Geoportal "Bank of spatial data" has been supplemented with a map of Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei Darussalam, 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".

KB "Panorama" has developed Digital Map and Remote Sensing Data Bank version 9.0.0. The new version adds the capability to send messages via Telegram messenger. Administrators of distributed spatial data storage systems can promptly respond to system events. Notifications for critical errors, warnings, and diagnostic messages are supported. The message type can be configured in the complex administrator. Email notification support is also included.

The list of supported data types (formats) for loading has been updated. When loading data, operators are shown a description of the selected loading type, which specifies the required structure and composition of input data. Automatic filling of the "Presence of scanned document image" field has been added for analog geodetic materials and documents. Loading and updating of data with an arbitrary number of fields from CSV files has been optimized.

The system now displays a list of files included in datasets for maps, rasters, and matrices. Templates for State Geodetic Network and State Survey Network point statements have been updated.

Data security is ensured through access rights management based on security features integrated into the operating system. Regular authentication, digest authentication, system authentication (via web server), and domain authentication (Kerberos or ActiveDirectory) are supported. Additional security is provided through end-to-end authentication when working with the database. Database connections are established with the privileges of the system user. 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 domestic software registry under number 1862.

The Digital Map and Remote Sensing Data Bank serves as the foundation for building spatial data infrastructure at federal, regional, and municipal levels, as well as in corporate information systems. Within a unified geoinformation space, the Digital Map and Remote Sensing Data Bank implements the collection, storage, quality control, search, and delivery of spatial data in exchange formats. Spatial data selected through the program can be deployed for multi-user access on the GIS Server and published according to international OGC standards (WFS, WFS-T, WMS, WMTS, WCS) on the GIS WebService SE application server. Users can access data both through a thin client (using GIS WebServer SE) and desktop applications (GIS "Panorama", GIS "Operator"). The Digital Map and Remote Sensing Data Bank enables the construction of a cloud storage for spatial data, provides access to this data, and supports automated generation and updating of geo-coverages.

The current state of spatial data is displayed using schematic maps, which are maintained for each type of stored data: vector maps, remote sensing data, elevation matrices, and terrain models. The system provides remote placement of spatial datasets in file storage, version control of stored datasets, updating of data availability scheme maps, automated collection and formation of metadata, and formation and updating of geo-coverages. Automated collection and formation of metadata is performed according to ISO 19115:2003, Geographic information — Metadata and ISO/TS 19139, Geographic information — Metadata — XML schema implementation standards. The system automatically generates reduced copies of data images, verifies file checksums, and checks the completeness of datasets.

Spatial data placement in file storage is carried out with integrity verification, data structure and content control. Operation results are logged and recorded in the metadata database. Automatic backup of metadata and spatial data storage is provided with integrity control and data recovery. A multilingual interface is supported.

The "Spatial Data Bank" portal demonstrates capabilities for organizing storage, accounting, and distribution of vector maps, remote sensing data, elevation matrices, and terrain models. The portal contains vector maps in SXF format, created based on data from open sources (OpenStreetMap, VMap0). The spatial data includes maps of: Russian Federation subjects, countries, and cities from both near and far abroad. In total, there are over 400 vector maps and 6,700 matrix data sets with a total volume of more than 230 GB. KB "Panorama" specialists update and maintain the portal's information content weekly. All published data is distributed free of charge under an open license.

The new version of the program is available for download on the Download page.

KB "Panorama" has developed GIS WebService SE version 15.11.2. The new version implements a PHP microservices development interface. It allows creating services based on existing GIS WebService SE methods and operations and integrating them into applications. As examples, the documentation presents and describes exclusion zone detection and printing services. The advantage of microservices lies in their scalability, development flexibility, and stability.

The new version expands data import and export capabilities. Support has been added for the most common formats such as SVG, TIFF, CSV, DXF, SHP, MIF/MID, GeoJSON, GML, TXT, SIT, SITX, MAP, MPT, SXF, TXF, KML. Data republication from the "National Spatial Data System" geoportal has been implemented.

