Geoportal "Bank of spatial data" has been supplemented with maps of the regions of Saarland, North Rhine-Westphalia and Thuringia (Germany) formed according to OpenStreetMap data. 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 in MPTZ and SITZ format are available for download on the page "Digital maps".

Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared a video lesson of loading of the information from the state cadastre of real estate (GKN). Users of "Workstation of cadastral engineer", GIS "Panorama" or "Panorama-editor" can obtain the attributive data about cadastral objects by connecting the geoportal of Rosreestra or by means of the task of the "Geodesy editor" complex.

To request information from the state cadastre of real estate it is necessary to activate one of modes the Information from the state cadastre of real estate or Viewing the information about the object, to specify a point on the map and to press the left mouse button. The system will automatically make a request to the database of the state real estate cadastre, parse the received information package and display the information in the dialog. When the dialog is running, the received information is cached to reduce the load on the Internet and reduce the number of requests to the GKN database.

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

The journal "Geoprofi" (No. 5, 2022) published an article "About a state and prospects of development of Regional geoinformation system of the Ryazan region". The published material is devoted to the issues of the current state and prospects for the development of the RGIS RО. In the presented work the short explanations on the most interesting data layers are listed and given: a social and transport infrastructure, financial organisations, telecommunication facilities. The possibility of displaying spatial data in the form of a 3D model and the presence of a mobile application are noted. The prospects for expanding the functionality of the system are outlined. Much attention is planned to be paid to the processing of Earth's remote sensing data in order to increase situational awareness for decision-making in the field of land management in the Ryazan region, including agricultural land. Also, prospective lines of development of RGIS RO include actualization and expanding of industry and departmental spatial data, optimisation of gathering geodata, development of services for the public and the state departments, the analysis of nonsimultaneous data.

The regional geoinformation system of the Ryazan region is built on the basis of the "Geoportal region" software package. Its server part includes GIS Server, GIS WebServer SE, GIS WebService SE and Imagery Creator, the client part consists of a Web interface on the GIS Web ToolKit SE and GIS "Panorama".

The regional geographic information system of the Ryazan region is a full-fledged state platform of the region, which allows to make the collection, processing, storage and continuous updating of spatial information on the state and dynamics of the development of objects and territories. The resource creates conditions for interdepartmental and interlevel information exchange, provides an increase in the efficiency and quality of decisions made in various areas of socio-economic development and investment attractiveness of the Ryazan region.

In KB "Panorama" the digital geographic map of scale 1: 1 000 000 in SITZ format onto territory of the the Federative Republic of Brazil has been prepared. As a source for preparation of the map the VMap0 data obtained from the information from the site www.gis-lab.info has served. The map contain information on the number of inhabitants for cities and the name of settlements in Russian. As additional materials the World map of scale 1: 5 000 000 and OpenStreetMap data were used.

The map was led to the classifier of geographic maps of scale 1: 1 000 000 (1mogk13g.rsc). It can be used for a general assessment of the area and the study of natural conditions, to ensure the educational process, as a basis for the creation of geographic maps of a smaller scale, thematic and special maps, and solving other tasks. The map is distributed free of charge under a free license.

Digital geographic maps of scale 1: 1 000 000 in SITZ format are available for download on the page "Digital maps".

In KB "Panorama" the GIS "Panorama" version 14.4.2 has been developed. In the new version the tasks have been included for preparation of topographic maps, aeronautical documents, geological and forest maps, tools of checking quality of vector maps and cadastral documents have been updated.

A new group "Air navigation" has been formed in the list of applications. The task "Building a map of minimum heights" was added into it, as well as a new task "Formation of the mathematical basis of aeronautical charts". Procedure is intended for automatic formation of elements of the mathematical basis and out-of-frame design of aeronautical charts in accordance with the established rules and accepted conventional symbols. Building the mathematical basis and out-of-frame design is carried out for the contours selected on the map. At the same time, design frames, a grid of geodetic coordinates and out-of-frame labels for the ticks of geodetic grid lines are applied onto the design map. It is possible to customize the completeness and visual parameters of the design elements. The design map is created according to the classifier of the source map, however, all design elements are created in the form of graphic objects. Therefore, they can be transferred without distortion onto a map created using any classifier. The frame of the fragment being designed can have any shape and contain an arbitrary number of points (vertices).

The applied task "Numbering of point objects" has been added to the group of applied tasks "Geological tasks". The procedure is designed for automatic numbering of point objects highlighted on the map and can be used, for example, in the process of inventory of infrastructure objects. Numbering consists in assigning an ordinal number to the map object and placing this number in the semantic characteristic of the object with the specified code. Numbering can be started with an arbitrary number.

The task of connection of geoportals has been improved. For the geoportal of Rosreestr "Land plots", the range of data display scales has been expanded to 1:1 - 1:50 000. For possibility of viewing an overview view, data from larger scales with image compression is requested.

The task "Map Editor" has been improved. In the group of modes "Creating an object", the mode "Create clone" has been added. A clone is an object that has a link to the metric of the cloned object and its symbol. Typically, such objects create map design objects, for example, centerlines of roads. This allows you to reduce the amount of stored data and synchronize the editing of the metrics of objects and their design elements. Separating design objects into separate clone objects allows you to display them after the display of all designed objects is completed and improve the image quality (for example, clean the intersections of all roads).

The task "Import of vector maps from OSM format" has been improved. Linear design objects of map are created as clones of designed objects with a common metric for improvement of the image and reduction of data volume.

The program of checking a vector map has been improved. Identification of errors of self-crossing of contours has been improved, the number of duplicate error messages is reduced. Search and correction of degenerate and double contours have been added. Deleting fragments of the contours containing repeated duplication of points has been accelerated. Correction of object metrics is performed in the application "Check of vector map quality" in the "Editing" mode when the topology control "Control of self-intersections and location of subobjects" is selected.

In the "Correction of registry errors" mode from the "Cadastral documents" task, the ability to generate an XML file according to the ReportRegistryError_v01.xsd scheme has been added. The scheme is designed to generate an electronic document - a report on the results of determining the coordinates of the characteristic points of the boundaries and the area of land plots, the contours of buildings, structures, objects under construction, boundaries (parts of boundaries) of municipalities, settlements, territorial zones, forestries. The XML file is created according to the prepared cadastral map, onto which the existing and corrected objects from the "Correction of registry errors" layer of the survey.v6.rsc classifier should be put.

For automation of control and correction of errors in data an interception of failures of visualisation of objects of vector maps with automatic control and correction of structure of object on which a failure was detected has been added. If errors are found and corrected in the object (for example, an error in the coordinates data format after a disk crash), then a pop-up message about the corrected error with the object number will appear in the map window and a record will be added in the events log.

The topographical fonts intended for preparation for printing the topographic maps of various scales have been improved. The sizes of auxiliary symbols have been refined.

The digital classifier forestry.v2.rsc, intended for the state inventory of forests, planning of economic activities, organisation of the protection of forests from fires and forest violations and other problems in the field of forestry conducting has been improved. Changes have been made for formation of a XML-file of the forest declaration approved by the order of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Ecology of the Russian Federation from 04/29/2021 N 303. New semantics have been added into the classifier for the object a forest plot, used at filling of applications to the forest declaration.

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