified print dialog improves usability, reduces output parameter setup time, and expands the capabilities for preparing materials for publication and duplication. with tiles in pbf/gpkg format has been added, which contain vector information, semantics (attributes), and metadata for various display scale levels. A multi-scale map is created for layers from such geoportals. The task automatically assigns styles in the form of graphic primitives for each object type. Vector maps can be opened in the same project with vector maps, remote sensing data, databases, and geoportals operating under other protocols. When editing vector map objects in the modes , , and , the ability to position at the center of a segment has been added for the "Capture Contour Point" operation. When capturing a contour node, a square marker appears on the screen; when capturing the center, a diamond-shaped marker appears. This method simplifies the placement of point and vector signs on the contour of another object. Area object merging has been improved. Before merging, automatic contour preparation is performed: removal of double points and alignment of adjacent contour segments considering the location of the starting points of external contours relative to the contours of the attached object. This procedure increases the reliability of merging objects that have area overlap. In the new version, the mechanism for generating and displaying vector has been improved. A label can contain permanent text or be formed based on the semantic characteristics of the object using references to the corresponding semantics. The ability to specify alternative semantics used in the absence of the main value has been implemented. Tools for configuring the label format when displaying units of measurement have been expanded. Support for selecting individual attributes from composite semantics, including obtaining values from repeating semantic characteristics, is also provided. The changes made provide increased flexibility in configuring vector sign labels and expand the possibilities for generating displayed data depending on the composition of the object's semantic characteristics. The classifier editor includes a font for configuring font design parameters used in creating and maintaining digital classifiers.

09.04.2026A tool has been developed for creating thematic maps based on Rosstat data KB "Panorama" has prepared a software for thematic mapping based on data, which allows automatically creating visual maps of socio-economic indicators for the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The new mode is designed to work with official Rosstat summary tables and provides rapid conversion of tabular data into a ready-made thematic map. The user simply selects the indicator of interest, specifies the column with values, and the system automatically calculates gradations, selects a color scale, and generates a vector map with a legend and labels. The tool is especially in demand when solving problems of monitoring the socio-economic development of regions, preparing analytical materials and presentations for government authorities, as well as when generating reports. It allows quickly comparing statistical indicators with territory, identifying patterns, and visually assessing differences between constituent entities. Using the mode significantly reduces the labor costs of preparing thematic maps. The need for manual data processing, setting up classifications, and designing legends is eliminated – all stages are performed automatically. At the same time, configuration flexibility is maintained: the user can set value ranges, choose a color scheme, and control data display. Additionally, the ability to load and update statistical tables directly from the Rosstat portal has been implemented, ensuring the relevance of the information used. Built-in data preview simplifies the selection of indicators and verification of the correctness of source values. The result of the work is a ready-made vector map, which automatically opens in and can be used for further analysis, design, and publication. The use of the new tool makes it possible to significantly accelerate the preparation of analytical materials, increase the clarity of data presentation, and ensure a unified approach to thematic mapping based on official statistics.

06.04.2026GIS "Panorama" for Linux expands tools for preparing cadastral documents, map design and printing KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.4.2 for OS "Astra Linux Special Edition", "Alt Linux", "RED OS", and Ubuntu. The program implements new modes in the cadastral document preparation task and the geodetic editor, adds a new map printing dialog, and expands protocols and data formats of connected geoportals. Support for topological relationships of objects when editing vector maps has been improved, settings for generating explanatory labels of object properties on special maps have been supplemented, and the ability to edit fonts in the classifier has been added. In the task, a new mode has been developed, combining the capabilities of outdated technical plan generation modes. The new mode collects information from the map and generates a technical plan as a text report and an electronic XML document for buildings, structures, unfinished construction objects, premises, parking spaces, and single real estate complexes. Input and editing of technical plan information is carried out in the "Technical Plan" dialog, while initial information is requested from cadastral map objects and the cadastral works database. Map preparation is an important stage in forming the technical plan; its content depends on the type of real estate object and must include necessary objects described in the survey.v6 classifier in the "Technical Plan" layer. The left part of the dialog contains a section tree, and the right part displays information for the selected tree node. Auxiliary dialogs have been developed for entering and editing composite attributes of the technical plan: "Document", "Location within the real estate object", "Characteristics of all premises, parking spaces located in the building, structure". For buildings and structures, parts of two types are provided: with coordinate description of location and with text description. For premises, only parts with text description of location are provided. The text report of the technical plan is created in DOCX format based on templates of established form and content. Report templates contain markers that the program replaces with attribute values. The electronic XML document is formed in accordance with the TP_v07_R03 schema. In the task, a new mode has been developed, designed for automated plotting of geodetic measurement results on a map. The mode is developed considering current regulatory requirements for geodetic construction schemes and replaces two outdated modes: "Creating a Scheme of Base Stations at an Object in a Separate Window" and "Generate a Summary Protocol of GPS Measurements". The task dialog provides control over the composition of graphic elements plotted on the map, considering the number and location of base stations. Typically, the following objects are plotted on the scheme: geodetic points, base stations, direction to the base station, cadastral object contour, existing and new points of object boundaries, direction to the boundary point, boundary segments, explanatory labels. For the "Scheme of Geodetic Constructions" mode, the creation of a geodetic construction scheme for cases where base stations are located at geodetic network points is also implemented. Scheme generation without filling in base station information in the dialog is supported. Direction lines "base station - object" are created on the scheme. Points without their own name are now designated as new on the scheme. In the mode, reading of extracts for forest quarters from the State Forest Register has been improved. The order of sections containing references to spatial names has been corrected. Support for creating a map in a local coordinate system has been implemented. This uses an LCS parameter file and a correspondence file. The correspondence file can be configured in the dialog of the mode or in any text editor. The program uses the LCS code or name specified in the XML extract file from the State Forest Register to search for a line in the correspondence file. For the found line, it determines the LCS name in the parameter file and sets these parameters in the map passport. The new implementation allows both creating maps for each extract separately and updating one common map. The task has been improved. In the "Read CPT and Update Map" mode dialog, the "Reference system parameter file" and "Correspondence file" fields have been added. The process of creating temporary maps for source XML files has been optimized. Previously, a map was created for each LCS specified in the correspondence file. Now, only maps whose LCS names were encountered when reading USRN XML files are created. For XML files without spatial data, information about the LCS name is absent. To plot conditional objects from such files, a map with the "Large-scale plan" type is created. The mode has been updated regarding maintaining information about geodetic points. A "Save geopoints to CSV file" button has been added. Data is saved considering the set filter in the dialog on the "Geopoints" tab. When loading geodetic network points from CSV, analysis of the data string format has been added for automatic reading of information about geodetic points in abbreviated and full compositions of source data fields. In the modes and , the ability to insert into the report information described in the map passport or classifier has been added. In the task, XML generation according to the SchemaParcels_V03 schema has been implemented. In the "Cadastral Works Database" mode, when exporting information about geodetic points to CSV format, platform analysis has been added to automatically select the file encoding. The dialog has been improved so that actions with map objects can be performed simultaneously with the open dialog. In the modes "Calculate Intersection of Objects", "View Intersection of Objects", and "Control Intersection of Objects", processing of lists from the GIS Server has been added. In the task, the composition of cadastral object attributes has been refined in accordance with the data from the "National System of Spatial Data" geoportal. The mode has been improved to obtain information about parts of premises. Reading of data from the node "Information on the inclusion of a real estate object in the unified state register of cultural heritage objects (historical and cultural monuments) of the peoples of the Russian Federation" and saving information into multiple object semantics has been added. A new mode has been developed. It integrates the capabilities of the "Building Profile of a Linear Structure" and "Building Route Profile" dialogs. The updated mode allows building profiles for various types of linear structures (roads, railway tracks, power lines, pipelines, and others). Depending on the type of linear structure, additional design elements are plotted on the profile diagram: stakes, angles, distances, information about curves and straights, and others. Tools for controlling the diagram's appearance have been expanded. The ability to split the diagram into printable pages and insert prepared stamps (document title blocks) and approving signatures into the designed pages has been added. Profile construction is implemented in cases of partial or complete absence of a height matrix (if the object has 3D coordinates), and in the absence of 3D coordinates - forming a straight line with the creation of all possible design tables. A check for going beyond the route boundaries when generating the curve table has been added. Saving profile settings information to a file for initializing the has been implemented. The system includes a new print dialog designed for comprehensive preparation of cartographic materials for output. The dialog provides selection of the print area, setting the required scale, configuring page-by-page sheet layout and print output parameters, as well as generating PDF and PostScript files. Extended color representation modes are supported, including RGB, CMYK, and color separation, allowing the new tool to be used both for operational printing of working materials and for preparing cartographic products for polygraphic publication. The implementation of a unified print dialog improves usability, reduces output parameter setup time, and expands the capabilities for preparing materials for publication and duplication. Added with tiles in pbf/gpkg format, which contain vector information, semantics (attributes), and metadata for various display scale levels. A multi-scale map is created for layers from such geoportals. The task automatically assigns styles in the form of graphic primitives for each object type. Vector maps can be opened in the same project with vector maps, remote sensing data, databases, and geoportals operating under other protocols. When editing vector map objects in the modes "Create Objects", "Create by Type", "Edit Point", "Digitize Linear Object", the ability to position at the center of a segment has been added for the "Capture Contour Point" operation. When capturing a contour node, a square marker appears on the screen; when capturing the center, a diamond-shaped marker appears. This method simplifies the placement of point and vector signs on the contour of another object. Area object merging has been improved. Before merging, automatic contour preparation is performed: removal of double points and alignment of adjacent contour segments considering the location of the starting points of external contours relative to the contours of the attached object.

