The geoportal "Bank of spatial data" is supplemented with maps of the Lodz, Pomeranian, ?wi?tokrzyskie and Silesian Voivodeships (Poland), formed according to OpenStreetMap data. The source data was obtained from the Geofabrik website. To work with 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 Data bank of digital maps and remote sensing data version 7.4.0 has been developed. In the new version the mechanism of control of the started processes of loading and updating of the data has been implemented, modes of updating maps-schemes were improved, speed of work has been increased at simultaneous editing of a large number of records, the program interface has been improved.

In the Data Bank of Digital Maps and remote sensing data, the ability to dispatch conflict situations when performing the main processes in spatial data funds has been added. In the program the procedures of loading data and procedure of updating maps-schemes of metadata are controled. Simultaneous execution of conflicting processes is excluded. When you try to run them, a corresponding warning will be issued with information about the state of an already running process.

Visualization of displaying spatial data at the expense of new modes of updating maps-schemes is improved. An update mode has been added with a complete re-creation of objects on the map and with drawing a frame from the map file. On a map-scheme the filtered and marked data sets are separately displayed. Small objects are combined into groups (clusters). The legend for maps-schemes has been updated. There is added an automatic updating of the map-scheme after editing the metadata, if the fields that affect the view of object were edited.

Speed of multiple editing of metadata has been optimised when selecting a large number of records (more than 100 thousand). Deleting and export of data sets have been accelerated. Work with lists in case of selecting all available data sets has been optimised.

Access to the basic functions is duplicated in the upper part of the application, a button for minimizing the metadata panel has been added. Possibility of starting with display of a map in full screen is implemented. Work is optimised with small browser window sizes. In the administrator of the complex, management of the printing of diagnostic messages has been added and their list has been expanded. Support of editing maps through connection to a chain of GIS Servers in the distributed system of data storage has been improved.

Data security is ensured by the differentiation of access rights based on the security tools that are part of the operating system. Basic authentication, digest authentication, system authentication (web server tools), 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.

Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared and placed the maps of the Moscow and Tver regions on the geoportal "Bank of spatial data". The maps were formed using OpenStreetMap data, source data were 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) and were saved into a packed project (mptz). 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 "Panorama" version 14.3.4 has been developed. The new version has improved tools for designing reports, displaying and highlighting labels on the map, searching for objects by their location on the ground, editing object attributes, display of rasters and matrixes with compression, formations of a PostScript CMYK file, preparing aeronautical data and other tools.

Possibilities for display of titles have been expanded. New properties of design the titles allow to mark the title by a shade, outline, a background and a frame, and also to format the text taking into account a spacing sign (an insert of spaces) and the chosen register (uppercase, lowercase, as in a sentence). Examples of titles are given on the map included into the GIS "Panorama" installation: menu File - Example data - data\shape\shape.sitx. There is added the ability to change the thickness of solid and dashed contours of objects by the value of the service semantics "Line thickness in mm" (31005).

The "Report Designer" task has been improved. A new mode "Additional design" has been added, which allows you to apply onto the report layout the auxiliary design elements: icons of linear scales and a direction onto the north, as well as design frames of various types.

The task "Highlight any area" has been improved. Automatic detection of the highlighting mode for objects inside the area has been added. When drawing an area from left to right, objects that are completely inside the selected area will be highlighted (the color of the area is blue), and from right to left, objects that intersect it (the color of the area is green).

For automatic control of entered values of character semantics in "Classifier Editor" the possibility has been added for assigning to one semantics at once the several templates of a string defining the valid characters in value of a string or the sample of a string of a special purpose, for example, GUID, cadastral number and others. For strings that have value templates, when you enter a value in the Select Object dialog, it checks if it matches one of the specified templates. If there is a mismatch, the message indicates to the user the character number from which the input string does not match the template.

