In KB "Panorama" the "Workstation of geologist" version 13.5.2 has been developed. "Workstation of geologist" has been created on base of GIS Panorama Mini and the Complex of geological tasks and provides processing of results engineering and geological researches in order to obtain the necessary data for the designing, construction and operation of real estate. The program contains the necessary components for the analysis of engineering-geological conditions, including relief, geological structure, soil properties, hydrogeological conditions, hazardous geological processes.

"Panorama" software meets the requirements of regulatory documents SP 47.133330.2012 (SNiP 11-02-96), SP 126.13330.2012 (SNiP 3.01.03.-84), GOST 21.508-93, GOST R ISO 9127-94, GOST R ISO / IEC 12119-2000, which is confirmed by a certificate of compliance of software products in construction with the requirements of the State Construction Committee of Russia "On certification of software". To represent conventional special symbols on the map, reflecting engineering and geological conditions, a graphic library has been developed that corresponds to GOST 21.302-96.

Integral part of the engineering-geological report are the engineering-geological columns and cuts. On the basis of these documents, together with the physical and mechanical properties of soils, the main design decisions are made (choice of the type of foundation, preparation of the basis and the need for reinforcement). "Workstation of geologist" provides input of data from the journal of engineering-geological researches, conducting a map of points of studying the geological structure (selection of monoliths for laboratory researches), creation of matrixes of a relief, matrixes of geological layers and matrixes of groundwater level. The constructed matrixes are used for a comprehensive analysis of engineering-geological conditions by means of three-dimensional visualization and automatic creation of columns at points specified by the operator or cuts along a specified line.

For calculations and analysis the coordinate description of objects is used. "Workstation of geologist" supports the 2nd, 3rd and 4th description of the metrics of objects. If the third coordinate always determines the height, then the fourth coordinate can be interpreted in different ways, depending on the task being solved. For example, when importing navigation data in GPX format, a linear object (track) with a four-dimensional metric (latitude, longitude, altitude, time) is formed on the map. And when processing navigation data in the NMEA-0183 format, a linear object with a four-dimensional metric (latitude, longitude, altitude, speed) is formed on the map. To display linear objects with a four-dimensional metric, the program uses programmable conventional symbols, where the fourth dimension can be displayed in the color of a line segment, taking into account the value falling within the specified range or using another algorithm.

The new version of the program is available on the website in the Download section.

In KB "Panorama" the GIS "Panorama" version 13.5.2 has been developed. In the new version, the task of connecting geoportals for viewing information about objects at a given point of the image has been improved. If several layers from different geoportals are open, then the request is made to the current layer specified in the dialog. Information about objects is requested by the geodetic coordinates of a point, is transmitted and displayed in the form of an html page, the content of which depends on the selected geoportal. Support of geoportal via WFS protocol was improved. When forming a cartographic representation of layers, it is possible dynamically to create a classifier (RSC) according to the requested xsd-scheme, taking into account the composition of layers, objects and their attributes. In accordance with the list of layers selected by the operator, objects containing geometry and semantics (attributes) are put on the map. For the convenience of selecting layers, a search by name has been added in the dialog of connecting WFS geoportals.

In the "Lists of objects" task, the modes of intersection search have been improved. The mode "Crossing and touch" has been added which carries out searches for pairs of objects which are crossed or touched. The "Crossing" mode has been changed - it searches for pairs of objects that, when intersected, form the inner and outer parts (relative to a closed contour).

In the "Undo operation" dialog of the "Map Editor" task, the possibilities of filtering transaction log records have been expanded. When the option Operations with selected number is enabled, the window for entering the object number becomes available. The transaction tree is refilled with those records in which the specified object participated.

The task "Raster Editor" has been improved. The "Signature" mode has been added into the toolbar. The new mode allows you to create a signature on the raster image with the pen color of any font installed in the system.

The task "Map Legend" has been improved. On the "Map" bookmark the information line "Parameters" has been added in which the number of sheets and objects is indicated. On bookmarks "Rasters", "Matrixes" in parametres there is displayed the information on the permission of editing, copying and printing, a measurement unit of a matrix and other data.

In the "Navigator 3D" task, the mode of loading models from Collada (DAE) and OBJ formats into the DB3D database of three-dimensional tiles has been supplemented. To automate the input of the parameters of the coordinate system and an anchor point of the loaded model, the ability has been added to process the metadata XML-file, which is created by the manufacturer of the original 3D model. The choice of the metadata file is performed by clicking the "From metadata" button in the "Model geographic location coordinates" section of the converter interface.

In the task "Import files of waypoints, routes, tracks OziExplorer" there is added a saving into the metric of the object of the fourth dimension - date and time. The time characteristic is entered into the M-dimension in double format. The date and time of the fixation of the point coordinates are read from the corresponding fields of the waypoint files (.wpt) and tracklog files (.plt) of OziExplorer.

In the tasks of importing files of waypoints, routes, tracks for OziExplorer and Magellan Explorist there is added a saving into the metric of the object of the fourth dimension - date and time. Data is read from the corresponding fields in the waypoint files and track log files. In the task "GPS\GLONASS Monitor" a saving into the metric of object of the fourth dimension - date and time. When loading waypoints from the device to fill in the fourth dimension of the object stored on the map, the date and time of determining the coordinates are requested from the GPS\GLONASS receiver. When using the task in the "Almanac" mode (determining the coordinates of the location in real time), the system date and time of the computer are taken.

