KB "Panorama" has completed organizational and technical measures for assessing the conformity of the quality management system (QMS) by the authorized certification body for QMS, LLC "SOYUZSERT," accredited in accordance with Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 546 dated April 30, 2019, in the sphere of the defense-industrial complex. Based on the results, the validity of Certificate of Conformity for the quality management system No. OA OPK.RU.130019SMK0104 dated 10/10/2025 to the requirements of GOST R ISO 9001-2015, GOST RV 0015-002-2020, as well as other state military standards of the SRPP VT, has been confirmed.
KB "Panorama" has developed "Agronomist Workstation" version 15.5.6. The new version expands the tools for remote monitoring of agricultural lands and the preparation of industry-specific documentation. The improved tools help specialists process satellite and aerial survey materials faster, monitor changes in the farm's territory, and formalize survey results.
In the tasks of and , it is now possible to process data strictly within the boundaries of a selected contour. Along with the recognition request, the program transmits the contour of the field, land, or other territory, and the resulting objects are automatically clipped to its boundary. This allows agronomists, land surveyors, and specialists of land control services to exclude neighboring plots from the results and focus on the territory of interest. This approach is useful for clarifying the composition of agricultural lands, identifying changes in land use, and verifying the relevance of the farm's digital map.
Recognition parameters can now be saved in JSON profiles and reused. The profile includes the selected neural network model, object classes, and vectorization parameters. Prepared settings can be transferred between workstations and used for similar surveys of different production areas. This reduces the number of manual operations, ensures uniformity of processing, and simplifies collaboration between agronomic and land surveying services.
For preliminary control of source data, reference objects can be selected using a map filter. Suitable contours are highlighted on the map, saved in the profile, and restored on the next launch. Recognition results are transferred directly to the current map with automatic classifier alignment. As a result, the specialist can more quickly compare objects identified from images with existing information and determine areas requiring desk review or field visits.
Additionally, the preparation of documents on protective plantings has been improved. In the , the generation of survey reports for agroforestry and agrophytomeliorative plantings has been implemented according to the form approved by Order No. 225 of the Ministry of Agriculture of Russia dated April 26, 2024. The program uses the geometry and characteristics of map objects to fill out the report, which facilitates documenting the condition of forest belts and other elements of agricultural land protection.
The updated tools of "Agronomist Workstation" combine remote observation, cartographic analysis, and the preparation of regulated materials. Their use allows specialists to detect changes in agricultural territories more promptly, plan surveys, and keep information about lands and protective plantings up to date.
The new version of the program is available for download in the Download section.
KB "Panorama" has developed version 2.2 for the Android OS. The new version adds a function for quickly creating photographs of objects using the mobile device's camera. The ability to upload and download maps from a virtual folder on the has been implemented. This allows for faster data collection in the field and simplifies information exchange between mobile devices and corporate servers.
The program implements a mode for quickly creating objects with photographs. Now a user can create an object on the map with a photograph by pressing a single button in the mobile application interface. The object is created based on the coordinates of the current location, and a link to the photograph is saved in its attributes. Photo objects can be added both to a new map and to an already open one. In the section of semantic characteristics of the object, the user can view the attached photograph. This approach makes the field photo recording process as fast and convenient as possible in situations where an employee needs to promptly report on work performed with reference to the terrain. For example, couriers and drivers can record the condition of cargo and containers, specialists in construction and housing and utilities can document stages of work, and inspectors and agronomists can note identified violations or the condition of crops. For more detailed work, the user can create objects through the "Templates" panel, combining editing of semantics and metrics in a single interface.
The ability to upload and download maps from a virtual folder on the GIS Server has been added. This functionality is particularly relevant when performing field work. Before departure, the user can download maps of the required territory with objects for inspection, prepared in the office, to the mobile device, and after collecting data, transfer the updated maps back to the server along with created photo objects and attached images. In addition, if a connection is available, maps can be opened directly through a connection to the GIS Server and edited online. This mode allows making changes to maps on the server directly during the territory survey, without preliminary downloading and subsequent uploading of local copies. To place collected data, the user selects a connection to the server and the desired directory in which the map is saved with all accompanying information. This approach allows centralized collection of photo recording results from mobile devices and their use in the office for checking the condition of objects, monitoring work performance, and updating maps. The updated data is available for repeat surveys and further field work.
GIS "Panorama Mobile" for Android is developed based on the GIS Constructor toolkit for Android. GIS Constructor implements extensive capabilities for displaying digital vector maps (topographic, operational situation, nautical navigation, and others) and Earth remote sensing data, performing calculations (coordinate transformation for various coordinate systems, calculating the area and length of an object, building an elevation profile and visibility zone, routing along a road graph, and others). In addition, it provides searching for objects by a specified set of attribute values, creating and editing geodata (adding, deleting, changing coordinates and attributes of map objects).