03.04.2026Imagery Service forms tile pyramids extending beyond standard hemisphere boundaries KB "Panorama" has developed version 11.7.0. In the new version, the capabilities for cutting tiles for maps whose territories extend beyond 180 degrees have been expanded. Such data no longer require preliminary preparation: there is no longer a need to manually cut the map along the 180-degree line and move objects from one hemisphere to another. The service will automatically perform the transfer and correct numbering of areas. This is relevant for maps of the territory of the Russian Federation, especially for the Chukotka Peninsula region. In the new version, for MBTiles and GeoPackage formats, saving of the initial data opening point and scale has been added, making work with projects more convenient and allowing faster return to the desired map view. The service determines the opening point and scale by analyzing the available information on the map. This will allow users of programs such as , , and others to automatically open the map in the accessible data area. The program allows generating tiles in JPEG, PNG, PNG8, Mbtiles, BIR, GeoPackage, WebP, GeoJson formats according to the international standard OGC WMTS 07-057r7 version 1.0.0, TMS standard, and OGC 12-128r15 GeoPackage version 1.2.1.

30.03.2026In "ARM of the Cadastral Engineer", Tools for Information Exchange with the USRN and SFR have been Expanded KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.5.4. In the new version, the process of establishing the correspondence between the names of coordinate systems used for maintaining the Unified State Register of Real Estate (USRN) and the State Forest Register (SFR) with the geodetic parameters of local coordinate systems has been automated. For this purpose, a file of local coordinate system (LCS) parameters and a file for matching LCS names to their parameters are used. The configuration of the matching file can be performed in the dialog of the mode or in any text editor. Users can independently adjust the parameter file and the matching file in accordance with the information and data available to them. The program uses the LCS code or name specified in the XML extract file from the USRN or SFR to search for a line in the matching file. Then, for the found line, the LCS name in the parameter file is determined, and these parameters are set in the map passport. In the task, reading the extract for a forest quarter has been improved. The order of sections containing references to spatial names has been corrected. Support for creating a map in a local coordinate system has been implemented, which allows both creating separate maps for each extract and updating a single common map. This supports general geographic coordinate systems in meters and degrees (EPSG3857, EPSG4087, and EPSG4326) and local coordinate systems based on the LCS matching file. In the dialog of the "Reading a cadastral plan of the territory and updating the map" mode, the fields "File of reference systems parameters" and "Matching file" have been added. The procedure for creating temporary maps for source USRN XML files has been optimized, eliminating the creation of unnecessary datasets. The program now only creates maps for those LCS names encountered while reading the USRN XML files. For USRN XML files without spatial data, where information about the LCS name is absent, or for datasets without established correspondence to LCS parameters, a map of the "Large-scale plan" type is created. In the mode, the formation of an XML document according to the SchemaParcels_V03 scheme has been implemented. In the dialog of the task, on the "Basic Information" tab, the CONSTRUCTION_PERIOD semantics has been removed for a single real estate complex. On the "Location" tab, the obsolete "On map" button has been removed. The button name "FIAS address" has been changed to "Select address", as the address is selected from the KB "Panorama" address database, not from the resources of the Federal Address Information System. In the mode, when exporting geodetic point information to CSV format, platform analysis has been added to automatically select the file encoding. Obsolete mode buttons "Generate summary GPS measurement report" and "Create coordinate catalog from PNT file" have been removed from the Geodetic Editor panel. Their functions are provided by the and "Cadastral works database" modes, respectively. For user convenience, a flag "do not terminate task operation after execution" has been added to the geodetic editor parameters. The flag is used in geometric construction modes, constructions parallel and along an object. For the "Scheme of geodetic constructions" mode, the creation of a geodetic construction scheme for cases where base stations are located at geodetic network points has been implemented. The formation of the scheme without filling in information about the base station in the dialog is supported. Direction lines "base station - object" are created in the scheme. Errors in configuring and creating labels for cadastral object points have been fixed. Points without their own name are now designated as new points in the scheme. In the mode, the order of reading the composition and names of object keys processed on the source map and applied to the resulting map has been corrected. The ability to log program errors and failures to a diagnostic journal has been added. In the and "Filling out the report for an object" modes, the ability to select a folder for saving the report has been added. When using a map located in a shared network folder, reports created by all users simultaneously working with the map are generated in this shared folder. To mitigate risks of working with someone else's report or deleting a report, the option to choose a folder for saving it has been implemented. Obsolete parameters have been removed from the geodetic editor parameters: template of the created report, folder for reports placement, generating a report with selection from a list. The ability to insert information into the report that is not contained in object semantics has been added. For processing attributes described in the map passport or map classifier, the following markers are supported: #MapName# - map name, #LayerName# - layer name, #ObjectName# - object name, #ObjectKey# - object key. For the mode, the algorithm for obtaining the area determination error value has been corrected. In the text report for identified objects, the #DAREA# marker (estimate of discrepancy between calculated area and area recorded in the USRN) has been replaced with #PAREA# (area determination error value). In the mode, when forming an XML document according to the interact_entry_boundaries_v02.xsd scheme, the algorithm for recording the "Maximum plot size" and "Minimum plot size" elements has been changed. These elements are not written to the file if their value is 0. providing vector data for territorial planning and territory development in PBF and GPKG formats has been implemented. Such data may contain object geometry, their attribute characteristics, and metadata for various scaling levels. When connecting such services, a multi-scale map is formed, for which display styles for various object types are automatically assigned. This allows using geoportal data, traditional vector maps, remote sensing materials, and databases in one project, significantly expanding territory analysis capabilities. For the mode, the procedure for using information on the area of a real estate object according to documents for multi-contour objects has been changed. Information about such area is stored in the AREADOC semantics, while the XML file and technical plan report previously used only the area of the first contour of the object. Calculation of the sum of areas for all contours has been added. During calculation, if the AREADOC semantics for a contour is not filled, the area from the map is used. When generating the report, the type of graphic files for the "Location scheme" section has been corrected. The check for placing graphic files in the map folder has been removed. When forming XML, the OtherParentCadastralNumbers node was filled from incorrect semantics; this has been corrected to KADNUM_ENK. The new version of the program is available for download in the Download section.

23.03.2026In the "Panorama Vision" Suite, Recognition Accuracy for Forests, Roads, and Complex-Shaped Buildings Has Been Improved KB "Panorama" has developed the Automatic Recognition and Vectorization Suite version 1.9.1. In the new version, a number of important improvements have been implemented aimed at increasing the accuracy of interpreting satellite data and aerial photographs. Forest recognition quality on winter images has been improved. The neural network model has been retrained to account for seasonal features of images, including snow cover texture and reduced contrast of forest boundaries. Updated post-processing algorithms for semantic masks allow reducing the number of false positives under winter survey conditions. Building recognition accuracy on satellite and aerial photographs has been improved. The improvements affected both the segmentation stage and subsequent post-processing of results. Neural network models were retrained on new images of Russian cities. Algorithms for adjusting building outlines to rectangular form have been improved: the service now more accurately determines the dominant orientation of the object and works more stably with complex L-, U-, E-, and other composite shapes. As a result, the outlines become more precise, orthogonal, and suitable for further use in cartographic and cadastral tasks. A new neural network model, "Roads (rural areas)", has been added to the "Panorama Vision" suite, trained for segmenting dirt roads on satellite images of rural territories. The model has greater sensitivity in extracting unpaved roads outside and inside settlements, allowing a reduction in the number of breaks in the road network after vectorization. Furthermore, the quality of processing large images has been improved by eliminating artifacts when stitching tiles. Previously, when processing large rasters, local mask defects and recognition instability could occur in border zones between individual image fragments. The updated processing scheme ensures consistent object formation across the entire image area, including on large rasters. This is especially important for large scenes covering urban development, forests, and agricultural territories. The implemented changes make the service more accurate and stable when processing large data volumes in tasks related to forest fund monitoring, capital construction inventory, and cartographic information updating. To use the Panorama Vision service, you need to launch the task from the main menu of : Launch applications - Automatic object creation - Automatic Recognition and Vectorization Suite - Automatic image recognition. The current version of GIS "Panorama" is available for download in the section.