Linux family operating systems support has been improved. Support for Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04 has been added. Qt5 support has been implemented for all supported operating systems, including Astra Linux, both for information display and for writing custom service libraries. New queries have been implemented: calculating the shortest distance from a point to an object, determining point coordinates based on distance from the object's start.

The user interface has been improved. A service layer closing button has been added for manual data replacement without stopping the service. GIS Server administrator call tools have been implemented. Additionally, client-side log archiving is now available to reduce data transfer volume. A user interface has been developed for configuring layer accessibility, editing layers, search filters, and object display for each user. Restriction parameters (code, key, semantics, localization) can be set using SQL queries to the database.

GIS WebService SE supports all international standards (OGC WFS, WFS-T, WMS, WMTS, WCS, WPS) used for spatial data transfer and display. The program implements the ability to serve tiles for any custom or local coordinate system. The application is developed for Windows and Linux platforms and is compatible with Apache, IIS, and nginx web servers.

The new program version and documentation are available on the website in the Download section.

KB "Panorama" specialists have successfully completed testing that confirms compatibility and correct operation of GIS Server, GIS WebService SE, and Imagery Service with "Astra Linux Special Edition" version 1.8. More details about the certified versions' operation in "Astra Linux Special Edition" 1.8 can be found in the corresponding forum sections.

GIS Server is a program that provides remote access to vector maps, remote sensing data, and spatial databases for users of GIS "Panorama", GIS "Operator", and other programs. Server-based data storage ensures protection against illegal viewing, copying, modification, and printing. GIS Server supports multi-level interconnection for distributed storage and processing of spatial data with automatic replication and backup. The program works with spatial databases managed by PostgreSQL DBMS in accordance with OGC 06-103r4 standard: "OpenGIS Implementation Standard for Geographic information – Simple feature access – Part 1: Common architecture".

GIS WebService SE is designed to process requests in TCP/IP networks. The service provides vector and raster spatial information. It performs object searches based on semantic characteristics, creates and edits vector maps, performs map calculations, enables surface and road graph construction, converts object coordinates between different systems, generates map legends, and processes other requests. The service includes GIS Application Service, designed for creating tile pyramids from spatial data. It enables transaction operations for creating, updating, or deleting existing objects in service datasets. The service provides spatial data in GML format, metadata retrieval, and terrain information.

Imagery Service generates tiles in JPEG, PNG, PNG8, Mbtiles, BIR, GeoPackage, WebP, GeoJson formats according to international standard OGC WMTS 07-057r7 version 1.0.0, TMS standard, and OGC 12-128r15 GeoPackage version 1.2.1. Tile data created by Imagery Service is used by GIS WebServer SE and GIS WebService SE software products to ensure high-speed processing of requests for displaying spatial data across vast territories with simultaneous access by many users.

"Astra Linux Special Edition" is a Russian certified operating system with built-in information protection tools for stable and secure operation of IT infrastructures of any scale and processing of information with various levels of confidentiality. The operating system includes a software package for solving everyday office and multimedia tasks.

KB "Panorama" in collaboration with MIIGAiK students has prepared a video tutorial on working with the "Import vector maps from KML format" task. The task is available in GIS "Panorama", GIS "Operator" and other KB "Panorama" software products for the "Astra Linux Special Edition" operating system.

The video tutorial demonstrates KML data loading types both into a new map and into an existing one. During data import, loading is performed while preserving the graphical appearance of objects and according to the map resource classifier mp2map.rscz. This classifier is based on conventional symbols compiled from open sources. Object keys correspond to Garmin, Navitel, and other object types. To display KML file objects using unique keys used in the classifier, it is necessary to create a settings file. To fill in the settings table, you need to match the classifier object keys with KML file data.

During data loading, information is provided about the total number of objects, successfully and unsuccessfully created objects, and the number of unconfigured codes. You can find the training materials in the "Video Tutorials" section.
