In the GIS "Panorama" a support has been implemented for seamless coverages from composition of geoinformation service "Basic Products Bank" (BBP) of Roscosmos. The service, which provides services for the search, formation and dissemination of information products of remote sensing data, was developed by specialists of joint-stock company "Russian space systems". To connect to the service, you need to register on the BBP website BBP in the personal account of the service user and conclude an agreement to receive data on the selected territory.

The BBP contains data from various spacecraft, such as BKA, KANOPUS-V, KANOPUS-V-IK, METEOR-M, RESURS-P and others. Seamless coverages are provided in the form of a tile substrate according to the TMS standard for various territories of the Russian Federation in separate regions. To support seamless BBP coverages in the GIS "Panorama", a direct connection of geoportals according to the TMS standard has been added. The storage of tiles of the TMS service is presented as a set of files ordered by directories, the so-called tile pyramid. To quickly find the required tiles, the coordinates of the tile pyramid (Z/X/Y) corresponding to the level of the pyramid, the column number and the row number of the tile are used. The GIS "Panorama" supports two search algorithms Z/X/Y and Z/Y/X, which allow you to generate a request for providing data, get tiles from the storage and draw the extracted data.

The composition of seamless coverages is constantly updated, to dynamically add layers to the composition of the displayed map, you must use the "Open map in WMS/WMTS service" dialog. To connect to BBP, it is enough to enter the connection string and api-key received in your personal account on the BBP website. In the task of connecting geoportals, a support has been added for arbitrary user matrixes of tiled pyramids in local coordinate systems with user-defined reference points and arbitrary direction of axes. This allows you to include BIR and GeoPackage format data.

BBP integration with GIS "Panorama" provides information independence from foreign remote sensing data providers and creates a geoinformation ecosystem based entirely on domestic software technologies and information resources. For users of state and municipal authorities of various levels, the BBP is a tool for accessing information products generated according to the remote sensing data of Russian Space Systems. Embedding BBP products into the GIS "Panorama" ensures their application for solving various applied problems of global and regional monitoring.

Geoportal "Bank of spatial data" has been supplemented with maps of the regions of Picardy and Poitou-Charentes (France), formed according to 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). 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 Databank of digital maps and remote sensing data version 7.2.0 has been developed. In the new version a search and display on a map-scheme of large volume of geodata are optimised. Acceleration is achieved through improved protocols of data exchange with service the GIS WebService SE and use of unique algorithms of search. Users are provided with the ability to search by a rectangular area, circle, polygon and object boundaries. The program quickly processes and displays the results of search queries containing more than 100000 data sets. All selected data is displayed on a map-scheme and automatically scaled for obtaining a clear picture.

Visual presentation of data on a map-scheme has been improved due to change of a view of displaying the geodetic points. Each point is displayed with a certain sign, depending on its class. The sign view is set automatically when importing metadata. The search for geodetic points using selected documents, lines of the state leveling network, geodetic networks for special purposes has been implemented. Possibility has been added to recalculate the coordinates of the points of the planned-altitude base from state coordinate systems into local ones and vice versa. The results of the recalculated values are stored in the database and in an Excel file.

All user actions related to editing metadata are logged. The program provides the ability to view archived records. In the Databank a search of duplicating values for directories, including archival ones is provided.

Data security is ensured by the differentiation of access rights based on security tools included in the operating system. Basic authentication, digest authentication, system authentication (via web server), and domain authentication (Kerberos or ActiveDirectory) are supported. Additional security is provided by the use of pass-through 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, ALT Linux, Elbrus, Ubuntu, CentOS, MS Windows and others) and architectures (Intel, Elbrus, Baikal). The program is registered in the register of domestic software under the number 1862.

The databank of digital maps and remote sensing data is the basis for building infrastructure of spatial data of 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, quality control, 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 geocovers.

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 geocovers. 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. Placement of spatial data into file storage is performed with integrity check, control of data structure and content. The results of the work are recorded and are entered into the metadata base. Automatic backup of metadata and spatial data storage with integrity control and data recovery has been provided. Multilingual interface is supported.

The "Bank of spatial data" portal demonstrates the possibilities of organizing storage, accounting and and issuance of vector maps, remote sensing data, matrixes of heights and the terrain models. 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 250 vector maps and 6700 matrix data with a total volume of 60 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.

As part of the development of the state information system "Regional geoinformation system of the Ryazan region", the module "Accounting for agricultural land" was adapted in terms of performing the work of the first stage of creating a service for informing about land cultivation with plant protection products. Work is being done to prevent the death of bees.

One of the main reasons for the death of bees in many countries of the world, including Russia, is the steady increase in the use of pesticides in agriculture. According to the appraisal of management of the Russian Union of Producers of Chemical Plant Protection Products (PPPs), recently the volume of pesticide use in Russia has increased annually by 6-8% and this trend will continue for a long time. The list of pesticides and agrochemicals registered in Russia includes more than a thousand items. However, today no one knows exactly what preparations and in what quantities are applied by agricultural producers.

The RGIS RO has implemented a unified directory of plant protection products in accordance with the current State catalog of pesticides and agrochemicals approved for use on the territory of the Russian Federation, containing: the name of the active substance, the hazard class for humans, the hazard class for bees in the field. The UZSHN module has built-in tools for accessing of crop growers in the Ryazan region to geospatial data on agricultural land with the ability to enter data on the current use of PPPs on the fields of their farm, including the date of start and end of processing, the name of PPPs with a choice from a single directory of PPPs.

The beekeepers registered in the system are provided with tools that allow them to independently indicate on the map the current location of the apiary and the description of the apiary, including: the name of the apiary, the name of the owner, the status of the beekeeper (LPH, IP, KFH, SHO), the number of the veterinary passport for the apiary, the address of the apiary, the date of installation and the number of bees.

Based on the entered information, the system automatically calculates and color-codes the dangers for bees at each apiary in connection with the use of plant protection products. As part of the UZSHN RGIS RO module, the thematic map of processing PPPs is daily updated, displaying in system a traffic light of the land contour. Fields that are not planned to be processed are displayed in green. Fields that are planned to be processed within the next 1-3 calendar days are displayed in yellow. Those fields are displayed in red, the PPP processing of which is carried out on the current date, and during the period of the restriction of the bees flying. The calculation of the time of limitation of bees flying is carried out depending on the hazard class for bees of the active substance of PPP. For PPP of the 1st hazard class, restrictions on the bees flying are valid on the dates of processing and 6 calendar days after its completion. For plant protection products of the 2nd hazard class - the dates of processing and 3 calendar days after its completion. For plant protection products of the 3rd hazard class - the date of processing.