The new version of GIS "Panorama Mobile" is available on the website in the section and on .
KB "Panorama" has developed version 15.4.4 for the OS "Astra Linux Special Edition", "Alt Linux", "RED OS", Ubuntu, and AlterOS. The new version adds the ability to create custom toolbars combining modes of various tasks and buttons for launching Python scripts. Tools for configuring automatic object recognition on images have been improved, and the retrieval and display of terrain data via the OGC WCS protocol have been accelerated. Tasks for generating contours from elevation matrices, creating minimum flight altitude maps and conventional symbol maps have been implemented, and the functionality of spatial data export tasks to HTML, GML, and GeoJSON formats has been expanded. A customizable grid with object snapping to its nodes has been added, and tools for creating, editing, and searching map objects, spatial analysis, and report preparation have been supplemented.
The ability to create and has been added. Users can create their own toolbars by combining modes of standard tasks , , , modes of the main toolbar, or any implemented application task. Support is provided for placing buttons for launching Python scripts, which allows incorporating custom automation tools into the familiar program interface. The composition and order of tools can be changed, forming a convenient sequence of operations. Combining tools from various tasks on a single panel reduces the number of switches between them and provides quick access to functions necessary for daily work.
In the tasks and , functions for saving recognition parameters and working with request processing results have been added. The changes are aimed at reducing the number of manual operations and improving the convenience of working with the service when processing large territories. When selecting the output area "By Object", the contour of the selected object is transmitted to the server along with the request. At the final stage of processing, all recognized objects are automatically clipped to the boundary of the original contour. This allows interpreting data strictly within the boundaries of the selected object (rather than over a rectangular area), which is especially convenient when processing administrative districts and cadastral contours. A mechanism for saving recognition settings profiles in JSON format has been added. All parameters, including the neural network model, the class of recognized objects, and advanced vectorization parameters, are automatically saved when the dialog is closed and restored on the next launch of the task. In addition, "Save Profile" and "Load Profile" buttons have been added, allowing settings to be transferred between workstations or pre-prepared parameter sets to be used for various types of data.
In the task , it is now possible to select reference objects using a map filter. After configuring the filter, suitable objects are automatically highlighted on the map, which simplifies control of source data before launching processing. All selected objects are also saved in the recognition profile and restored on the next launch of the task. To improve convenience when working with the request list, the ability to delete completed requests via the context menu has been implemented. This allows maintaining the processing list in an up-to-date state and finding necessary results faster. A "Copy Layer to Map" command has also been added, allowing recognition results to be transferred directly to the current map. If the recognized layer was generated for the same map, objects are automatically re-encoded from the panvision.rsc classifier to the classifier of the current map.
The retrieval and display of terrain data requested via the OGC WCS protocol have been accelerated. Visualization is performed taking into account the current map scale: to speed up display, tiles corresponding to the current zoom level are requested from the server. At the same time, for analytical operations - building a terrain profile, querying information at a point, and other calculations - data of the highest resolution is always used. Connection to GIS WebService SE allows quickly obtaining elevation data for the entire globe. For example, the GEBCO layer with a resolution of 15 seconds contains data on ocean bathymetry, including depths, seabed topography, and names of underwater objects, as well as information on the elevation of land and ice surfaces.
In the dialog , the ability to save object attribute tables in HTML and DBF formats has been added. The HTML format provides convenient presentation of data in the form of tables for viewing in a web browser and preparing reporting materials. The DBF format provides the ability to further process exported data in various information systems, databases, and specialized software. XLSX support allows preparing attribute tables in popular spreadsheet editors (e.g., Microsoft Excel or LibreOffice) for performing calculations, analyzing object characteristics, building diagrams, and preparing summary reports. Expanding the list of supported formats simplifies data exchange between various software systems and improves the convenience of using cartographic work results.
The task has been improved. A new mode for saving the appearance (styles) of objects has been added. In this mode, the image of point objects is saved as a picture in the output file. Data is saved to GML format in accordance with the OGC 02-070 version 1.0.0 - SLD (StyledLayerDescriptor) standard. Support for export to GeoJSON format has been implemented, providing transmission of geometry and attribute characteristics of objects for further use in web applications and other geographic information systems. Expanding export capabilities simplifies the exchange of spatial data and their integration into various software systems.
