Specialists from KB "Panorama" have prepared a video tutorial on working with the "Aerodrome Radio Technical Equipment Input" mode of the "Aeronautical Information Document Preparation" applied task in GIS "Panorama". The aerodrome radio technical equipment database is designed to store radio navigation and radar landing aids for the aerodrome. If such equipment is absent, the database is not maintained for the aerodrome. Information entered into the database must comply with the requirements of the "Ground-based Radio Navigation Systems Testing" document for landing navigation aids.

The video tutorial demonstrates maintaining the aerodrome radio technical equipment database, which allows filling in and modifying characteristics of aerodrome instrument landing systems (ILS). For military aerodromes, information on landing radio beacon groups (LRBG) is entered. The form is divided into two parts.

The left part of the form contains a non-editable list of aerodromes and heliports. In the upper part of the left panel, there is a filter that serves to search by aerodrome name and code. The right part of the form is conditionally divided into three parts. The upper part contains a list of all aerodrome landing systems (ILS) and landing radio beacon groups (LRBG) that are deployed and operational at the aerodrome. Decommissioned and reserve landing systems with notes are also entered here. The lower area of the form contains two blocks designed for filling in the characteristics of landing system elements. Characteristics are entered according to the "Aircraft Instrument Approach Radio Beacon Landing Systems" document.

Training materials can be accessed in the "Video Tutorials" section.

KB "Panorama" has developed the "Panorama Vision" automatic recognition and vectorization service version 1.5.0. The new version adds support for REST API protocol for accessing the complex. Using REST API will allow embedding the service into web applications and desktop programs. Working with the service is performed using a request model. The following methods are supported: obtaining a list of available models, obtaining a list of requests available to the user, requesting information about a request, submitting a request, and others. The complete list of available methods can be found at the link. A registration key is required to work with the REST API.

The complex supports processing of terrain images in RSW, JPG, TIFF, PNG formats, as well as data from open geoportals. "Panorama Vision" is capable of recognizing contours of field plots, hydrographic objects (rivers, ponds, lakes and others), buildings and structures, roads, high-stem forests, undergrowth (young tree plantations, shrubs), clearcuts (areas with recently removed forest). Processing results are transmitted to the user as a vector map available for download via WFS protocol. The complex is implemented as services providing remote access to data interpretation. It is located on the Internet on KB "Panorama" servers. Access to the complex is carried out from the list of applied tasks in GIS "Panorama" or using REST API.

The current version of GIS "Panorama" is available for download in the Download section.

Geoportal "Bank of spatial data" has been supplemented with a map of the Dominican Republic, formed according to OpenStreetMap data. 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). 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 from KB "Panorama" have prepared an overview video tutorial on working with the "Emergency Situations Forecasting Complex" application task in GIS "Panorama" and GIS "Operator". The reviewed task allows for building and analyzing mathematical models of emergency situations (ES). Using this complex, it is possible to calculate parameters of damaging factors and construct zones of possible damage in case of emergency situations. The damage zone is plotted on the emergency situation area map with conventional symbols, and a quality matrix (MTQ) is also formed. The calculated indicators obtained as a result of modeling can be saved for their subsequent repeated use.

The digital classifier emercom.v2.rscz is used for the complex operation, designed for creating digital situation maps about emergency situations. The classifier is developed in accordance with the requirements of GOST R 42.0.03-2016 and contains all necessary conventional signs and symbols.

The video tutorial demonstrates the operation of the task toolbar modes and parameter settings for placing saved modeling results. Additionally, the result of emergency situation modeling execution is shown. Using the obtained spatial data, a number of analytical operations can be performed, which increases the effectiveness of measures for protecting population and territories.

The training materials can be accessed in the "Video Tutorials" section.

KB "Panorama" has developed "Cadastral Engineer Workstation" version 15.4.4. The new version implements tools for reading extracts from the state forest register (SFR) about forest quarters and expands cadastral map management tools.

A "Create objects from XML file" mode has been developed. It is designed for importing data from XML files provided by the SFR management system, containing current information about the state of forest areas and plantations. Reading data according to the "Extract from the state forest register about forest quarter" schema is supported — stateForestRegisterExtractForestQuarter_v0.2.0.xsd. The obtained information about coordinates and characteristics of forest quarters is plotted on the map. Information about forest taxation divisions and logging areas located within the forest quarter boundaries is also recorded in the object semantics. The digital classifier forestry.v2.rsc is intended for maintaining forest infrastructure maps. During XML file reading, information about the coordinate system of forest quarter contours is processed. For global coordinate systems, "on-the-fly" coordinate transformation is supported. Data in local coordinate systems is not transformed, while the coordinate system code is recorded in the map object semantics.

The "Reading cadastral territory plan and map updating" mode has been improved. The determination of conditional room coordinates based on the cadastral object within whose boundaries it is located has been optimized. The real estate object or cadastral quarter number is used to form a query to the National Spatial Data System geoportal to obtain object coordinates. Then the central point of the object is calculated, by which the room is plotted on the map.

A new "Batch creation of object sets by semantics" mode has been developed, providing grouping of selected objects into sets by unique value of chosen semantics. The mode allows quick formation of several sets of multi-contour cadastral objects from elements selected on the map – external contours. Objects with the same cadastral number are included in one set.

A context menu has been implemented in the "Geodetic Editor", including names of screen button panels. The menu allows calling a toolbar not by button image, but by the name of the mode group.

The "Map-territory plan" mode has been improved. When generating a text report regarding information about characteristics of the formed plot, insertion of cadastral and other numbers of real estate objects located within the plot boundaries has been added. When generating an act of boundary location agreement, analysis of formed boundaries has been added. Selection of agreed boundaries with formed plots is configured by the user. When generating an XML document, recording of the CadastralErrorEZEntryParcels element has been added – information about refined plots included in unified land use, necessary for correcting registry errors in information about their boundary locations.

The "Boundary plan" mode has been improved regarding the formation of information about clarification of adjacent plot boundaries. For including newly formed contours of multi-contour land plots in processing, analysis of formed adjacent plots with filled "Cadastral number" semantics has been added.

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