KB "Panorama" has developed GIS "Panorama Mobile" version 1.12 for the domestic mobile OS Aurora. The new version implements tools for adding objects or sets of objects from object template lines. Import of TIFF format elevation matrices has been added and the list of map types for creation has been expanded.

GIS "Panorama Mobile" allows creating special maps in various subject areas: cadastre, ecology, air navigation, forestry or agriculture, emergency situations, and others. To support the subject area of maps, KB "Panorama" has developed specialized classifiers. The main advantage of mobile GIS is working with maps on location: the user creates, deletes, moves, or edits map objects while in close proximity to them. When working on populating maps, there is often a need to add similar types of objects. Finding and selecting the type of object to create takes more time than the process of adding it to the map. The template panel solves the problem of object selection: it allows saving object types for repeated application. When opening a data set or changing the active map, the "Template Panel" associated with the selected map is automatically loaded. Changing the assigned object is also easy: just hold down the panel button. For planning the placement of objects on the ground or creating map objects from standardized objects, the application of multiple objects together has been implemented. When placing a set of objects on the map, it is possible to change the tilt and position of the set.

The program has added import of TIFF format elevation matrices into the internal format of GIS "Panorama" for accurate data retrieval from elevation matrices in the form of height at a specific point. The imported elevation matrix is saved next to the imported file with the MTW extension. For user convenience, popular map types (for example, Topographic 42 year or PZ-90.11) have been added to the "Create Map" task with the ability to specify a zone. Now you can select the necessary map type without specifying the EPSG code. When adding an object from a CSV file, the ability to specify the "WGS-84 Degrees" coordinate format has been implemented. This allows importing data from many third-party mapping programs.

The complete source code of the GIS "Panorama Mobile" application for Aurora OS is available for review as part of the GIS Constructor toolkit for Aurora OS.

GIS "Panorama Mobile" allows opening and editing the main digital map formats of GIS "Panorama" and popular geoportals on mobile devices based on Aurora OS, processing information from the built-in GPS/GLONASS receiver. Users can prepare the necessary set of spatial data in advance using one of the desktop products (GIS "Panorama", "Panorama-Editor", GIS Panorama Mini) and transfer it to the mobile GIS "Panorama Mobile". Data processing is performed autonomously, without an Internet connection. As the user moves, their current position is dynamically displayed according to coordinates received from the GPS/GLONASS receiver. For convenience, there is an option to synchronize the map position with the current location. To save the coordinates obtained during movement, there is a track recording mode that creates a separate map and plots the movement trajectory on it. Basic information is provided for all map objects during operation. The program was developed based on the GIS Constructor toolkit, which provides components for creating mobile applications for working with digital maps in the C++ programming language using Qt.

Aurora OS is a Russian mobile operating system developed by "Open Mobile Platform" company. The operating system is designed to build trusted mobile infrastructure and protect sensitive information in government organizations, large and medium-sized commercial companies.

Aurora OS allows centralized management of mobile devices and mobile software when using Aurora Center. The current version of the Aurora mobile OS has been certified by the FSTEC of Russia and fully complies with the requirements for "A" type operating systems of protection class 4 and trust level 4.

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

KB "Panorama" has developed an Environmental Tasks Complex for the "Astra Linux Special Edition" operating system. The complex is designed for processing and analyzing data obtained from observation point networks as part of environmental monitoring. The program is installed as an add-on to GIS "Panorama" and allows for rapid assessment of the state of observed processes, phenomena, or events using the results of retrospective analysis of spatial data.

Monitoring measurements can be conducted at both stationary observation points and during field trips. During observation, multiple indicators are recorded simultaneously, allowing for comprehensive characterization of the monitoring object. A flexible settings system makes it possible to group indicators depending on the direction of observations, including monitoring of air pollution, water bodies, soil, subsoil conditions, biological resources, radiation situation, land, permafrost, production and consumption waste, coal dust content, wildlife objects, and other factors. To assess the state of the observation point network, visualization of their scheme is provided, where special symbols on a topographic map display the current status of each point.

Monitoring indicators are recorded using measuring instruments in the form of numerical values. For their calculation, including when assessing territorial changes in observed phenomena and processes, "Panorama Vision" can be used. For example, to determine the area of a flood zone resulting from high water, this product uses neural networks and artificial intelligence technology to interpret photographs (space, aerial, from UAVs) and recognize flood zone boundaries. "Panorama Vision" is a cloud platform solution that can quickly and effectively solve problems of object recognition in images as a digital service.

All monitoring indicators are linked to measurement time, which makes it possible to reconstruct their values at different points in the form of grid models (matrices). Before constructing such matrices, the data undergoes filtering and noise removal using mathematical statistics methods. To analyze changes, isolines and zones with the same indicator values (areas) are constructed.

Matrices, isoline maps, and areas linked to different points in time are combined into sets – time series data. Retrospective analysis tools for monitoring indicators provide joint display of time series matrices, isoline maps, area maps, and graphs of indicator changes at specified observation points. To record analysis results, the generation of reports and analytical summaries is provided.

The new version of the Environmental Tasks Complex for "Astra Linux Special Edition" is available in the Download section.

