In KB "Panorama" the Databank of digital maps and remote sensing data version 5.2.2 has been developed. The new version simplifies system administration, due to use of algorithm of automatic cleaning of temporary files, including the downloaded data archives. Placing spatial data into file storage is performed with integrity check and checksum determination. The results of the work are recorded into the diagnostic log, with the output of statistics on the server resources - the available number of cores, the amount of RAM, the percentage of memory load. The reliability of the service with data located on the GIS Server is increased when maintaining a distributed structure of file storage.

The databank of digital maps and remote sensing data is the basis for building infrastructure of spatial data at the federal, regional and municipal levels, in corporate information systems. Within the framework of a single geoinformation space, the Data Bank of digital maps and remote sensing data realises gathering, storage, search and delivery of the spatial data in exchange formats. The spatial data selected by means of the program can be placed for the multiuser access on the GIS Server and be published according to the international standards OGC WFS, WFS-T, WMS, WMTS, WCS on application server the GIS WebService SE. Users can access data from both a thin client (by means of GIS WebServer SE) and from desktop applications (GIS "Panorama", GIS "Operator"). The databank of digital maps and remote sensing data provides construction of cloud warehouse of spatial data, provision of access to these data, the automated formation and updating of geo-covers. The current state of spatial data is displayed by means of maps-schemes that are maintained for each type of stored data: vector maps, remote sensing data, elevation matrixes and terrain models. It provides remote placing the sets of spatial data into file warehouse, keeping versions of stored sets, updating maps-schemes of data availability, the automated collection and formation of metadata, and the formation and updating of geo-covers. Automated collection and formation of metadata is performed according to the standards of ISO 19115: 2003, Geographic information - Metadata and ISO/TS 19139, Geographic information - Metadata - XML schema implementation. The reduced copies of data images are automatically formed, checksum of files and completeness of data sets are checked.

The portal "Bank of spatial data" presents the possibilities of organizing storage, accounting and issuance of cartographic materials in vector, raster and matrix form. The portal contains vector maps in SXF format, generated on the basis of data from open sources (OpenStreetMap, VMap0). The spatial data includes maps of: subjects of the Russian Federation, countries and cities of the near and far abroad. In total, over 200 vector maps and 6000 matrix data with a total volume of 50 GB. Specialists of KB "Panorama" weekly update and refresh the content of the information 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 Download page.

Specialists of KB "Panorama" prepared and placed on the geoportal "Bank of spatial data" the maps of Zabaykalsky Krai and the Magadan Oblast. The maps were formed using OpenStreetMap data, source data was obtained from Geofabrik website. To work with the maps, you can use the GIS Panorama Mini program or other software products of KB "Panorama".

The maps were led to the modernised classifier of large-scale plans of scale 1: 5 000 (map5000m.rsc) and were saved into a packed project (MPTZ). The MPTZ format project includes a digital map of the region's territory (country, subject of the federation, administrative region), a map of the administrative-territorial division of the region and a digital classifier. Publishing of updates in bank of spatial data is made by using the program of Databank of digital maps and remote sensing data. Publishing contents of bank of spatial data on the geoportal and data access for downloading are implemented by means of GIS WebServer SE.

Free maps on the basis of OpenStreetMap data are available for download on the page "Digital maps".

In KB "Panorama" the GIS ToolKit of version 13.2.1 has been developed for creating GIS-applications in the environment of C ++ Builder, Delphi Embarcadero. The new version expands the possibilities of the TMapEditMetric component, which allows the programmer to implement interactive creation and editing of metrics (coordinates) of map objects in his application. In addition to the available modes for creating objects and subobjects, moving of objects, adding, deleting and editing metric points and selecting an arbitrary point on the contour of an object, a mode for selecting metric points of an existing object to "capture" points of other map objects or nodes of a rectangular map grid has been added into the component. If the corresponding option is activated, when the mouse cursor moves over the map, objects are searched for in the immediate vicinity of the cursor and the current edited point is "pulled" to the nearest metric point of the found object. It is possible to "capture" both the "real" points of the nearest object - in this case, only the points recorded in the metric of the object are taken, and "virtual" points - in this case, the coordinate of the point closest to the cursor on the contour of the object is taken, which is not necessarily included in the metric of this object.

Into the TMapEditMetric component the method has been added allowing from the outside to set coordinates of a current edited point. This allows the programmer to implement additional control over process of interactive editing, complementing it, for example, with possibilities of positioning by pressing keys on the keyboard.

In the updated component of interactive editing, a whole set of events has been added that allow you to perform its processing when you select an object point, edit it or delete it. In this case, in the event handler, it is possible to correct the coordinates of the point being edited or to cancel the corresponding operation altogether. This makes it possible to implement additional logic in the application - for example, control and prohibition of object points falling into certain zones.

The TMapView and TMapScreen map display components have the ability to display a rectangular grid and control its parameters.

The GIS ToolKit consists of a set of visual components (supplied in source code) and API functions of the GIS core for direct access to spatial data. 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. Spatial data can be located both at the workplace (direct access to data) and in a local network or the Internet (components of access to the GIS Server or data exchange using international protocols are used).

From 11 to 12 February 2021 Moscow will host the 12th International Scientifically-Practical Conference "Geodesy, Mine Survey and Aerial Survey". As part of this event, specialists from KB "Panorama" will make a presentation and hold a master class "Integrated use of data of geodesy, mine survey and aerial survey". The event participants will be shown the capabilities of the professional GIS "Panorama" and industry solutions for processing and analyzing spatial data coming from various sources. The presentation and master class will reflect software technologies that implement a unified methodology for the integrated use of vector, matrix and raster data for solving applied problems.

To process the results of field geodetic measurements, the means of importing data from digital devices, calculation and adjustment of measurements from the "Geodesy calculations" task are used. The calculation results are put on the map, where additional operations can be performed to calculate the coordinates of points and create on their basis linear and areal objects using the "Geodesy editor". For calculating coordinates of points on the basis of linear measurements along a route (for example, a road axis) the tools of support of linear coordinate system are used.

Results of the laboratory analysis of soils are used for conducting a base of subsoil survey points presented in coordinates of wellhead. For control of boring operations, estimation of spatial position of a wellbore and a relative positioning of two and more wellbores, the set of modes "Well calculations" is intended. Soil survey points and a matrix of heights of a relief are used for creation of a matrix of layers characterising geological layers. Matrixes of qualities are used for building surfaces of qualitative characteristics or estimated indicators of terrain conditions, including for the analysis of hydrological conditions.

Photographs obtained as a result of aerial survey using unmanned aerial vehicles are processed by photogrammetric tools for creating matrixes of heights and orthophotomaps. The processing results are sent to the GIS "Panorama" for manual and semi-automatic vectorization of terrain objects.

We invite everyone to take part in the conference events.
