In KB "Panorama" the GIS WebServer SE version 6.11.0 has been developed for operating systems Astra Linux, CentOS, Ubuntu, MS Windows. In the new version the map editing tools have been improved, possibilities of work with a map legend have been expanded, the administration module has been improved.

The mode of group editing of objects has been updated in the Map Editor. For several objects selected on the map, you can perform the operation of moving, rotating or scaling. Group editing is performed in one step, which allows you to quickly make changes into the map and reduces editing time. The user can cancel a group operation on objects. As a result of the undo, all objects that have been changed will be restored. Cancelling and restoring operations of editing is carried out on the basis of the transaction log operated by a request to the server. Into the Map Legend component a fast search of objects has been added, legend contents can be viewed as the list of objects or in a hierarchical view. In the map window there is added a display of the cursor coordinates in various units - meters, degrees, radians of a current projection of a map. The choice of cursor coordinate units (meters, degrees, radians) is performed in the Options component.

GIS WebServer SE is used in the construction of closed corporate systems to ensure the protection of data having a security classification or a trade secret. The program is certified by the 2nd level of control over the absence of undeclared capabilities. GIS WebServer SE is implemented using the GIS WebToolKit SE, which can be used in development tools that use the JavaScript and TypeScript.

On the basis of GIS WebServer SE and other server products of KB "Panorama" the Regional GIS of the Ryazan region (RGIS RО) has been implemented. RGIS RО is a specialized multifunctional geoportal, the interactive capabilities of which provide access to reliable information about objects of various categories. RGIS RO is available to a wide range of users - to the authorities, citizens, organizations, including potential investors and private companies. The regional GIS of the Ryazan region helps in making decisions in various areas of socio-economic development.

New version of the program is posted on the website in the Download section.

Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared and posted on the geoportal "Bank of spatial data" a map of Jamaica, formed according to OpenStreetMap data. To work with the map, you can use the GIS Panorama Mini program or other software products of KB "Panorama".

The map was 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".

Specialists of KB "Panorama" have prepared the GIS Constructor version 14.2.3 for Astra Linux Special Edition. The new version is aimed at certification in the information security certification system of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation for level 2 of control of the absence of undeclared capabilities in accordance with the governing document of the State Technical Commission of Russia and for the compliance of real and declared functionality in the documentation.

In the program a support of the packed formats of spatial data (MAPZ, SITZ, MPTZ) has been added. The volume of the packed data is reduced approximately in 3 times in comparison with volume of the initial data with the maximum accuracy of the metrics. If the map sheet is located in memory entirely it is unpacked in a multi-threaded mode when opening the data of sheet to speed up access. The packed MPTZ project is an archive of spatial data containing a complex representation of the territory in the form of vector maps of different levels of detail, rasters (terrain images) in RSW format, matrixes of heights and matrixes of quality characteristics of the terrain, insets from the same data, the links to data from the GIS Server and from geoportals by various protocols. The packaged MPTZ project is supported in the KB "Panorama" software products on all platforms, including mobile devices.

The toolkit allows you to implement in the developed GIS applications a direct connection to large spatial databases (millions of records) by using the support of DBM format. Information from the database is displayed in the form of vector maps of the area. GIS application will be able to simultaneously edit the contents of databases connected directly and through the GIS Server, carry out exchange of information between different databases, agree the coordinates and attributes of objects in different databases, jointly display information from different databases in the form of graphic layers, combine data with images , matrixes of heights, vector maps and data from various geoportals and web services. Spatial information from the database is displayed in the form of cartographic conventional symbols, which makes the editing process transparent for the user. The set of displayed and edited objects and their semantic characteristics can be flexibly specified using an SQL query.

In GIS Constructor a support of digital sea maps of IHO S63 standard has been implemented. An application system developer can add support for the standard into own application and register the application in the prescribed manner for obtaining a developer key. Files of data of a sea map will be transformed to the project of maps (MPT) containing a list of SITX files coded by a key of record from the user's permission. More detailed information is given in the document "Programmer's guide".

