Specialists from KB "Panorama" have prepared a video tutorial on working with the task "Automatic Recognition Sattelite" in the GIS "Panorama". The task "Automatic Image Recognition" is designed for recognizing and vectorizing data on satellite images, aerial photographs, and UAV data. The application sends a request for image decryption based on the selected area or object to the automatic recognition and vectorization service "Panorama Vision". The video tutorial demonstrates the stages of forming objects according to the type of loaded model and the selection of the output area. To start the processing process, you need to "Send Requisition" for data processing. During the recognition process, in the management dialogue for recognition settings, information is provided about the request status, completion time, processing stage, completion time, and readiness. During recognition, images are automatically uploaded to the server. After data processing is completed, a link to the generated map appears in the "Layer Identifier" field. When opening the map through the request, it automatically appears in the list of available user layers in the geospatial portal list for further use. The layer is provided via the WFS protocol as a vector map. The obtained map can be copied or edited, as well as converted to other formats. Educational materials can be found in the "Video Lessons" section.

Specialists from KB "Panorama" have created a video tutorial on the capabilities of viewing BIM models in the GIS "Panorama". The mode "List of BIM models" presented in the video material is included in the GIS "Panorama", "Panorama-editor", and other software products from KB "Panorama".

The discussed task is designed for a detailed view of the 3D geometry of a construction object or a complex of construction objects and the related attribute information of model elements (such as material, article, etc.). BIM (Building Information Model) is an object-oriented model consisting of elements, each belonging to its class - walls, floors, windows, reinforcement, and others. The class of an element defines the set of properties and behavior of the element. In this task, the IFC format is supported - an open standard for representing BIM data.

To assign a 3D view to a construction object, it is necessary to select the object on the map and, using the "Object Selection" dialog on the "Semantics" tab, specify a link to the file by adding a value to the service semantics "Link to BIM model file". Viewing the BIM model is done by double-clicking on the value of this semantics or using the "List of BIM models" mode.

Educational materials can be accessed in the "Video Lessons" section.

Geoportal "Bank of spatial data" has been supplemented with a map of the Republic of Madagascar, 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".

In "KB Panorama" developed a Complex of automatic recognition and vectorization - "Panorama Vision". The complex is based on artificial intelligence (AI) using trained neural networks. The complex is designed for automatic recognition and vectorization of data on satellite images, aerial photographs, and data from UAVs. "Panorama Vision" allows to recognize the contours of fields, hydrographic objects (rivers, ponds, lakes, and others). In future versions, recognition of vegetation, road network objects, structures, and determination of building heights are planned to be added. The complex can be accessed through a client module in the professional GIS "Panorama". The client application submits requests for data processing to the server part of the complex located on the technical facilities of KB "Panorama". User images or data from open sources are used for recognition. The spatial resolution of the data should be at least 10 meters/pixel. As a result of image processing, a vector map with contours of recognized objects is created, for example, with the boundaries of agricultural fields. When using the service, the total volume of processed data for the user is limited by the paid recognition area. Increasing the available area is possible by purchasing processing rights.

To perform processing, the user needs to take several actions: open raster images in GIS "Panorama" (own images of the area) and/or connect geospatial portals with satellite images; in the client module "Panorama Vision" select an area of interest; start the recognition process by submitting a request. As a result of data processing by the complex, a layer with a vector map published according to the WFS protocol is obtained. The user can copy or edit the received map, as well as convert it to other formats. The "Panorama Vision" complex performs semantic segmentation of objects in images using deep neural networks based on the attention mechanism. For training the model for decoding the boundaries of agricultural lands, satellite images of regions in the middle zone of the Russian Federation were used together with a vector map containing plow contours. The total data volume is over 100 GB.

The accuracy of contour recognition on test images is about 90%. To generate field contours, the classifier agro10t.rscz is used, objects are created with code 79000002 - agricultural land boundaries. To generate contours of hydrographic objects, the classifier map10000.rscz is used, objects are created with code 31410000 - rivers, streams. For example, to generate contours of fields with a total area of 452 sq. km and raster data volume of 112 MB, it took 2 minutes. As a result of processing, 758 unique fields were created. The new version of the program is available for download in the Download section.

In the KB "Panorama", the Complex of preparing documents of aeronautical information version 8.2.8 has been developed under the management of GIS "Panorama" or GIS "Operator". In the new version, a dialog "Output holding procedure" has been added, developed in accordance with ICAO Doc 8697 "Aeronautical Chart Manual" and ICAO Annex 4 "Aeronautical Charts". The dialog is designed to display a list of holding patterns on the aeronautical chart in aerodrome areas and air routes. A symbolic "racecourse" scheme is used for holding patterns, with filled values of bearing accurate to the nearest degree (including the degree sign) and time in minutes. If necessary, a checkpoint is additionally created to base the scheme on. Filters are provided for route type and symbolic route name, as well as checkpoint name.

The task panel "Preparation of aeronautical information documents" has been updated. The ability to call the "Display of Holding Patterns" dialog has been added, and buttons for Import/Export dialogs from ARINC and AIXM formats have been moved to a new additional panel. The program contains two types of export/import dialogs, the functionality of which depends on the connection settings to the Complex database.

The Document Preparation Complex of Aeronautical Information is a set of tools for maintaining a database of aeronautical data, modeling and analyzing aeronautical situations, creating aeronautical charts, and exchanging data with other information systems through export and import in the ARINC 424-19 exchange format and export in AIXM 5.1 format. The "Designing of the airfield routes" task is used for designing departure, approach, and landing routes, as well as analyzing flight safety on them. The task "Assessment compliance of aerodromes with FAR requirements" is intended for analyzing the aerodrome and its surrounding area for suitability for operation and aircraft flights according to Federal Aviation Regulations.

The new version of the program, examples of aeronautical information documents, operational documentation, video lessons and presentations are available for download on the Download page.