In the task, a mode for applying a geodetic coordinate grid to the inset frame of a map has been added. The coordinate grid is generated with a step specified in the task parameters dialog. A frame is formed around the map inset, on which latitude and longitude values of the generated grid lines are applied. When editing the inset contour or its content (changing scale, moving, and rotating the map), the grid is rebuilt automatically. For the "Edit Inset Content" mode, a new toolbar has been added that appears when the main mode is activated. The toolbar contains auxiliary modes available when editing inset content. Execution of these modes can also be activated by selecting the corresponding menu item that appears when right-clicking or pressing a hotkey.
A task has been developed, providing automatic creation of a vector representation of the terrain from one or more elevation matrices. Users can configure the composition of preliminary data processing: checking and correcting incorrect elevations, smoothing the surface, reconciling with elevation marks and hydrography objects. Smoothing parameters allow regulating the degree of change in the terrain surface. For reconciliation with hydrography, selection of layers and types of objects is provided, including watercourses and water bodies, as well as the use of objects with three-dimensional metrics. Matrix processing and contour generation can be performed independently, which allows taking into account the degree of preparedness of the source data. Results are saved on a separate user map or added to an existing one.
A task has been implemented, which automates the calculation and display of minimum permissible flight altitudes taking into account terrain and artificial obstacles. Joint processing of elevation matrices, elevation marks, and obstacle data allows taking into account the highest objects in each area and the required flight altitude above them. MORA and AMA calculation rules are supported, presentation of results in meters and feet, and formatting of labels in established conventional symbols. Saving information about elevation sources provides the ability to verify results, and hypsometric coloring helps visually assess differences between areas of the territory. Using a pre-prepared base map of maximum altitudes reduces the volume of repeated terrain processing when updating obstacle data.
A task for displaying a grid on a map has been developed, expanding the capabilities of precise object placement and visual control of cartographic data. Users can configure the grid step independently horizontally and vertically in meters on the ground or millimeters on the map, as well as shift its origin. Display is supported with lines, crosses, or dots with a choice of color and element sizes. Semi-transparent display and placement of the grid under objects allow maintaining map readability. Snapping to grid nodes helps organize the position of objects during creation, editing, and movement. The grid can also be used for visual assessment of the density of elevation marks and other objects when checking the design of topographic maps.
In the task, a new mode has been added. The mode is intended for placing an object on the map - an arc defined by three points: the center of the arc, its beginning, and its end. If the map supports geodetic coordinate calculation, constructions are performed on the ellipsoid. If the type of map on which the new object is being placed does not provide the ability to convert from rectangular coordinates to geodetic ones, constructions are performed in the flat rectangular coordinate system of the map. When creating a new object by entering coordinates from the keyboard, it is additionally possible to load coordinates of the object's geometry nodes from SHP, OGC GML, and GeoJSON exchange format files.
A mode has been added for creating area and linear objects from internal contours of one or more objects. When the mode is activated, it is necessary to select the type of objects to be created, then select an area object with subobjects. As a result, new objects will be created for each internal contour of the selected object. To create objects from subobjects of several objects, area objects must be selected before activating the mode. Selection of map objects is performed using the "Map Object Search" dialog or other object selection modes.
A mode has been added. The mode allows deleting subobjects of area objects and additional contours of linear objects within a user-selected area. When processing multipolygons, internal and external subobjects are deleted, except for the main contour. Processing order: when the mode is activated, it is necessary to select the object to be edited, then draw an arbitrary area contour. To finish drawing, double-click the left mouse button - subobjects in the selected object will be deleted. When drawing an additional area for the selected object, subobjects in the new area are deleted.
A task has been developed, allowing automatic creation of a visual catalog of all objects of the selected classifier. Images of conventional symbols are placed in separate frames and accompanied by names, codes, and keys of objects. Such a representation simplifies familiarization with the classifier composition, comparison of conventional symbols, and verification of their design. Users can configure frame sizes for convenient display of cartographic symbols. The generated map automatically opens in the program, providing the ability to view the entire set of conventional symbols without sequentially selecting objects in the classifier editor.
A task has been developed, allowing quick location of objects on the map by a pre-prepared list of names. Users can transfer lists from tables, documents, and other sources via the clipboard. The program compares names with the values of the semantic characteristic "Proper Name" and highlights the corresponding objects on the map. The new mode reduces the time for searching groups of objects and simplifies comparison of external lists with cartographic data. A task for calculating the value of a characteristic at a point has been developed, which allows determining the value of a selected numerical characteristic at a specified map point. This allows taking into account only the necessary data when studying a specific indicator. Obtaining calculated values directly at selected points simplifies the assessment of spatial change in characteristics and the analysis of territories based on data stored in object semantics.
