Specialists from KB "Panorama" have prepared a video tutorial on the "Display Key Points" mode of the "Aeronautical Information Documentation Preparation" application task in GIS "Panorama". This mode is used to create and update waypoints, terminal points and radio navigation aids on the user map "ATS System". The process of plotting and updating key points involves modifying the geometry (point position) and/or semantic characteristics.

The video tutorial demonstrates the configuration of key point parameters before plotting them on the user map. The "Point Filter" field allows selecting database records by date, point type and name. The "Type" field now supports multiple selections of point types. The "Update" button is used for partial updating of point semantics. If a point from the database does not exist on the map, it will be created. By default, this functionality is similar to the "Plot" button but without updating object geometry.

In the key point parameter settings form, an option for coordinate recalculation has been added, which is used to generate west longitude values supplemented to 360 degrees. If points are created with the coordinate recalculation option enabled, routes on the map must also be plotted with the recalculation flag turned on.

The training materials can be accessed in the "Video Tutorials" section.

KB "Panorama" has developed GIS Server for domestic operating systems "Alt SP" release 10 and "Alt Workstation" version 10. The operating systems are developed by the Russian company "Basalt SPO".

GIS Server provides remote access to vector maps, remote sensing data and spatial databases for users of GIS "Panorama", GIS "Operator" and other programs. Data storage on the server provides 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. This architecture reduces network load during data transmission by tens of times, speeds up access to information and increases operational reliability. Connection to the server is established via TCP/IP protocol using socket mechanism. The program supports work 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". Server configuration is performed through the corresponding parameter file containing user and data lists along with their properties.

OS "Alt SP" is a secure operating system for servers and workstations, certified by FSTEC of Russia (certificate No. 3866). It includes built-in information security tools, making it a reliable solution for working with confidential data. OS "Alt SP" is included in the Unified Register of Russian Software (registration number 4305) and meets security requirements for protected information systems.

OS "Alt Workstation" is a reliable operating system for home and office, compatible with hardware on any processors. The distribution includes an extensive set of application programs, features intuitive navigation and convenient minimalist interface. The system is included in the Unified Register of Russian Software (registration number 1292), fully complies with free license requirements and is available for free use on home PCs (organizations require a license).

Current versions of GIS Server are available for download in the Download section.

Geoportal "Bank of spatial data" has been supplemented with a map of the Lao People's Democratic Republic, 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 GIS WebServer SE version 7.0.0 for Astra Linux Special Edition, Ubuntu, and MS Windows operating systems. The new version allows integration of administration tools with other information systems. Map Editor capabilities have been expanded, and interaction with the National Spatial Data System (NSDS) has been added.

Storing all application settings in the database ensures integration with existing and developing information systems. In addition to the user list, their roles and permissions, storage of all application project settings, layer catalogs and map component data, user session parameters and other metadata has been implemented.

The Map Editor has expanded user data formats for obtaining object geometry (MIF/MID, SHP, GeoJSON, CSV, DXF, SXF). These same formats can be used when publishing layers as part of maps. The shared point editing mode now allows the use of all editable layers.

The ability to connect more than 60 layers of the National Spatial Data System (NSDS) through their publication in GIS WebService SE has been added. Search components and state cadastre information retrieval have been updated.

The possibility of extending server API functionality has been implemented. Users can embed their own PHP components, assign routes to them, and add settings in the Application Administrator.

GIS WebServer SE is used in building closed corporate systems with data protection for classified or commercially confidential information. GIS WebServer SE is implemented using GIS WebToolKit SE toolkit, which can be applied in development tools using JavaScript and TypeScript.

Based on GIS WebServer SE and other server products from KB "Panorama", the Regional GIS of Ryazan Oblast (RGIS RO) has been implemented. RGIS RO is a specialized multifunctional geoportal whose interactive capabilities provide access to reliable information about objects of various categories. RGIS RO is available to a wide range of users – government authorities, citizens, organizations, including potential investors and private companies. The Regional GIS of Ryazan Oblast assists in decision-making across various areas of socio-economic development.

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

Specialists from KB "Panorama" have prepared a video tutorial on working with the "Create polygon by boundaries of surrounding contours" mode, which is part of the toolbar of the "Map Editor" task in GIS "Panorama" and "Panorama-editor". The reviewed mode is used to create a polygon or multipolygon formed by the boundaries of polygon contours and linear objects within a specified closed contour, selected object, or in the map window area around a specified point.

The video tutorial demonstrates three methods for selecting the area for creating a polygon or multipolygon. The first method is area plotting. With this selection, only polygon boundaries participate in the construction. All area objects (polygons) located within the specified contour are cut out. Additionally, polygon construction is performed taking into account pre-selected internal contours.

The second method is plotting by specifying a rectangular fragment while holding the Shift key. Area construction taking into account linear contours is performed when the linear objects necessary for boundary construction do not extend beyond the construction area boundaries or other adjacent polygons (the area is not completely cut).

The third option is plotting with object selection on the map after pressing the "space" key. Construction of a polygon or multipolygon within the boundaries of the selected object on the map is performed.

The training materials can be accessed in the "Video Tutorials" section.