An automatic clustering algorithm is implemented to divide a set of point signs into groups and display them. Cluster descriptions are contained in the map classifier. The conventional sign of the cluster can be programmable, which allows you to select the type of cluster in various ways and change the properties of the sign depending on the number of objects in the cluster (signature of the number, size of the sign, brightness). When grouping more than one object of a given type in a virtual cell of a cluster, their conventional symbols will be automatically replaced by a symbol of the cluster, the center of which will have the average coordinate of the objects included into it. When you change the scale, the configuration of the clusters automatically changes.

The new version adds a mechanism for converting projections of raster and matrix data on the fly. The user gets the opportunity to combine an arbitrary set of spatial data without additional actions. The projection parameters will be automatically converted to the projection of the first opened map. In this case, all the necessary changes will be made in the RAM, which allows you to keep the original cartographic material unchanged. Over the obtained data set you can perform operations of updating, calculation, building a three-dimensional model.

There is accelerated an opening and first display of maps due to the formation of the "*.sol" file with a tree of territorial distribution of objects onto each sheet of the map. When the map is opened, the object tree is read and the first display is accelerated by 5-15 times (for a map with 2 million objects, the opening and first display is accelerated from 9-12 seconds to 1 second). In the absence of the "*.sol" file, the automatic construction of a tree and file saving are carried out.

The mechanism for displaying dynamic objects on the map has been improved. Now the typical task of displaying the trajectory of an object on the map can be solved by simply changing the coordinates of the object and the angle of rotation in its characteristics.

Display of rasters with smoothing has been added. At increasing the image of a raster more than in two 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).

Abilities of displaying 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). 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). To display various tabular information on the map, a new graphic symbol "Table" has been developed. To display the table in the desired position, a point object is created that has a link to the CSV file in the semantics and a conventional symbol of the "Table" type.

API in Python language is included into GIS Constructor that provides access to several thousand functions of the MAPAPI-interface for spatial data analysis, automation of processes of creating and updating digital terrain models. There are several options for using scripts as part of a GIS application: a visual component of designing, a program interface of a call from the C/C++ language, direct writing and execution of Python scripts. Due to the fact that the Python scripting programming language has a large set of connected modules, the user receives an easy-to-use and extensive auxiliary toolkit (mathematical calculations, processing of text and graphic data, work with a network and another) when creating a GIS application.

In the new version, support for 3D spatial data tiles in the DB3D format has been added into the graphic component of displaying a three-dimensional terrain model. This will allow you to display accurate and realistic 3D models of unlimited size. The DB3D format is designed to store and display pyramids of 3D tiles packaged with metadata tables in SQLite format. Vector 3D tiles can be used to build a 3D terrain model in conjunction with other data sources: vector maps, space and aerial photographs, geoportals, point clouds, elevation matrixes.

In the new version the mechanism of reading files of digital maps in an exchange format (MIF/MID, TXF and others) has been improved. As a result, large files (for example, TXF larger than 4 GB) with incorrect characters may be imported. In this case, the erroneous sections will be skipped, and the import will continue. Into the list of supported formats JSON has been added, consisting of records of objects coordinates. Support of XML files having the size larger than 4 GB has been added. XML format processing is used in a wide range of tasks in the development of GIS applications (for example, importing data in GML format).

Support for layers from the Rosreestr geoportal has been added: Cadastral okrug, Cadastral districts, Cadastral quarters, Land plots, Land plots put up for auction, Red lines, Unified real estate complexes. Geoportal provides data in vector tile form in pbf (Protocolbuffer Binary Format) format. The data contains the coordinates of objects, signatures of plots, semantic characteristics.

Parameters for connecting to geoportals can be flexibly configured for each user by editing the wmslist_ru.xml file. The new version of the program is adapted to work in the OS "Astra Linux Special Edition" release "Smolensk" version 1.7.