KB "Panorama" has developed "Workstation of the urban-planner" version 15.4.1. The new version expands capabilities for connecting to geoportals containing layers of urban planning objects and territorial planning. This allows users to obtain up-to-date information about terrain objects at specified locations, which is especially important for working with spatial data used in urban planning activities.

The spatial data portal "National Spatial Data System" contains extensive information, including urban planning data on land plots and real estate objects. Users can request detailed information such as cadastral number, object area, registration date, current status, land category, permitted use type, territorial zone, form of ownership, cadastral value, and other characteristics. This object information is necessary for analysis, planning, and approval of construction projects.

The obtained information is integrated into the "Urban Planning Workstation" database, allowing it to be used for maintaining registries of land plots and real estate objects, forming urban planning regulations, and preparing reporting documentation. This approach significantly simplifies the process of working with spatial data and increases the efficiency of decision-making in urban planning. The "Urban Planning Workstation" provides convenient access to up-to-date information, which contributes to improving the quality of planning and management of urban development processes.

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

KB "Panorama" has developed GIS "Panorama" version 15.3.5 for "Astra Linux Special Edition" OS, "Alt Linux" OS, "RED OS" and Ubuntu (20.04, 22.04). The new version implements tools for controlling vector maps and object label metrics, as well as viewing control results. The tasks for map projection conversion and exporting territorial planning data to GML format have been improved.

The "Check of vector map quality" task is designed to check the correctness of digital data, as well as the completeness and accuracy of semantic and metric descriptions of map objects. It allows for automated correction of errors identified during the control process. Users can work in two modes — data control and editing, with changes being saved to map files in the editing mode. The task performs various types of control, including structural data control, which is always active, and sheet passport control. The mode supports saving and changing the control scheme, providing flexibility in settings for different projects. Control schemes prepared in GIS "Panorama" for Windows can be used during the task operation.

The "Viewing results of check" mode provides tools for detailed analysis and processing of the results of vector map verification and editing. The dialog interface displays error messages, as well as control elements that allow filtering and customizing information output. Each protocol includes a sequential message number, labels, object number, and error text. Important features include the ability to hide corrected errors, as well as customize the display of deleted objects. If necessary, the user can save the results in CSV format or as a data list that will be available for further work. The option of automatic object selection and highlighting them on the map allows for quick navigation through the protocol and detailed analysis of each case.

The "Correction of label metrics and template metrics" dialog provides verification and adjustment of "Label" and "Template" type objects. The task performs alignment of coordinates for non-scalable labels, correction of their length, and smoothing of metrics to create a more fluid shape. Additionally, template processing is provided, including merging lines and labels with the same digitization direction. The correction process is initiated with the "Execute" button and can be interrupted at any time. All changes are recorded in the map protocol, which indicates the number of the corrected object and the nature of the adjustments made.

The "Vector, raster, matrix map conversion" task allows changing the projection, projection parameters, ellipsoid, and datum of the map. This is necessary, for example, for transitioning between different coordinate systems or projections, such as changing the zone of a topographic map or switching from the 1963 coordinate system to the 1942 system. The task dialog consists of two parts: the left side displays the original projection parameters, and the right side offers the ability to modify them. Users can select the desired parameters or copy them from existing maps. After the conversion is complete, the new map will automatically open in a new window, and files will be saved in the user-specified folder.

The "Export territorial planned data in GML" task is necessary for converting maps into territorial planning documents in GML format that comply with the requirements of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation. Users can select a map for export, specify the file name and document type, depending on the type of territorial planning. The export is performed taking into account various classifiers and EPSG codes. The processing displays the number of processed objects and errors, and all messages are saved to a log file. The converter checks map layers for compliance with established requirements, excluding the export of objects that do not correspond to permissible layers.

KB "Panorama" has developed the automatic recognition and vectorization service "Panorama Vision" version 1.2.0. The program has added capabilities for automatic interpretation of roads on satellite images. The new neural network model provides recognition of paved and dirt roads on terrain images with a spatial resolution of 0.6 m/pixel. Satellite images of cities in the Russian Federation were used to train the model.

During the interpretation process, the first stage performs semantic segmentation of roads in the image, creating a raster mask containing marked areas related to the road network. In the second stage, the service identifies the center lines of roads on the resulting mask and vectorizes road objects. During vectorization, automatic "stretching" of roads to intersections with each other is performed within the established distance tolerance (up to 100 m). The map5000m.rscz classifier is used to create the vector map. Paved roads are mapped as linear objects "Highway" with code 61230000, and dirt roads as linear objects "Streets" with code 45200000.

The road network map generated by the service is ready for GIS integration. After loading the map into GIS "Panorama", the following operations become available: building a route between two points, creating an optimal route when visiting multiple points, and building a distance graph. To perform these operations, it is necessary to launch the "Road Graph Editor" task from the "Launch Applications" mode.

Using the "Panorama Vision" service, creating a road network map for an area of 25 square kilometers takes no more than 15 minutes. In addition to road recognition, the "Panorama Vision" service allows recognition of agricultural field contours, hydrographic objects (rivers, ponds, lakes, and others), buildings, and structures. The service is located on the Internet on KB "Panorama" servers. Access to the service is provided from the list of applications in GIS "Panorama": Launch Applications – Automatic Object Creation item. You can also learn about other capabilities of the "Panorama Vision" complex in the article "Artificial Intelligence in Cartography".
