In KB "Panorama" the GIS "Panorama" version 14.0.2 has been developed. In the new version the tools of thematic mapping and display of the statistical information of various purposes have been expanded. With the help of objects of the new "Table" image the various statistical data on financial, environmental, economic, medical, tax, meteorological, demographic topics can be presented, which can be obtained on the websites of the Federal State Statistics Service. Statistical data can be displayed both for Russia as a whole, and for various indicators for municipalities in the Database of indicators of municipalities.Different layers of the map can contain tables for different themes and years. Tables, like other objects, can have visibility scale ranges. At updating the table the data will change accordingly on a map.

To display the table in the desired position, a point object is created that has a link to the CSV file in the semantics and a conventional symbol of the "Table" type. A CSV file is a set of lines containing the values of one or more table fields (columns) separated by symbols - comma, semicolon, tab. The graphic parameters of the table are customized in semantics of the object, in the RSC classifier or in the graphic parameters of the object. The name of file CSV is set in semantics of object "Text file". The table can contain from 1 to 256 columns. Each column allows you to place data of the selected type: text and numerical data, pictures (in PNG, JPG, BMP format), colored figures and percentage scales. The table can consist of one or more pages. The number of pages is set in semantics "Number of table pages". The table width is calculated automatically based on the column widths, taking into account the number of pages and the distance between the pages. If it is necessary to change the width of the table, it can be specified in the "Table width" semantics. To display a part of the data of the CSV file in the table, the semantics "First table row" and "End table row" are specified. Table parameters are customized in the "Editing a table" dialog. Additional elements are created and edited in it: table heading, column headings and subheadings. The table heading is placed above the table and aligned by the first page, or by the width of the table. Columns headings can have several levels. In this case, the upper levels contain the merged headings, the lower ones the simple column headings. Subheadings are placed between the table rows. The subheading status must be specified in a text file (CSV). The map with the created tables will have one view in desktop, mobile, web-applications on any platforms, with local placement or on the GIS Server and at printing. A layer with tables can be opened on top of any other data - spatial databases, geoportals, remote sensing data. The map, together with CSV files and background data, can be packed into one file of SITZ/MAPZ/MPTZ formats.

The "Map Legend" task has been improved. On the "Maps" bookmark, the "Paste selected objects" menu item has been added into the context menu. This mode allows you to paste objects previously copied to the clipboard onto one or several selected maps in the tree.

In the "Select object" dialog on the "Semantics" bookmark, the "Select similar objects" and "Select objects by semantics" items have been added to the context menu. When selecting objects similar to the selected one, a coincidence is checked in terms of the layer, character of localization, the object code and the coincidence of the value of the current semantics or the semantics selected on the bookmark. If the "Semantics" bookmark in the current line has semantics of the type "Link to file", then the context menu will additionally contain the items "Open document in a separate window" and "Add to current document". When you select the appropriate item, a command will be executed to open or add the corresponding data set (vector map, remote sensing data, and the like). In the "Metric" bookmark, the "Display order" item has been added into the context menu for selecting the "Above everyone", "Below all", "Normal" property, which affects the position of an object relative to other objects. When the "Normal" property is set, the display order of the object is determined in the classifier by its layer, type of conventional symbol and localization. In the "Metric" bookmark, the "Save metric coordinates to EPSG:3857" item has been added into the context menu, intended for saving the object metric in GeoJson format in the Mercator projection on the WGS-84 sphere. The received file can be used for addition of objects on the Public cadastral map.

In the "Map Editor", the mode of creating multipolygons, multiline or multipoint objects based on selected objects is implemented, depending on the character of localization of selected objects - areal, linear or point. The metric of the selected objects is combined into one object with common semantics, and the processed objects are deleted. Metric merging is performed only for objects that have the same classification code as the first selected object.

"Show all objects" item has been added into the Options menu. This mode is intended for displaying all map objects without taking into account the range of objects visibility and the contents of the map display. To quickly enable and disable the mode, a combination of hot keys Ctrl+Shift+A has been added.

The task "Data list of maps" has been improved. On the "Matrix" bookmark the call of mode "Optimization of the list of matrixes of quality" mode has been added. Optimization of the matrix of qualities is performed to reduce the file size, as well as to update reduced copies (tiles) of the matrix for different display scales. Reducing the file size is achieved by cutting the image by the specified frame.

The task "Import of vector maps from OSM format" has been improved. Ability has been added to select the main language for creating a map: local (in accordance with the main language of the territory), Russian and English. By default, all names in the source dataset are presented in the national language of the mapped area. However, the additional attribute data may contain names in other languages. If, when importing data, Russian or English is specified as the main language, the semantics of the name will be filled in with the text in the selected language and the titles on the map will be generated in it. In the absence of texts in the selected language for individual objects, it is possible to use the text in the national language.

The "Add photos" task from the "File" menu has been improved. Ability has been added to select and view photos on the map using the key combination Ctrl+Shift+left mouse button. The increase in the image of a photo occurs without increase in the map image. When you resize the dialog box, the photo image is scaled automatically.

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

Specialists of KB "Panorama" prepared and placed the map of the Udmurt Republic on the geoportal "Bank of spatial data". The map was formed using OpenStreetMap data, source data was obtained from Geofabrik website. 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) and was saved into a packed project (MPTZ). The MPTZ format project includes a digital map of the region's territory (country, subject of the federation, administrative region), a map of the administrative-territorial division of the region and a digital classifier. 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 of KB "Panorama" have prepared a video lesson on the formation of an XML document of the land survey plan for the formation of land plot by means of assembly of land plots with cadastral numbers. Users of the "Workstation of cadastral engineer", GIS "Panorama" or "Panorama-editor" can form XML documents of the land survey plan of version 06 using a complex of geodesy calculations.

In the video lesson the features of preparation of the data, a filling the mandatory characteristics and formation of XML file of the land survey plan of version 06 according to the Order of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation from December, 8th, 2015 № 921 have been shown. On the basis of this order in software products of KB "Panorama" the classifier of conventional symbols survey.v5.rscz has been developed. In the classifier there is implemented a general list of layers, semantic characteristics and objects for display of cadastral data on cadastral maps and other cadastral documents.

Land survey plan can be formed for one or several land plots depending on a variant of a selecting the objects on a cadastral map. Procedures the "Formation of electronic XML document by XML scheme of the land survey plan version 06" and "Formation of land survey plan" provides support of formation of the XML document and the paper report by one of the following options:

- one land survey plan for the object selected on the map;

- one land survey plan for the multi-contour land plot;

- one land survey plan for group of the selected one-contour land plots;

- several land survey plans for a group of selected one-contour land plots;

- one land survey plan for one or several created parts of the selected land plot (one or multi-contour).

You can get acquainted with the training materials in the "Video lessons" section.