The new version of the program is available for download in the Download section.
18.03.2026"ARM of the Urban Planner" Supports Information Interaction with the NSDS Platform, Regional GIS, and UDAS KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.5.4. The new version expands capabilities for working with state sources of spatial information used for territory management. Connection to layers of the digital platform is provided. The map editor supports maintaining regional GIS layers hosted on the and their automatic updating in the NSDS using . Data export functions ensure the unloading of information for placement in state information systems for ensuring urban development activities (UDAS) in accordance with regional rules for their maintenance. The program has implemented providing vector data for territorial planning in PBF and GPKG formats. Such data may contain object geometry, their attribute characteristics, and metadata for various scaling levels. When connecting such services, a multi-scale map is formed, for which display styles for various object types are automatically assigned. This allows using geoportal data, traditional vector maps, remote sensing materials, and databases in one project, significantly expanding territory analysis capabilities. Special attention has been paid to working with large spatial datasets. The system has improved the mechanism for opening vector maps of tens of gigabytes in size containing millions of objects. Loading such maps is performed in the background, allowing the user to continue working with other project data. After loading is complete, the map automatically updates and becomes available for full viewing and editing. This increases the productivity of specialists analyzing large volumes of urban planning and cadastral information. In the mode, tools for creating and editing objects have been improved. Snapping capabilities to elements of other objects have been expanded, including automatic detection of segment centers and more visual display of snap points. Such mechanisms simplify precise object placement and improve spatial data quality during the preparation of urban planning schemes and plans. Additionally, the reliability of operations with area objects has been increased due to automatic contour preparation before merging them, reducing the likelihood of errors when editing complex territorial structures. To improve the convenience of spatial information analysis, the ability to open multiple windows simultaneously has been implemented. Specialists can compare attributes, coordinates, and other characteristics of various map objects, and also quickly transfer data between them using the clipboard. This is particularly useful when working with interrelated elements of territorial planning and real estate complex objects. Additional improvements have affected mechanisms for displaying , the operation of the geodetic editor, and tools for preparing . Capabilities for generating reports and geodetic construction schemes have been expanded, XML data processing and support for various coordinate systems, including local ones, have been improved. These changes provide more convenient integration of data from state registers and increase the accuracy of spatial information preparation. "ARM of the Urban Planner" provides specialists in territorial planning, land management, and urban development analysis with effective tools for working with spatial data. Increasing the productivity of cartographic information processing, integration with modern geoportals, and improved editing tools allow accelerating the preparation of urban planning documentation and improving the quality of decisions made in territory development management. The new version of the program is available on the website in the Download section.
17.03.2026Bank of spatial data has been supplemented with a map of the self-governing territory of Niue Geoportal has been supplemented with a map of the self-governing territory of Niue, formed according to OpenStreetMap data. To work with the map, you can use the program or other software products of KB "Panorama". The map was led to the modernised classifier of large-scale plans of scale 1: 5 000 (map5000m). Publishing of updates in bank of spatial data is made by using the program of . Publishing contents of bank of spatial data on the geoportal and data access for downloading are implemented by means of . Free maps on the basis of OpenStreetMap data are available for download on the page "Digital maps".
13.03.2026GIS "Panorama" Supports New Types of Geoportals and Map and Scheme Design Tools KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.5.4. In the new version, protocols and data formats of connectable geoportals have been expanded, fast opening of large projects without delays in reading data is ensured, support for topological relationships of objects when editing vector maps has been improved, and viewing of properties and data exchange between multiple map objects simultaneously via dialogs is provided. Settings for forming explanatory labels of object properties on special maps have been supplemented, and the Help system performs a full-text search of sections by keywords among all applied tasks and dialogs. In the geodetic tasks block, tools for geodetic constructions and formation of schemes and reports have been improved; in the cadastral tasks block, tools for forming technical plans, cadastral territory plans, plot location schemes, and others have been supplemented. with tiles in pbf/gpkg format, which contain vector information, semantics (attributes), and metadata for various display scales, has been added. For layers from such geoportals, a multi-scale map is created. The task automatically assigns styles in the form of graphic primitives for each object type. Vector maps can be opened in one project alongside vector maps, remote sensing data, databases, and geoportals operating via other protocols. Opening large vector maps, up to tens of gigabytes in size, containing millions of objects, is performed asynchronously in the background. Progress bars with percentages of map loading in different windows and the amount of data loaded into RAM are displayed in the upper right corner of the program window. During this time, the user can view and edit other maps and data that have already loaded in the window. When the map window is closed, the loading process is automatically interrupted. After large maps finish loading, the window image automatically updates, and the loaded data becomes available for viewing and editing. When editing vector map objects in the , , , modes, the ability to snap to the center of a segment has been added for the "Snap to contour point" operation. When snapping to a contour node, a square marker appears on the screen; when snapping to the center, a diamond-shaped marker appears. This method simplifies the placement of point and vector symbols on the contour of another object. Merging of area objects has been improved. Before merging, automatic contour preparation is performed: removal of duplicate points and coordination of adjacent contour segments, considering the location of starting points of external contours relative to the contours of the attached object. This procedure increases the reliability of merging objects that have overlapping areas. The ability to open multiple "Object Properties" dialogs with different objects in the same map window by pressing Shift and the left mouse button on the map has been added. For each dialog and selected point on the map, browsing objects forward and backward, viewing and editing semantics, metrics, and other object properties are supported. Opening multiple dialogs simultaneously simplifies comparing object semantics and metrics, and copying semantics and coordinates between objects via the clipboard. To establish references between different objects in GUID format, you need to open a second dialog with the desired object and copy its identifier (semantics 32799) via the clipboard. in vector symbols has been improved. A label can contain static text or text formed based on the semantic characteristic of the symbol. To specify a reference to semantics, the "#" sign is used, for example "#9(noname)" - a reference to semantics with code 9; if such semantics is absent, the text in parentheses is displayed – "noname". The new implementation allows specifying codes for alternative semantics in parentheses: "#9(#91|#92|text)". This entry allows first displaying the Own name (code 9); if semantics 9 is absent – the Name in English (code 91) or Name in the national language (code 92). If it is necessary to show units of measurement, the "@" sign is indicated in parentheses, for example: "#296(@)" – show the angle value indicating the degree sign (text "123.4°"); if semantics is absent – empty. When forming text, the ability to select a value from composite semantics has been added. Composite semantics can contain values of several attributes separated by commas: Example of the composite characteristic "Flight route operating conditions" (code 47): "FORWARD,FL120,STD,FL510,STD,OPEN". When specifying a reference to semantics like "#47[2]", the value of the second attribute will be selected (text "FL120"), "#47[4]" – the fourth attribute (text "FL510"). If the object contains the second value of repeated semantics 47 ("BACKWARD,FL130,STD,FL490,STD,OPEN"), then the reference should look like: "#47[4-2]" – the value of the fourth attribute of the second value of semantics 47 (text "FL490"). A full list of service symbols and words used to describe the label format is provided on the page. The Help sections across all tasks based on keywords from the user-entered string has been improved. When selecting the "Partial match" mode, the maximum number of help pages will be found. When selecting "Match from beginning" – help pages containing words starting with the searched string are selected. When selecting "Full match" – pages containing the searched phrase entirely are selected. Help search is invoked by pressing Ctrl+F1 or in the main menu: Help – Search help. Search results are displayed in a web browser window. The left part of the window contains links to found pages and the number of found links. When clicking a link, the found help is displayed in the right part of the web browser window, and matching words are highlighted. The task has been improved. Obsolete mode buttons "Generate summary GPS measurement report" and "Create coordinate catalog from PNT file" have been removed from the editor panel. Their functions are provided by the and "Cadastral works database" modes, respectively. For user convenience, a flag "do not terminate task operation after execution" has been added to the geodetic editor parameters. The flag is used for repeated execution of many different similar geometric constructions. For the "Scheme of geodetic constructions" mode, the creation of a geodetic construction scheme for cases where base stations are located at geodetic network points has been implemented. The formation of the scheme without filling in information about the base station in the dialog is supported. Direction lines "base station - object" are