From 13 to 16 October 2026, specialists from KB "Panorama" will take part in the XII All-Russian Congress of Cadastral Engineers in Kazan. The event will bring together cadastral engineers, heads of specialised companies, government representatives, software developers and real estate market experts to exchange experience and discuss current industry challenges.

The congress programme includes legislative changes, the development of the National Spatial Data System, improvement of the quality of cadastral works and the technological equipment of companies. Participants will discuss software, complex cadastral works, forensic expert activity, the establishment of zones with special conditions of land use, easements, territorial zones and specially protected natural areas. Particular attention will be paid to the development of the cadastral business, in-demand services and the professional competencies of cadastral engineers.

On Wednesday, 14 October, from 9:30 to 12:00 in the Tolstoy Hall of the Korston complex, the technology track "Digital Infrastructure of Cadastral Activity: Equipment, Software Products, Services" will be held. Within the framework of the track, Roman Albertovich Demidenko will deliver a report titled "The KB 'Panorama' Geoinformation Platform for Spatial Data Management".

The report will present an end-to-end technology for the creation, accumulation, publication, processing and analysis of spatial data based on the company's software products. This approach makes it possible to link the preparation and updating of maps, centralised storage of materials, provision of access to users and the collection of operational data in the field.

Participants will become acquainted with the capabilities of automatic generation of digital orthophotomaps and terrain models from UAV imagery, object interpretation and recognition, and generalisation of topographic maps and plans. The use of neural networks for validating XML documents and preparing recommendations for error correction will be considered, as well as for identifying unregistered real estate objects by comparing the cadastral map with current terrain imagery and generating a difference map.

A separate part of the presentation will be devoted to working with state register data: loading cadastral data from the Unified State Register of Real Estate (EGRN) and information on forest objects from the State Forest Register (GLR) from XML, configuring the correspondence of local coordinate systems and reprojecting data on the fly. It is planned to consider the use of satellite and aerial imagery, laser scanning data and geodetic measurement results in solving applied and cadastral tasks.

We invite cadastral engineers, heads of organisations and specialists in spatial data processing to take part in the congress and attend the presentation by KB "Panorama". The detailed programme and registration are available on the event website. We look forward to seeing you in Kazan!

KB "Panorama" has developed the "Panorama Vision" Automatic Recognition and Vectorisation Complex, version 2.0.1. The new version adds support for requests to process large territories. The maximum recognition area is now determined solely by the number of processor units available to the user. A city, region, territory or republic can be selected for processing and submitted to the service as a single request.

To launch recognition, it is sufficient to select a neural network model, specify the area of interest and submit a request. Further subdivision of the territory is performed automatically within the service. The original request is divided into sub-requests of optimal size, which are processed sequentially by the complex. At the boundaries of the sections, the recognised contours are reconciled with one another, which makes it possible to form a single vector map without the gaps that arise during independent processing of individual territories.

During lengthy processing, the user does not need to wait for the entire request to be completed. Intermediate results for already processed sections can be downloaded to a computer and used before recognition of the entire territory is finished. This is convenient when working with regional-scale areas, whose processing may take several days.

The capabilities of the new mechanism were tested during the generation of a forest map of the Republic of Bashkortostan. The recognition area amounted to about 247,000 km?. On a single server, processing took seven days. Based on the recognition results, about 400,000 vector objects of the forest fund were generated. The resulting map was used to supplement OpenStreetMap data.

Support for large territories makes it possible to use "Panorama Vision" not only for local interpretation of individual plots, but also for updating spatial data at the level of cities and regions. The user does not need to independently divide the original territory, create several requests and merge the results obtained — these operations are performed automatically by the service.

The "Panorama Vision" complex makes it possible to vectorise buildings, roads, forest contours, agricultural fields and hydrographic objects (rivers, ponds, lakes and others), as well as to detect vehicles in imagery. The service is located on the Internet on KB "Panorama" servers. Access to the service is provided from the list of applied tasks in GIS "Panorama". The current version of GIS "Panorama" is available for download in the Download section.

Specialists from KB "Panorama" have prepared and placed on the "Bank of Spatial Data" geoportal a map of the Chuvash Republic. The map was generated from OpenStreetMap data. To work with the map, you can use the GIS Panorama Mini program or other KB "Panorama" software products.

The map has been brought into compliance with the modernised classifier of large-scale plans at a scale of 1:5,000 (map5000m) and saved as a packed project (MPTZ). The MPTZ project includes a digital map covering the territory of the region (country, federal subject, administrative district) and a digital classifier. Updates were placed in the bank of spatial data using the Bank of Digital Maps and Remote Sensing Data program. Publication of the contents of the bank of spatial data on the geoportal and access to the data for downloading are implemented by means of GIS WebServer SE.

Free maps based on OpenStreetMap data are available for download on the "Digital Maps" page.

KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.5.6 of the Geodetic Calculation Complex. The new version updates the "Land Survey Project" mode, used to establish the boundaries of land plots allocated against a share from land plots in shared ownership. The procedure for preparing a land survey project for a land plot or land plots is established by Article 13.1 of Federal Law No. 101-FZ of 24.07.2002 "On the Turnover of Agricultural Land". The land survey project is drawn up on paper in at least two copies. The form and requirements for the preparation of the land survey project are defined by Order No. 388 of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation of 03.08.2011.