GIS Constructor is a set of components for use in the visual programming environment of Qt Designer, which allows you to develop your own GIS applications. The visualization of the contents of digital maps is made in conventional symbols adopted for topographic, geographical and various special maps. Geoinformation system has ample opportunities for performing calculations, for providing display of spatial data on various graphic devices in standard and user systems of conventional symbols. The main functions can be executed in multithreaded mode. It supports automatic optimization of used memory for processing large amounts of data (tens of gigabytes) on limited resources (hundreds of megabytes).

The toolkit is adapted for work on a wide range of operating systems (Astra Linux SE, ALT Linux, Elbrus, Ubuntu, CentOS, QNX) and architectures (Intel, Elbrus, PowerPC, SPARC, ARM). The toolkit includes components of visual designing the GIS applications and library of a multiplatform multithreaded GIS core. GIS Constructor provides a cross-platform MAPAPI interface that allows a programmer to implement development in an operating system convenient for it. The developer can release GIS applications for a set of operating systems by simple assembly with minimal changes to the program source code.

In KB "Panorama" the GIS "Operator" version 14.2.5 has been developed for OS "Astra Linux Special Edition" (Release "Smolensk"), OS "Alt 8 SP" (architecture x86-64) and RED OS. In the new version, the ability to control the selection of map objects has been added, the task of importing DXF format data has been improved. Tools of map editing have been expanded, a type of programmable signs has been added to display bar charts, the list of scripts in the python language has been expanded, the efficiency of searching and displaying data has been increased by optimizing the allocation of RAM.

The task "Highlight any area" has been improved. Changing the conditions for selecting objects selected by area has been simplified. The selection of objects by area is performed using the "Select inside the object" and "Select by any area" modes (polygon, rectangular fragment, lasso). At the end of drawing the area on the map, objects located inside the selected area are highlighted. To change the selection conditions, press the right mouse button and select one of the modes in the context menu: Highlight inside (delete intersection), Highlight with intersection (and inside), Highlight outside (delete intersection).

Marking of objects on the map according to various search conditions has been improved. If clusters are displayed on the map (generalized signs of closely spaced objects specified in the classifier), then the corresponding signs of clusters are displayed and marked, taking into account the number of signs and their location on the map.

The composition of the "Map Editor" task has been extended. In the "Point editing" mode, the "End points in alignment" auxiliary mode has been added, designed to cut or extend the first or last segment of a linear object.

New type of programmable signs has been added for displaying bar charts according to the semantics of objects with display in a legend of semantics values (in addition to a sign displaying values in percentage). The description of diagrams includes a list of codes of semantics corresponding to sectors of the diagram. For each semantics the own parameters of displaying a sector are set. For all diagram the maximum width and the maximum height of the diagram are set. To the right of the diagram its legend is displayed. Texts of lines for signing of sectors are taken from semantics names, excepting repeating part of names. For example, if the semantics are called Number of inhabitants under 20 years old, Number of inhabitants from 20 to 40 years old, then the legend will contain the following lines: up to 20 years old, from 20 to 40 years old, and so on. The conventional symbol the "Bar chart" is shown in the data example on the map \Data\shape.

Import from DXF format has been improved. There is added a recalculation of coordinates and sizes of characters from storage units specified in DXF: inches, feet, miles, millimeters, centimeters, meters, and so on.

The formation of graphic primitives from the parameters of symbols specified in DXF has been improved, which allows you to reproduce the view of the original drawing without setting the symbols.

A script has been added into the list of basic python scripts that calculates the distance from the selected object up to several selected objects with recording into the semantics of the calculated value.

The tasks of sorting, importing and exporting maps in SXF and TXF formats have been improved to support clone objects. RAM distribution has been improved when processing large data sets (tens of gigabytes and more than a hundred million objects). The speed of searching and displaying data has been raised.