created in the scheme. Points without their own name are now designated as new points in the scheme. In the and modes, the ability to insert information into the report not contained in object semantics has been added. For processing attributes described in the map passport or map classifier, the following markers are supported: #MapName# - Map name, #LayerName# - Layer name, #ObjectName# - Object name, #ObjectKey# - Object key. In the "Creating an object scheme and filling out the report" and "Filling out the report for an object" modes, the ability to select a folder for saving the report has been added. When using a map located in a shared network folder, reports created by all users simultaneously working with the map are generated in this shared folder. To mitigate risks of working with someone else's report or deleting a report, the option to choose a folder for saving the report has been implemented. In the mode, reading the extract for a forest quarter from the State Forest Register (SFR) has been improved. The order of sections containing references to spatial names has been corrected. Support for creating a map in a local coordinate system has been implemented. For this purpose, an LCS parameter file and an LCS matching file are used. The configuration of the matching file can be performed in the dialog of the "Reading CPT and updating the map" mode or in any text editor. The program uses the LCS code or name specified in the XML extract file from the SFR to search for a line in the matching file. For the found line, it determines the LCS name in the parameter file and sets these parameters in the map passport. The new implementation allows both creating separate maps for each extract and updating a single common map. In the mode, the order of reading the composition and names of object keys processed on the source map and applied to the resulting map has been corrected. The ability to log program errors and failures to a diagnostic journal has been added. The task has been improved. In the dialog of the "Reading CPT and updating the map" mode, the fields "File of reference systems parameters" and "Matching file" have been added. The procedure for creating temporary maps for source XML files has been optimized. Previously, a map was created for each LCS specified in the matching file. Now, maps are only created for those LCS names encountered while reading the USRN XML files. For XML files without spatial data, information about the LCS name is absent. To place conditional objects from such files, a map of the "Large-scale plan" type is created. For the mode, the procedure for using information on the area of a real estate object according to documents for multi-contour objects has been changed. Calculation of the sum of areas for all contours has been added. If the AREADOC semantics for a contour is not filled, the area of the object on the map is used. When generating the report, the type of graphic files for the "Location scheme" section has been corrected. When forming XML, the OtherParentCadastralNumbers node is filled from the KADNUM_ENK semantics. For the mode, the algorithm for obtaining the area determination error value has been corrected. In the text report for identified objects, the #DAREA# marker (estimate of discrepancy between calculated area and area recorded in the USRN) has been replaced with #PAREA# (area determination error value). In the dialog of the mode, on the "Basic Information" tab, the CONSTRUCTION_PERIOD semantics has been removed for a single real estate complex. On the "Location" tab, the obsolete "On map" button has been removed. The button name "FIAS address" has been changed to "Select address", as the address is selected from the KB "Panorama" address database, not from the resources of the Federal Address Information System. In the mode, XML formation according to the SchemaParcels_V03 scheme has been implemented. In the "Cadastral works database" mode, when exporting geodetic point information to CSV format, platform analysis has been added to automatically select the file encoding. The new version of the program is available for download in the section.
12.03.2026Bank of spatial data has been supplemented with a map of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico Geoportal has been supplemented with a map of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, formed according to OpenStreetMap data. To work with the map, you can use the program or other software products of KB "Panorama". The map was led to the modernised classifier of large-scale plans of scale 1: 5 000 (map5000m). Publishing of updates in bank of spatial data is made by using the program of .

10.03.2026A digital classifier developed for maintaining the UGISCD of the Republic of Tatarstan Specialists from KB "Panorama" have prepared a digital classifier (isogd_16.rscz) for maintaining the Unified State Information System for Construction Development (UGISCD) for the Republic of Tatarstan. The development of the classifier was based on the requirements of Order No. 27/o of the Ministry of Construction, Architecture, and Housing and Communal Services of the Republic of Tatarstan dated February 22, 2024, "On approval of requirements for the technical preparation of territory planning projects in the Republic of Tatarstan and symbols used in the preparation of territory planning projects in the Republic of Tatarstan." This document regulates the composition of layers, the structure of attributes, and the requirements for the symbology of urban planning documentation objects. The digital classifier is included in the Urban Planning Task Suite and allows for the creation of territorial planning documents, zoning schemes, master plans, and planning and land surveying projects. Information and materials containing spatial (cartographic) data can be uploaded to the UGISCD in various formats. GML/XML and SXF formats are used to transfer data as a single file containing a full set of layers, objects, and their attributes. MID/MIF and SHP formats involve the separate transfer of data for each thematic layer. For the correct formation of the data structure when converting to SHP format, special configuration files isogd_16.rscz.toshp for the Republic of Tatarstan are used. They ensure correct layer names, the composition of attribute tables, and compliance of object codes with the requirements of the relevant UGISCD. The classifier was developed in response to requests from design and operating organizations. The prepared classifiers ensure a unified, normatively agreed-upon approach to maintaining urban planning data in the regions. Additionally, classifiers were previously developed for maintaining the UGISCD of the Krasnodar Territory, Chelyabinsk Region, and the Chuvash Republic. Digital classifiers and the current version of the Urban Planning Task Suite are available for download on the website in the Classifiers and Downloads sections.
06.03.2026Methodological material on modeling and analyzing flood zones has been prepared An article, "Modeling Terrain Flooding", has been published on the KB "Panorama" website. The material provides methodological recommendations on using "Panorama" software products for constructing and analyzing terrain flood zones. In accordance with Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 360 of April 18, 2014, when operationally assessing the flood situation, the boundaries of flood and waterlogging zones established by regional or municipal regulatory acts should be considered. However, the boundaries of such zones are established based on the maximum water level recorded from long-term observations and do not reflect the actual flood situation of the current year. An important stage of modeling is the preparation of a terrain model that meets the requirements of hydrological correctness. Such a model includes a digital elevation model (DEM) and vector objects of the hydrographic network. Open data on terrain relief from and spatial objects of the hydrographic network from are considered as sources of initial data for modeling terrain flooding resulting from high water. The article describes the procedure for downloading and preparing DEMs and hydrographic objects to obtain a hydrologically correct model of the study area. To build models of flood situation development, regional and municipal authorities are recommended to use information from Roshydromet, obtained within the framework of Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 334 of March 24, 1997, "On the procedure for collecting and exchanging information in the Russian Federation in the field of protecting the population and territories from natural and man-made emergencies." To forecast and/or monitor the development of a dangerous hydrometeorological event, modeling of the flood situation development is carried out on dangerous sections of rivers. To construct predicted or actual flood zones using , the article describes modes included in the . The choice of mode depends on the current operational situation and the volume of initial data. If there are several points along the river with measured or predicted water level rise, the most accurate flood zone modeling is provided by the mode. The modeling result is presented as a digital depth model (DDM) for the flooded terrain area. The procedure for using this mode is presented in a video tutorial. To assess the parameters of the predicted flood situation, the number of objects falling into the flood zone at various water level rises is determined. Constructing flood zone boundaries based on the DDM as a vector object can be done using the mode. To search for and select infrastructure objects within the flood zone, it is necessary to use the and modes. The procedure for using these modes is given in the video tutorial "Search and selection". For high-quality preparation of emergency situation development models related to the passage of high water and floods on the territory of a constituent entity of the Russian Federation, it is necessary to carry out: - Advance space imaging of ice cover passage zones to carry out measures to prevent the formation of ice jam phenomena in the spring period; - Advance aerial photography of flood-prone areas to construct orthophotomaps and digital terrain models. The program is designed for automatic processing of aerial photography materials of areas subject to flooding during the spring high water period. The procedure for using the program is discussed in a corresponding video tutorial.
04.03.2026Bank of spatial data has been supplemented with a map of the Commonwealth of the Bahamas Geoportal has been supplemented with a map of the Commonwealth of the Bahamas, formed according to OpenStreetMap data. To work with the map, you can use the program or other software products of KB "Panorama". The map was led to the modernised classifier of large-scale plans of scale 1: 5 000 (map5000m). Publishing of updates in bank of spatial data is made by using the program of . Publishing contents of bank of spatial data on the geoportal and data access for downloading are implemented by means of . Free maps on the basis of OpenStreetMap data are available for download on the page "Digital maps".
