KB "Panorama" has developed GIS WebService SE version 15.12.0. The new version implements a mechanism for accessing and displaying retrospective data. Users can visualize layer objects for a specific date or for a particular time interval. Data sources, both archival and current, can be databases or maps. The criterion for building a retrospective is the presence of semantics for objects or fields in tables containing the date/time of initial and final states. The storage format for date/time data must comply with the ISO8601 standard. Current data can be stored in one table, while archival data in another. In the database, a connection is established between the current state table and the archive table. When an object in the current table is modified, it is automatically transferred to the archive data table, where it is assigned an end date of existence.

The new capabilities allow analyzing the development of territories, the construction process, road and utility line construction. The service can process historical topographic maps, analyze changes in nature management and the physical-geographical state of territories, and much more. For working with retrospective data, the following queries have been added: obtaining a list of layers with archival data; querying the range of available archival dates; building a retrospective layer for a specified time period.

The new version has improved security for storing service operation parameters and its interaction with other services or databases. The algorithm for building buffer zones for objects with a length of more than 18 degrees has been optimized. The ability to sort response results by semantics, object name, layer name in direct and reverse alphabetical order has been added.

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

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

Specialists from KB "Panorama" have prepared a new version of the digital classifier terrplan.v9.rscz and the schema fgistp-10-izm-65.v9.xsd for creating territorial planning schemes. The updates have been prepared taking into account the latest requirements of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation, approved by order No. 65 dated 02/06/2025 "On amendments to the Requirements for the description and display in territorial planning documents of federal, regional, and local significance objects, approved by order of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia dated January 9, 2018, No. 10".

As part of the update, 10 key classifier layers were refined, including important categories such as "Education and Science Objects", "Healthcare Objects", "Railway Lines", "Railway Transport Objects", "Automobile Roads", "Air Transport Objects", "Water Transport Objects", "Communication Objects", "Telecommunication Networks", and "Cultural Heritage Objects (CHO)".

The classifier includes 36 objects. 21 semantics have been added: key 693 TYPE_AIRFIELD "Airfield Type", key 694 CLASSAER "Airport Class", key 698 NAME_PORT "Port Name", key 704 OB_HR "Storage Volume (TB)" and others. Changes have been made to conditional and mandatory attributive characteristics of objects. The value of objects has been changed and objects of series 602031201 have been removed.

The new schema fgistp-10-izm-65.v9.xsd ensures reliable formation of GML files with automatic filling of necessary attributes for each layer. This guarantees data correctness when uploading to the Federal State Information System for Territorial Planning (FGIS TP) and allows creating database prototypes that fully comply with established requirements.

The digital classifier terrplan.v9.rscz and schema fgistp-10-izm-65.v9.xsd are included in the GIS "Panorama" for mapping federal, regional, and local significance objects required for preparing territorial planning documents of the Russian Federation, subjects of the Russian Federation, and municipalities. The updated classifier is available for download in the "Classifiers" section.

Specialists from KB "Panorama" together with students from MIIGAiK have prepared a video tutorial on working with the "Data Sorting" task. It is available in GIS "Panorama", GIS "Operator" and other software products from KB "Panorama" for the operating system "Astra Linux Special Edition".

The task under consideration allows for organizing the placement of object descriptions in metric and semantic files. This accelerates further data processing and ensures the correct sequence of object display. Data compression is achieved because the created files do not contain metric descriptions and semantics of deleted objects, as well as copies of edited objects.

The video tutorial shows the settings of the "Map Object Sorting" dialog box modes. These include: "Sort only unsorted sheets", "Delete copies of edited objects", "Type of stored coordinates", "Map format", "Coordinate precision" and others.

In the training material, special attention is paid to data format conversion. It shows how SITX and MAPZ formats can be converted back to the original SIT or MAP formats. At the same time, packed maps retain metric accuracy in centimeters even after reverse conversion. The final part of the lesson demonstrates the conversion of a map from SITX format to MAP format with the corresponding classifier.

You can view the training materials in the "Video Tutorials" section.

KB "Panorama" specialists have prepared and placed on the geoportal "Bank of spatial data" the 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 from KB "Panorama" have prepared training material demonstrating work with the "View attributes from database" task. The video tutorial will help users of GIS "Panorama", "Workstation of cadastral engineer" and "ARM of agronomist" software products to effectively organize spatial analysis of data stored in DBMS.

The task under consideration provides display of object attributes from spatial databases connected through DBM files, or arbitrary attribute tables. The subordination settings allow establishing relationships between tables, with each new relationship requiring a unique name. Additionally, there is the ability to use and edit previously created relationships.

The video tutorial demonstrates the process of adding rows describing the relationship between tables. The "Master table" column specifies the source dataset used to filter rows in the subordinate table. The "Subordinate table" column specifies the dataset to be filtered. The tables do not necessarily need to be directly linked, and all intermediate connections can be hidden using the visibility parameter setting. In the "Attribute Table" dialog, when clicking on any row of the master table, the rows of the subordinate table are automatically filtered based on matches in the configured fields.

You can access the training materials in the "Video Tutorials" section.