Display of rasters with smoothing has been added. At increasing the image of a raster more than in 2 times from the initial size in pixels the smoothing is carried out. The new algorithm of display allows to get rid of "pixelization" effect when you increase the rasters. Image smoothing is performed by bicubic interpolation method (by 16 nearest raster elements). Smoothing is enabled or disabled via the main menu: View - Raster smoothing.

The task "Import of raster data" has been improved. There is added a use of ZRS placing files from Zulu for automatic positioning of imported rasters. In dialog "Import of raster data" for an automatic binding of the raster image in the work region the binding's files the WORLD FILE, TAB and MAP are also supported. To use a binding file when importing rasters, in the dialog it is enough to select the type of binding file or the name of the product that generated the file from the list.

The algorithm of data compression of a matrix of heights has been improved. Functions of optimisation of a matrix of heights were improved: compression of 16-bit data has been added. This algorithm is used at loading a matrix of heights in the following modes: File - Import rasters or matrixes from... - Matrix (SRTM, GeoTIFF, IMG), GDAL matrix (IMG, DEM...). To compress previously loaded 16-bit matrixes, select the matrix in the list of data and select the "Optimization" item in the context menu (select the "Optimization of packed matrixes" mode in the dialog). Typically, a compressed matrix occupies a volume 5-7 times less than the original volume and contains 3-4 overview matrixes (reduced copies). Reducing the volume and using reduced copies greatly accelerates the visualization of the matrix. Support for XML files larger than 4 GB has been added. It is used when importing GML data, reading cadastral data from XML format files, and in other tasks.

Formation of PostScript CMYK file has been improved: accounting for palette colors of all open maps has been added, processing of gradient fillings has been added. Creating PostScript files is performed in the map printing dialog, which is called through the main menu: File - Print. To print a map in PostScript, you must select a PostScript compatible print device and output type: PostScript RGB or PostScript CMYK. The detailed description of the procedure for formation of PostScrip files is contained in the document "Applied tasks. Preparation for publication".

In the "View Passport" task on the "Sheet metadata" page, information about the date and time of creation and updating of map sheets has been added. Date and time information is displayed in local time and stored in the worldwide UTC system.

The applied task "Creating a map of minimum heights", included into group of applications "Automatic creation of objects" has been improved. The procedure serves as an addition to the Complex for AI documents preparation and is designed to automatically generate a map of the minimum allowable heights for aviation flights based on elevation matrixes, a map of elevation points and a map of artificial obstacles. The map of minimum heights is a matrix of signatures for the values of the minimum allowable flight altitudes in the established conventional symbols with a given size of the analyzed cells. In the new version, the technology for processing height data has been changed. The possibility of stage-by-stage processing of matrixes of heights and additional maps has been implemented, which allows you to quickly update the map of minimum heights according to the changed map of artificial obstacles without re-processing matrixes of heights. There is added the ability to calculate AMA (Area Minimum Altitude) and MORA (Minimum of Route Altitude) altitudes.

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

Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared a video lesson of formation of a graphic file of the scheme of geodesy constructions for a graphic part of the land survey plan. Users of "Workstation of cadastral engineer", GIS "Panorama" or "Panorama-editor" can make schemes of geodetic constructions with the subsequent formation of graphic files of schemes using the tools of the complex of geodesy calculations.

The training material demonstrates the procedure for forming the scheme of geodetic constructions for the graphic part of the land survey plan issued in accordance with the Order of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation dated December, 8th, 2015 No. 921. On the basis of this order in software products of KB "Panorama" the classifiers of symbols survey.v5.rscz and survey.v6.rscz have been developed. In classifiers there are implemented the general list of layers, semantic characteristics and objects for displaying cadastral information on cadastral maps and other cadastral documents.

The scheme of geodetic constructions contains a schematic representation of the object of cadastral work and geodetic constructions, depending on the method of measuring the object. Preparing a scheme of land plots layout is an obligatory stage in the production of cadastral works on formation of land survey plan of the land plot.

You can get acquainted with training materials in the section "Video lessons".