02.03.2026In GIS "Panorama" for Linux, tools for automatic recognition and vectorization of objects in terrain images have been expanded KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.4.1 for the operating systems "Astra Linux Special Edition," "Alt Linux," "RED OS," and Ubuntu. The program implements new modes for connecting to the service, and the automation of tools for creating and updating maps using overlay operations has been improved. Tasks for automatic label placement, data import and export in various formats, and maintaining object attribute characteristics have been refined. The functionality for connecting to the "Panorama Vision" service has been expanded. A new mode, , has been added, designed for automatically identifying objects missing from the current digital map. To use the mode, you need to: open a digital terrain map, load satellite or aerial images of the area of interest, switch to the specified mode, specify the type of objects for analysis (e.g., buildings, roads, forest, etc.), select reference (existing) objects on the map, and submit a recognition request. After submitting the request, the "Panorama Vision" service performs: object interpretation on the images; comparison of recognized and reference contours; identification of new or different objects on the resulting map. As a result of the comparison, each object is assigned a semantic attribute with a corresponding display color: red - the object is found in the image but absent from the references (new); orange - the object has significant geometric differences from the reference; green - the object matches the reference; purple - a reference object that does not correspond to any of the found objects. The tolerance for shape deviation between the recognized object and the reference is set in the mode's interface. By default, it is 5 meters. The deviation is calculated using the Hausdorff distance - as the maximum distance from points of one object to the nearest points of the other. The result is saved in the semantics "Maximum deviation of object shape from the reference" (code 31302 in the service.rsc classifier). The mode can be used to identify objects of the following categories: agricultural fields, hydrographic objects (rivers, ponds, lakes, etc.), tall forest, young forest growth, clearcuts, buildings, dirt and paved roads. The "Search for unregistered objects" mode is launched by a button on the toolbar, accessible from the list of applied tasks. This panel also contains a button to open the "Automatic image recognition" dialog, which allows processing terrain images and data from open geoportals - even in the absence of a reference map. To obtain a ready-made vector map, the user needs to double-click on the request line in the "Request List" or open the context menu and select "Open layer". For identified objects, a link to the nearest reference object of the source map is recorded in the semantics "Link to map with addition of object number" (code 32797 in the service.rsc classifier). In the mode, a new algorithm for cutting internal and external intersection areas of an object with a template (cutter) has been implemented. Simple area objects or multipolygons can be selected as the edited object and template. The result is written into simple area objects or multipolygons and contains external or internal areas (areas of intersection with the template). Optionally, the template metric is reconciled with the edited object. Intersection points with the cut object are added to the template contour. Mode options are configured in the context menu activated by right-clicking when the mode is active. The task has been improved. Before placing labels on an open map, the mode for deleting previously created label objects is activated. In the new version, selective deletion is implemented: the ability to delete not all labels, but only those related to objects selected in the "Objects to be labeled" table. When a label is deleted, the semantics of the "Link to label" type are automatically removed from the corresponding objects. This logic allows safely updating labels only for the necessary objects without affecting other map elements. In the dialog, the ability to specify the last row for processing has been added, useful if there are rows at the end of the file whose data should not be transferred to the map. When selecting the file columns to process, reassigning the same coordinate to different columns is blocked. If a column type is assigned that was already assigned to another column, the previous assignment will be cleared. Multiple fields can be assigned the same semantics if the map's classifier has the "Allow repetition" property set for it. In the task, on the "Semantics" tab, the "Description" property has been added. This property allows adding explanations to semantics that require specialized knowledge when filling. To enter a semantic description, you need to press the "Description" button. The user can enter explanatory text or paste from a document, edit, and save it. The presence of a description for a specific semantic is indicated by the color of the icon on the "Description" button: green - description added, gray - description absent. Semantic descriptions can be viewed in dialogs like "Select object", "Editing semantics of object list", and others. Querying semantic descriptions can be useful when maintaining territorial planning schemes, cadastral documents, navigation maps, and others. To control the correctness of semantic characteristic values, the capabilities of templates for allowed values have been expanded in the "Classifier Editor" task. Support for combined templates has been added, consisting of a fixed number of simple or special characters at the beginning of the string, then a variable number of characters from a specified set, and a fixed number of simple or special characters at the end of the string. When viewing attributes in the "Select object" dialog, a line containing an erroneous value will be highlighted in yellow. For a more compact representation of a set of repeating combinations of attributes, compound semantics can be used. Compound semantics contain the values of several other semantics in one line, separated by a delimiter. The template for a compound semantic is set as a list of semantic numbers separated by a delimiter - "!#123,#345...". For example, for the template "!#350, #20, #22, #21, #23, #351", the semantic value could be the string: "FORWARD, FL200, STD, FL510, STD, CLSD", meaning that forward movement at flight level FL200-FL510 is closed. One object can have several such sets of attributes, which will be presented in multiple lines. GIS "Panorama" is a universal Russian geoinformation system. The program is designed for accumulating, storing, automatically processing, and displaying data, results of calculations, and forecasts that have a geospatial reference. GIS "Panorama" contains tools for displaying and processing vector, raster, and matrix maps. The application provides users with tools for solving specialized tasks such as modeling the movement of special objects against a 3D model background, forecasting the consequences of emergencies at hazardous facilities, monitoring aircraft movement, conducting geodetic and topographic work, processing data from GPS/GLONASS navigation devices, printing displayed spatial data to various output devices, and many others. The new version of the program is available for download in the section.
27.02.2026The Digital Maps and Remote Sensing Data Bank allows issuing spatial data in exchange formats used in state information systems KB "Panorama" has developed the version 9.5.0. The new version adds the conversion of vector maps into exchange formats. Information systems for ensuring construction development (ISCD) and regional spatial data funds can receive data in SHP, DXF, MIF/MID formats. Selected datasets are converted on the fly to the specified format. All data in the repository remain in the original format. An export protocol is generated based on the conversion results. Converted data can be obtained via a browser or an exchange server. Added the ability to generate a link to geocoverages for mobile devices and third-party applications. The link is generated in accordance with the TMS (Tile Map Service) specification. Mobile applications can use it to access maps built on spatial data. The data integrity control mode has been optimized for processing a large number of records (over 2 million). The control procedure ensures timely detection of failures, and the automatic recovery procedure helps maintain the system in a working state. Data security is ensured by differentiating access rights based on the security tools included in the operating system. Basic authentication, digest authentication, system authentication (via web server tools), and domain authentication (Kerberos or ActiveDirectory) are supported. Additional security is ensured by using end-to-end authentication when working with the database. Connection to the database occurs with the rights of the user working with the system. The complex is adapted to work on a wide range of operating systems (Astra Linux SE, Ubuntu, RED OS, MS Windows, and others) and architectures (Intel, Elbrus, Baikal). The program is registered in the Russian software registry under number 1862. The Digital Maps and Remote Sensing Data Bank is the basis for building spatial data infrastructure at the federal, regional, and municipal levels, and in corporate information systems. Within a unified geoinformation space, the Digital Maps and Remote Sensing Data Bank implements the collection, storage, quality control, search, and issuance of spatial data in exchange formats. Spatial data selected using the program can be placed for multi-user access on the and published according to international OGC standards WFS, WFS-T, WMS, WMTS, WCS on the application server. Users can access data both from a thin client (using ) and from desktop applications (, ). The Digital Maps and Remote Sensing Data Bank enables the construction of a cloud-based spatial data repository, providing access to this data, and automated generation and updating of geocoverages. The current state of spatial data is displayed using map-schemes maintained for each type of stored data: vector maps, remote sensing data, elevation matrices, and terrain models. It ensures remote placement of spatial data sets into file storage, versioning of stored sets, updating data availability map-schemes, automated collection and generation of metadata, and generation and updating of geocoverages. Automated collection and generation of metadata is performed according to standards ISO 19115:2003, Geographic information - Metadata, and ISO/TS 19139, Geographic information - Metadata - XML schema implementation. Reduced-size copies of data images are automatically generated, and file checksums and data set completeness are checked. Spatial data is placed into file storage with integrity verification and control of data structure and content. Work results are logged and entered into the metadata database. Automatic backup of metadata and the spatial data repository with integrity control and data recovery is provided. A multilingual interface is supported. The "Spatial Data Bank" portal demonstrates the capabilities for organizing the storage, accounting, and issuance of vector maps, remote sensing data, elevation matrices, and terrain models. The portal contains vector maps in SXF format, generated from open sources (OpenStreetMap, VMap0). The spatial data includes maps of subjects of the Russian Federation, countries, and cities near and far abroad. A total of over 450 vector maps and over 6,700 matrix datasets with a total volume of over 250 GB. KB "Panorama" specialists weekly update and maintain the information composition on the portal. All published data is distributed free of charge under a free license. The new version of the program is available for download on the page.