In the dialog "Open data from GIS Server" the ability has been added to open a list of datasets selected with the mouse and the CTRL and SHIFT keys, or included into the selected nodes of any level. To work with large lists of open datasets, there is added a search for datasets in the tree by name when pressing CTRL+F.

For the task "Formation of outborder decoration", the classifiers and templates of out-of-frame bordering have been improved. Topographic fonts have been added to the frm10000.rsc classifier. For scales 1: 200,000, 1: 500,000, 1: 1,000,000, the following objects have been corrected in the classifiers: frame lines, labels of geographic coordinates, labels of squares numbers. In templates of out-of-frame bordering (frm files) for scales from 1:10 000 to 1: 1 000 000, object codes for elements of bordering have been corrected, distances between the map frame and other elements of bordering have been clarified. In files 500000.frm, 1000000.frm the element "Security classification" has been added.

Dialog "Appear license" has been improved, it is intended for customizing the type of license and parameters for connecting to the network license. In the lower left corner of dialog the button "?" has been added, which causes a window "License Information". This window contains information about the type of the current license, its number, and also the list of software products available for this license.

The new version of the program is available for download in the Download section.

Technical support of GIS "Panorama" version 12 ends on December 1st, 2020.

In KB "Panorama" the Complex of solving aeronautical tasks version 7.5 for the GIS "Operator" SE version 13, OS Astra Linux SE (release "Smolensk") has been developed. In the new version the possibility of processing and storage of aviation messages has been added. It will allow the user of air space to form bases of messages in the own interests. The complex implements the function of analysis and automatic processing of NOTAM messages. It allows to form and analyze the base of restrictions in air space in a graphic form. The use of the NOTAM database allows the operator to create maps of time restrictions, activated zones and closed sections of routes for a certain region in a given period of time. This will increase the efficiency of using the air navigation situation for flight operations. In the task "Flight procedures construction" the possibility has been added for forming the report of intermediate data of calculations of inverse schemes.

The complex of solving aeronautical tasks is intended for creating and maintaining a database of aeronautical information, formation of aeronautical maps, designing the flight routes for aircraft, exchanging data with other information systems. The program allows to carry out calculations of routes of flights, to analyze objects of airdrome and the surrounding area for their impact on air traffic safety.

The main source of aeronautical information is the aeronautical data base, created on the basis of the AICM (Aeronautical Information Conceptual Model) model, with additions for storing planning information and results of route design. The model is recommended by the international organization for air traffic planning and coordination "Eurocontrol".

The new version of the program is available for download on the Download page.

In KB "Panorama" the GIS Panorama Mini version 13.5.1 has been developed. In the new version the algorithm for displaying thin lines and small circles with thickness and radius close to one pixel has been changed. Lines are displayed more thinly that improves the readability of the digital vector map.

A new view of programmable signs has been added for demonstrating the display of linear objects with a four-dimensional metric. Measurement at a point can be displayed in the color of a line segment, taking into account whether the value falls within the specified range or by another algorithm. In the example on the map \Data\shape the degree of exceeding the specified speed limit is displayed (up to +0 km/h - green, up to + 20 km/h - yellow, over - red). The speed limit is read from the semantics of object 32212 Movement speed. The current speed at the point is read from the fourth measurement at the point.

To increase the clarity of the overview image of the territory, GIS Panorama Mini applies the multiscale objects changing the view of the contour when changing the display scale.

A support of the four-dimensional metric of objects for recording into coordinates of a measurement point of an arbitrary value in the form of a floating point number or integers has been added. When importing and exporting SHP, a metric containing fields X, Y, Z (height) and M (dimension) are processed. The specification of the SXF format in a binary and text (TXF) form has been expanded. Support of 4-dimensional metric of objects has been added when importing and exporting SXF and TXF formats.

In the task "Select object" the displaying, editing and deleting of four-dimensional metrics of objects on the "Metrics" bookmark has been added. This characteristic has an integer or real value representation. Saving of four-dimensional metric into file of TXT format has been added. Displaying complex objects with a large number of contours and points in the dialog has been accelerated.

The "Map Editor" for creating objects with the input of coordinates from the keyboard has been improved. There is added a support for input of four-dimensional coordinates with measurements at a point as a floating point number or a pair of integer values.

In the new version in the task of importing navigation data in GPX format when recording a track, a linear object with a four-dimensional metric (latitude, longitude, height, time) is formed on the map. The time field is recorded for each point in the form of two 4-byte integers YYYYMMDD and HHMMSS. The values are selected from the "time" node, for example: 2020-09-01T17:45:07Z.

The task of importing navigation data of NMEA-0183 format has been improved. When recording a track, a linear object with a four-dimensional metric (latitude, longitude, height, speed) is formed on the map. The speed field is recorded as a floating point number in km/h. The value is selected from the velocity field and converted from knots to km/h (multiplied by 1.852).

Support of multipoint object has been added. A multipoint object consists of a set of points with two-dimensional, three-dimensional, or four-dimensional coordinates and common attributes (semantics). A multipoint object is displayed as dot signs placed at each point of the object's metric.

In the dialog "Data list of map" the mode "Set the border by map objects for a group of heights, layers and qualities" has been added. It allows you to set a border for each matrix according to the object assigned to it from the selected objects on the map. It is possible to set a border for one matrix by a multi-contour object formed from selected objects. The mode also allows you to set a border for all matrixes of the group by one selected object. The mode is called by the item "Set border by ... map object" of the context menu of the "Matrix" bookmark.

The new version of the program is available for download in the Download section.
