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.