26.02.2026"Agronomist's Workstation" simplifies the preparation of digital field maps and agrochemical data KB "Panorama" has developed "Agronomist's Workstation" version 15.5.3. The new version expands the tools for creating and editing objects on the map. Now, when preparing field plans and schemes, land reclamation projects, or cadastral boundary maps of land plots, the agronomist can input lengths directly in millimeters on the map, significantly simplifying the creation of drawings without unnecessary calculations. When loading spatial data from external sources in Shapefile format, the system automatically checks the compliance of the loaded object with the selected type in the classifier, eliminating identification errors at an early stage. In the program, special attention is paid to building logical connections between objects and data integrity control. In the dialog, the ability to create linked meta-objects using GUID-type references has been added. This means that an agronomist can not only indicate the presence of equipment in a field but also immediately create its card with a full set of parameters, whether it's a well, pumping station, or weather sensor. This approach forms a unified data structure for the farm, where each element has its own detailed information and is closely linked to the location. Data import and export mechanisms have been significantly revised. When loading tabular data from , users have access to "fine" settings: you can now specify the last line for processing, excluding technical information from the end of the file. Furthermore, if repetition is allowed for semantics in the classifier, the same characteristics can be flexibly assigned to different fields within a single load. To exchange data with external information systems, formats has been improved. The new style saving function allows exporting point objects along with their graphical representation in accordance with the international SLD (Styled Layer Descriptor) standard, simplifying the integration of field maps into reports and presentations without loss of visual informativeness. Added control mechanisms, such as the option to insert objects only on the current map, prevent accidental changes in base maps and adjacent layers, which is especially important when working collaboratively with data. "Agronomist's Workstation" is a specialized tool for agriculture that helps agronomists work more efficiently with spatial and analytical data, save time on routine operations, and make more informed decisions aimed at increasing productivity and sustainability of farming. The new version of the software package is available on the website in the Downloads section.

20.02.2026GIS WebService SE enables information transfer to the National Spatial Data System from GIS of federal, regional, and municipal purposes KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.15.0. In the new version of the service, in accordance with the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 07.06.2022 No. 1040 and the Order of Rosreestr dated 20.02.2024 No. П/0031/24, data exchange with the National Spatial Data System (NSDS) has been implemented. GIS WebService SE can transmit information to the NSDS on urban planning activities, data on natural, artificial, and other spatial objects, boundaries and zones (zones with special conditions for territory use, territorial zones, public easements, cultural heritage sites, agricultural lands, forestry boundaries, and other types of data). GIS WebService SE, together with and , automates the process of creating, accumulating, and transmitting spatial data from GIS of federal, regional, and municipal purposes to the NSDS. The service establishes correspondences between layers and categories, semantics and attributes, object types and subcategories of the NSDS and the regional GIS. The program monitors the relevance of data layers published on the service and in the NSDS, and performs data synchronization. In case of changes, analysis and updates are carried out, as well as the addition, deletion of objects and attributes. The program implements an output of a data loading/updating log. It describes the main stages of interaction with the NSDS and provides information about the processed objects, and also stores information about errors that occur when loading objects. The new version enables viewing the archive of data loading logs. GIS WebService SE supports all international standards (OGC WFS, WFS-T, WMS, WMTS, WCS, WPS), which are used to transmit and display spatial data. The program implements the ability to issue tiles in any user or local coordinate system. The service supports the OpenAPI 3.0 specification and RESTAPI methods.

16.02.2026GIS WebServer SE expands map data export capabilities KB "Panorama" has developed version 7.3.0 for Astra Linux, ALT SP, RED OS, Ubuntu, and MS Windows operating systems. The new version adds a map export manager, improves tools for creating and editing point objects, and refines the administration module. The program implements an export manager that provides group downloading of layers as an archive. Data is unloaded in the selected format and in the coordinate system specified by the user. For point objects, the ability to set the size of a custom symbol has been added when placing on the map and when configuring publication templates. The editing of geometry for objects that do not require an elevation component has been optimized. The interface of the "Cartogram" component has been improved. The algorithm for automatically determining gradation ranges has been optimized, the functionality of the pie chart has been improved, and the ease of working with thematic data has been increased. The display of layers when moving the map is now performed independently - as images are received from the server, which increases the smoothness and responsiveness of the interface. The processing of long-running search-by-area queries has been improved. The ability to interrupt query execution directly on the server has been added. In the administration module, the user interface for managing domain users and groups has been improved, and data backup capabilities for PostgreSQL DBMS have been expanded. A separate page for restoring access to the database has been added. GIS WebServer SE is used in building closed corporate systems to ensure the protection of data classified as secret or trade secrets.

02.02.2026Workstation of Cadastral Engineer: Enhanced tools for preparing electronic documents for cadastral registration of capital construction projects KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.5.3. The new version features a mode that provides the formation of electronic XML documents and text reports, taking into account the type of real estate object for which the technical plan is prepared. It supports work with the following object types: building, structure, unfinished construction project, premises, parking space, and a single real estate complex. This mode combines the capabilities of outdated technical plan formation modes and is cross-platform for Windows and Linux operating systems. Preparing a map is an important stage of forming a technical plan; its content depends on the type of real estate object. The survey.v6 classifier has been updated for map maintenance, including the necessary objects and attributes described in the "Technical Plan" layer. Input and editing of technical plan information is carried out in the "Technical Plan" dialog, and source information is requested from cadastral map objects and the database of cadastral works. The data is organized as a hierarchical tree corresponding to the sections of the technical plan. Auxiliary dialogs have been developed for entering and editing composite attributes of the technical plan: "Document", "Location within a real estate object", "Characteristics of all premises, parking spaces located in a building, structure". The procedure for obtaining information about parts has been changed, considering the type of real estate object. For buildings and structures, two types of parts are provided: with coordinate description of location and with textual description of location. For premises, only parts with a textual description of location are provided. The text report of the technical plan is created in DOCX format based on templates of the established form and content in accordance with the requirements of the Rosreestr order dated 03.15.2022 No. P/0082 "On establishing the form of the technical plan, requirements for its preparation and the composition of contained information". Formation of the electronic XML document is performed in accordance with the XSD schema TP_v07_R03. A mode has been developed, intended for automated placement of geodetic measurement results on a map. The mode is developed considering current regulatory requirements for schemes of geodetic constructions and replaces two outdated modes: "Creating a scheme of base stations on an object in a separate window" and "Generate a consolidated GPS measurement protocol". The dialog of the mode provides control over the composition of graphic elements placed on the map, considering the number and location of base stations. Typically, the following objects are placed on the scheme: geodetic points, base stations, direction to the base station, contour of the cadastral object, existing and new boundary points of the object, direction to boundary points, boundary segments, explanatory labels. The mode button is included in the "Preparation of schemes and drawings" group. The mode has been refined. The composition of attributes of cadastral objects has been clarified in accordance with the data of the "National Spatial Data System" geoportal. The order of analyzing geoportal layers for the corresponding request of cadastral information has been changed. Information about capital construction objects is requested first, then about land plots, followed by territorial zones and other cadastral objects. The mode has been updated regarding the maintenance of information about geodetic points. A "Save geopoints to CSV file" button has been added. Data saving is performed considering the filter set in the dialog on the "Geopoints" tab. When loading geodetic network points from CSV, analysis of the data string format has been added for automatic reading of information about geodetic points in both abbreviated and full sets of source data fields. The mode has been refined to obtain information about parts of premises and information about the inclusion of a cadastral object in the register of cultural heritage objects. For automatic filling of the attribute "1. Information about the territory of complex cadastral works" of the "Explanatory note" section of the text report, processing of a new attribute "Designation of the territory of complex cadastral works" has been added. For this purpose, changes have been made to the survey.v6.rsc classifier, the "Attributes of a cadastral object" dialog, and the procedure for filling the DOCX text report. Now, when forming a text report, the attribute, in addition to cadastral quarter numbers, additionally records the content of semantics with the key CCW_DESCRIPTION. A new mode has been developed, which combined the capabilities of the "Construction of a linear structure profile" and "Construction of a route profile" dialogs. The updated mode allows for the construction of profiles for various types of linear structures (highway, railway, power line, pipeline, and others). Depending on the type of linear structure, additional design elements are placed on the profile scheme: stationing, angles, distances, information about curves and straight sections, and others. Tools for managing the appearance of the scheme have been expanded. The ability to divide the scheme into printable pages and insert prepared stamps (document main inscriptions) and approval signatures into the designed pages has been implemented. Profile construction is implemented in case of partial or complete absence of a height matrix (if the object has 3D coordinates), in case of absence of 3D coordinates - formation of a straight line with the creation of all possible design tables. A check for exceeding the route boundaries when forming the curve table has been added. Saving profile settings information to a file for initializing the print dialog has been implemented. The modes "Save selected to one *.csv file", "Save selected to several *.csv files", and "Save selected stations to one *.xyh file" have been replaced by one new mode . The "Report Generation" dialog has been refined so that actions with map objects can be performed in parallel with the open dialog. The parameters of buttons and tables have been changed in the scheme and report setup dialog. The dialog of the mode and the dialog have been refined, adding the ability to load measurement files in Excel format. In the modes "Calculation of object intersection", "Viewing object intersection", and "Control of object intersection", processing of lists from has been added, the display of errors on the screen during calculations has been removed, and control of object localization when adding them to lists for processing has been added. The new version of the program is available for download in the section.