To load initial information on plots in shared ownership from the Unified State Register of Real Estate (EGRN), the "Reading the Cadastral Plan of the Territory and Updating the Map" mode has been improved. Loading of data from a cadastral extract of a land plot according to the KVZU_v07.xsd schema has been added. Based on the reading results, the land plot and all its external contours are plotted on the map. Attribute information about the land plot is recorded in the semantics of the objects. For streaming loading of several files with updating of the general cadastral map, the "Correspondence of MSC Designations and Reference System Parameters" mode has been improved. For cadastral passports and extracts of land plots, reading of the coordinate system name by its identifier is provided. Since the MSC identifier is unique within a single passport or extract file and may be repeated in other files, this algorithm eliminates errors in establishing the MSC name in different files.

Using the boundaries of the original plots, the design boundaries of the formed plots (allocated against a share) and the modified plots (the remaining undistributed shared ownership) are plotted on the map. Along the external boundaries of all formed and modified plots, an object is created — the boundary of the land survey project. To verify the metrics and attributes of land plots, the "Control of Geometry and Attributes of Objects" mode has been developed, which provides quality control of the cadastral map created according to the survey.v6.rsc classifier. To generate a land survey project, it is necessary to select the "Boundary of the Land Survey Project" object on the map. The program will automatically analyse all objects within it and determine the composition of the original, formed and modified land plots, their external contours and formed parts, including multi-contour land plots and unified land uses. The selection result is displayed in the mode dialog.

The updated "Land Survey Project" dialog displays a hierarchical tree corresponding to the sections of the land survey project, including "Title Page", "Explanatory Note", "Initial Data", "Plots", "Design Plan" and "Text Report". To fill in the general sections of the report, integration with the "Cadastral Works Database" is provided, which makes it possible to centrally maintain information about contracts, customers, cadastral engineers, supporting documents and approval of the land survey project. The visual control function, when the "Follow" option is activated, automatically moves the map and highlights the plot selected in the dialog tree. Connection of graphic files of the design plan is supported, including an overview image and enlarged fragments. Generation of the final text report in DOCX format according to the established form is performed directly from the dialog with the output of a detailed operation log reflecting the progress of data processing.

After approval of the land survey project at a general meeting of shared owners, information about the formed and modified plots can be registered in the cadastral register using the "Land Survey Plan" mode. In the updated mode, the algorithm for searching for adjacent land plots for a multi-contour plot and unified land use has been changed in order to eliminate erroneous identification of the external contours of the plot being refined as adjacent to the same plot.

In the updated "Territory Map-Plan" mode, the generation of the XML document has been improved with regard to the ChangeParcel element "Information about the original land plot which, as a result of transformation, is retained within modified boundaries" for the method of plot formation "Division with modification".

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

Specialists from KB "Panorama" have prepared an educational video for cadastral specialists on validating XML documents against Rosreestr XSD schemas. The lesson is devoted to the "XML Validation against Rosreestr Schema" mode, which is launched in GIS "Panorama" in the "Scripts" section. The tool accesses Yandex AI Studio language models and helps to promptly detect structural violations, type mismatches, schema constraint violations and other errors that may cause an electronic document to be rejected upon acceptance.

The full workflow is demonstrated: selecting the XML file to be validated and the root XSD schema, entering the API key and Yandex Cloud catalog identifier, selecting the text model, launching validation and saving the conclusion. The script independently connects local schemas linked to the root schema via xs:include, xs:import and xs:redefine constructs. First, syntactic validation of the XML is performed, then a request to the service is generated. The waiting time depends on the volume of the document and the associated schemas and may be up to three minutes.

The result is displayed in a structured form. At the beginning of the conclusion, a verdict on the document's compliance or non-compliance with the schema is recorded. For each error, the path to the element in the XML, the actual value, the violated rule and a recommendation for correction are indicated. Warnings are provided separately, including those about missing external schemas and about values that are formally permissible but require the specialist's attention. A brief final summary makes it possible to quickly assess the scope of corrections. The conclusion is saved to a text file and opened in any editor. Credentials and selected model parameters are recorded in encrypted form in the GIS "Panorama" settings file and used on the next launch, so repeated validation is reduced to selecting files and clicking the "Execute" button.

The authors emphasise that the output of the language model is advisory in nature and does not replace certified validation of electronic documents. For preliminary assessment before submitting information, such an assistant reduces the search for reasons for rejection and helps to localise problematic XML fragments without manually parsing the schema through the entire hierarchy of elements.

A continuous process of preparing cadastral documents can be ensured with the help of the "Cadastral Engineer Workstation". The complex covers the path from requesting extracts from the Unified State Register of Real Estate to generating electronic XML files and printed sets of land survey plans, technical plans, maps (plans) and layouts of land plots, so that work does not break down into disconnected operations. In a single window, it is possible to combine the cadastral map, cartographic base, imagery, data from external geoportals and geodetic measurement results, and then validate the created XML against the schemas approved by Rosreestr. The new educational material shows how to supplement this technological chain with intelligent validation and bring the electronic document more quickly to a state suitable for further official validation.

The video material on validating electronic documents for compliance with Rosreestr requirements can be found in the "Video Lessons" section.