30.01.2026Panorama Vision complex recognizes and classifies vehicles on satellite and aerial images KB "Panorama" has developed the Automatic Recognition and Vectorization Complex version 1.9.0. The new version features a mode for detecting and classifying vehicles on satellite and aerial images. The mode is intended for working with ultra-high resolution terrain images (0.3–0.6 meters/pixel) and allows detecting transport objects of the following types: passenger cars, pickup trucks, trucks and buses, construction and engineering equipment (including bulldozers and excavators), sea and river vessels, airplanes. The recognition is based on a neural network model with CenterNet architecture, optimized for detecting point objects when analyzing dense scenes. The model allows accurately predicting the coordinates of the centers of transport objects, even if their size in the image is only 10-30 pixels. Furthermore, the applied neural network algorithms help separate closely located objects, avoiding "merging" of cars in parking lots or ships in a port. The new mode opens up possibilities for automating the following tasks: - Monitoring the road situation and traffic density. - Analysis of parking lot occupancy, logistics terminals, and industrial sites. - Inventory of transport and equipment at construction and infrastructure facilities. - Control of port activity and shipping. - Detection and registration of aircraft, assessment of apron occupancy at airfields. Based on the results of image processing, the "Panorama Vision" complex generates a vector map with recognized objects. Starting from service version 1.9.0, the panvision.rsc classifier is used to create objects. Vehicles are placed on the map as point objects of corresponding types. The confidence value of the neural network model prediction is recorded in the "Prediction confidence" semantics (code 963 in the panvision.rsc classifier). In addition to vehicles, the "Panorama Vision" complex allows detecting objects of categories such as: agricultural fields, hydrography objects (rivers, ponds, lakes, etc.), tall forest, forest growth, clearings, buildings, dirt and asphalt roads. To use the new features of the service, it is necessary to run the task "Automatic recognition of images" from the main menu of : Launch applications - Automatic object creation - Automatic recognition and vectorization complex - Automatic recognition of images. The density of traffic flows, parking lot occupancy, and logistics terminals after processing images in "Panorama Vision" can be visualized using the mode, available in the . The current version of GIS "Panorama" is available for download in the section.
28.01.2026In the GIS "Panorama" increased automation of map creation/updating and formation of cadastral documents KB "Panorama" has developed . The new version enhances the automation of tools for creating and updating maps using overlay operations and automatic recognition and vectorization of objects based on remote sensing data. Tools for automatic label placement, data import and export in various formats have been refined, support for the AIXM aeronautical chart format has been improved. In the complex of geodetic tasks, new tools have been developed for building route and linear structure profiles, preparing schemes of geodetic constructions, technical plans for real estate objects, and other types of documents. In the mode, a new algorithm for cutting internal and external areas of intersection of an object with a template (cutter) has been implemented. Both the editable object and the template can be simple area objects or multipolygons. The result is written to simple area objects or multipolygons and contains external or internal areas (areas of intersection with the template). Optionally, the template's metric is aligned with the editable object. In this case, intersection points with the object being cut are added to the template's contour. Setting mode options is performed in the context menu when activating the mode by clicking the right mouse button. When creating a new object by coordinates from a file, support for the has been added. Before loading, the correspondence between the type of data being loaded and the type (character of localization) of the object selected in the classifier is checked. An option "Insertion of control points only on the current map" has been added, which prohibits making unauthorized changes in maps added to the editable one. In the mode, the ability to enter the length of the created segment in mm on the map has been added to simplify the creation of schematic drawings and plans. When creating new objects or editing semantics of existing objects in the dialog, the ability to immediately create linked meta-objects via GUID-type links has been added. For this, in the , it is necessary to specify the types of related objects that a specific semantics-link type can refer to. For example, in the object "Radio navigation aid" there can be several instances of semantics-links to objects "Radio navigation equipment". When creating the "Radio navigation aid" object, in the Semantics tab, right-clicking on the semantics-link to equipment selects the "Create related object" menu item to select the equipment type and its parameters. This mode simplifies the creation of a set of subordinate meta-objects, entering their attributes, and establishing links between objects. Functions for automatic recognition and vectorization of objects on terrain images via connection to the service have been expanded. A mode has been added, intended for automatic detection of objects missing from the current digital map. To use the mode, it is necessary to: open a digital terrain map in GIS "Panorama", load satellite or aerial images of the area of interest, switch to the "Search for unregistered objects" mode, specify the object type for analysis (e.g., buildings, roads, forest, etc.), select reference (existing) objects on the map, submit a recognition request. After submitting the request, the "Panorama Vision" service performs: object interpretation on the images; comparison of recognized and reference contours; highlighting new or differing objects on the resulting map. As a result of the comparison, each object is assigned semantics with a corresponding display color: red – object found on the image but absent among references (new); orange – object has significant geometric differences from the reference; green – object matches the reference; purple – reference object that does not correspond to any found object. The tolerance for shape deviation between the recognized object and the reference is set in the mode interface. By default, it is 5 meters. Deviation is calculated using the Hausdorff metric – as the maximum distance from points of one object to the nearest points of another. The result is saved in the semantics "Maximum shape deviation of the object from the reference" (code 31302 in the service.rsc classifier). The mode can be used to detect objects of the following categories: agricultural fields, hydrography objects (rivers, ponds, lakes, etc.), tall forest, forest growth, clearings, buildings, dirt and asphalt roads. The "Search for unregistered objects" mode is launched by a button on the toolbar, available from the list of applied tasks. This toolbar also contains a button for opening the dialog, which allows processing terrain images and data from open geoportals – even in the absence of a reference map. To obtain a ready vector map, the user needs to double-click the request line in the "Request List" or call the context menu and select "Open layer". For detected objects, a link to the nearest reference object of the source map is recorded in the semantics "Link to map with addition of object number" (code 32797 in the service.rsc classifier). The "Automatic label placement" task has been refined. Before placing labels on the open map, the mode for deleting previously created label-objects is activated. The new version implements selective deletion: the ability to delete not all labels, but only those related to objects selected in the "Objects to be labeled" table. When deleting a label, the semantics of the "Link to label" type are automatically removed from the corresponding objects. This logic allows safely updating labels only for needed objects without affecting other map elements. In the dialog, the ability to specify the last line for processing has been added if there are lines at the end of the file whose data does not need to be transferred to the map. When selecting processed file columns, repeated assignment of a column to different coordinates is blocked. When assigning a column type that has already been assigned to another column, the previous assignment is reset. Several fields can be assigned the same semantics if the property "Repetition is allowed" is set for it in the map classifier. The task of has been refined. A new mode for saving the appearance (styles) of objects has been added. In this mode, the image of point objects is saved as a picture in the output file. Data is saved to GML format in accordance with the OGC 02-070 version 1.0.0 standard – SLD (Styled Layer Descriptor). In the task, a new mode has been developed, intended for automated placement of geodetic measurement results on a map. The mode is developed considering current regulatory requirements for schemes of geodetic constructions and replaces two outdated modes: "Creating a scheme of base stations on an object in a separate window" and "Generate a consolidated GPS measurement protocol". The dialog of the mode provides control over the composition of graphic elements placed on the map, considering the number and location of base stations. Typically, the following objects are placed on the scheme: geodetic points, base stations, direction to the base station, contour of the cadastral object, existing and new boundary points of the object, direction to boundary points, boundary segments, explanatory labels. The dialog has been refined so that actions with map objects can be performed in parallel with the open dialog. In the modes "Calculation of object intersection", "Viewing object intersection", and "Control of object intersection", processing of lists from has been added. A new mode has been developed. The mode integrates the capabilities of the "Construction of a linear structure profile" and "Construction of a route profile" dialogs. The updated mode allows for the construction of profiles for various types of linear structures (highway, railway, power line, pipeline, and others). Depending on the type of linear structure, additional design elements are placed on the profile scheme: stationing, angles, distances, information about curves and straight sections, and others. Tools for managing the appearance of the scheme have been expanded. The ability to divide the scheme into printable pages and insert prepared stamps (document main inscriptions) and approval signatures into the designed pages has appeared. Profile construction is implemented in case of partial or complete absence of a height matrix (if the object has 3D coordinates), in case of absence of 3D coordinates - formation of a straight line with the creation of all possible design tables. A check for exceeding the route boundaries when forming the curve table has been added. Saving profile settings information to a file for initializing the print dialog has been implemented. In the task, a new mode has been developed, combining the capabilities of outdated technical plan formation modes. The new mode provides collection of information from the map and formation of a technical plan as a text report and an electronic XML document for a building, structure, unfinished construction project, premises, parking space, and a single real estate complex. Input and editing of technical plan information is carried out in the "Technical Plan" dialog, and source information is requested from cadastral map objects and the database of cadastral works. Preparing a map is an important stage of forming a technical plan; its content depends on the type of real estate object and must include the necessary map objects, described in the survey.v6 classifier in the "Technical Plan" layer. The left part of the dialog contains a tree of sections, and the right part displays information for the selected tree node. Auxiliary dialogs have been developed for entering and editing composite attributes of the technical plan: "Document", "Location within a real estate object", "Characteristics of all premises, parking spaces located in a building, structure". For buildings and structures, two types of parts are provided: with coordinate description of location and with textual description of location. For premises, only parts with a textual description of location are provided. The text report of the technical plan is created in DOCX format based on templates of the established form and content. Report templates contain markers that the program replaces with attribute values. Formation of the electronic XML document is performed in accordance with the TP_v07_R03 schema. The mode has been refined. The composition of attributes of cadastral objects has been clarified in accordance with the data of the "National Spatial Data System" geoportal. For automatic filling of the attribute "1. Information about the territory of complex cadastral works" of the "Explanatory note" section of the "Territory Map-Plan" text report, processing of a new attribute "Designation of the territory of complex cadastral works" has been added. For this purpose, changes have been made to the survey.v6.rsc classifier, the "Attributes of a cadastral object" dialog, and the procedure for filling the DOCX text report. Now, when forming a text report, the attribute, in addition to cadastral quarter numbers, additionally records the content of semantics with the key CW_DESCRIPTION. The mode has been refined to obtain information about parts of premises. Reading data of the CulturalHeritage node "Information about the inclusion of a real estate object in the unified state register of objects of cultural heritage (historical and cultural monuments) of the peoples of the Russian Federation" and saving information into several semantics of the object has been added. Previously, information was saved in the CULTURAL semantics as a composite string; now the following semantics are used: "Sign of inclusion in the register of cultural heritage objects" (CULTURALHERITAGE), "Registration number of cultural heritage object" (REGNUM), "Type of cultural heritage object (list)" (OBJCULTURAL), "Name of cultural heritage object" (NAMECULTURAL), "Details of decisions of the Government of the Russian Federation, bodies for the protection of cultural heritage objects on the inclusion of a real estate object in the unified state register of objects of cultural heritage (historical and cultural monuments) of the peoples of the Russian Federation or on classifying a real estate object as identified objects of cultural heritage subject to state protection" (CULT_DECISION). The mode has been updated regarding the maintenance of information about geodetic points. A "Save geopoints to CSV file" button has been added. Data saving is performed considering the filter set in the dialog on the "Geopoints" tab. When loading geodetic network points from CSV, analysis of the data string format has been added for automatic reading of information about geodetic points in both abbreviated and full sets of source data fields. The new version of the program is available for download in the section.

22.01.2026A training video on designing departure routes in the Complex for preparing aeronautical information documents for GIS "Panorama" has been prepared Specialists from KB "Panorama" have prepared a video tutorial on the work of the mode of the applied task "Flight Scheme Design" in . A standard instrument departure route is an established route for flight under instrument flight rules (IFR), connecting an aerodrome or runway with a designated main point, usually on a given ATS route, where the en-route flight stage begins. A departure scheme is established and published for each runway of an aerodrome from which instrument departures are anticipated. It should be designed for all categories of aircraft where possible. Where departures are limited to specific categories, corresponding parameters are indicated on the departure chart. The video tutorial demonstrates the formation of a departure route scheme without vectoring along the track line. The dialog form consists of a panel with departure schemes, which allows selecting the scheme type. Common fields ("General departure parameters" and "End of zone") applied to all routes are located below. Under them are individual settings that change depending on the selected scheme. First, the base map on which the scheme will be placed is selected. The map must be editable and with visibility enabled. After setting the scheme parameters, interactive placement of a group of objects on the map is performed. With the "Attach scheme" flag set, the placement of the departure scheme is performed with attachment to the threshold. The threshold point is set during the initial setup of the DB mode task. Clearing the "Attach scheme" flag allows placing the scheme at an arbitrary point. This video material will be useful for specialists involved in creating and updating aeronautical data, preparing documents for flight schemes, and ensuring the functioning of the air traffic management system. Educational materials can be found in the section.

16.01.2026Training material on creating and displaying holding patterns in the Aeronautical Information Document Preparation Complex for GIS "Panorama" has been prepared Specialists at KB "Panorama" have prepared a video tutorial on the mode within the application task in . The reviewed mode is designed for plotting a list of holding patterns onto an aeronautical chart. The video tutorial demonstrates the result of displaying holding patterns on a map. The basis for displaying standard holding patterns is a user map included in the "En-Route Chart" aeronautical chart. For flight patterns within holding areas, the "racetrack" pattern symbol is used. The holding pattern database is populated using the "Enter Holding Patterns" dialog. The dialog contains a list of holding patterns in airport areas and on air routes. The list does not include patterns for which information about the base point is missing. When the "In Airport Areas" or "On Air Routes" options are set, the lists of holding patterns will be generated according to the selected filter. Maneuvers of an old pattern are replaced by new ones, and maneuvers excluded from the database are not modified and require manual deletion after analysis. This video material will be useful for specialists involved in creating and updating aeronautical data, preparing documents for flight procedures, and ensuring the functioning of the air traffic management system. The training materials can be found in the section.
13.01.2026A digital classifier for maintaining the Urban Planning GIS of the Chuvash Republic has been developed Specialists at KB "Panorama" have prepared a digital classifier for maintaining the State Information System for Supporting Urban Planning Activities (ГИСОГД) of the Chuvash Republic. The basis for developing the classifier was the . This document regulates the composition of layers, the structure of attributes, and the requirements for the symbology of urban planning documentation objects. Digital classifiers are included in the Complex of Urban Planning Tasks and allow for the formation of territorial planning documents, zoning schemes, master plans, land-use planning and land surveying projects. Information and materials containing spatial (cartographic) data can be loaded into the Urban Planning GIS in various formats. The GML/XML and SXF formats are used for transferring data as a single file containing a full set of layers, objects, and their attributes. The MID/MIF and SHP formats imply separate data transfer for each thematic layer. To correctly form the data structure when converting to the SHP format, special configuration files isogd_21.rscz.toshp for the Chuvash Republic are used. They ensure correct layer names, the composition of attribute tables, and compliance of object codes with the requirements of the respective regional Urban Planning GIS. The development of classifiers was carried out in response to requests from design and operational organizations. The prepared classifiers ensure a unified, normatively agreed approach to maintaining urban planning data in the regions. Digital classifiers and the current version of the Complex of Urban Planning Tasks are available for download on the website in the Classifiers and sections.
08.01.2026Bank of spatial data has been supplemented with a map of the Republic of Adygea Specialists from KB "Panorama" have prepared and placed a map of the Republic of Adygea on the geoportal.
