Abstract
Introduction/purpose: The purpose of the paper is to present the importance of geoinformation systems (GIS) in the process of geotopographic support to all levels of command as well as the necessity of developing the GIS platform concept based on geoinformation data as a support to decision making. Methods: Besides an analytical approach to some of foreign experiences in developing GIS and a sample analysis, the authors give the content and the architecture of the adopted program named Development of a special GIS platform for the defense and security of the Republic of Results: The paper presents the structures and the level achieved in the development of the single geographic information platform (SGIP) which aims at helping the state to create modern army and efficiently use geoinformation technologies in the support to the armed forces of Kazakhstan. Conclusion: The importance of creating, at the state level, a unique geographic information space based on the integration of geospatial data at all levels of command has been pointed out as well as the importance of eliminating overspending while creating geoinformation data. In addition, efficient usage of geoinformation technologies will contribute to better combat control of troops and armament thus creating a modern and ready military.
Highlights
Geographic information systems (GIS) are considered as an effective tool for analyzing various types of data in the study of regional development and the development of integrated solutions
A geographic information system (GIS) is a hardware-software human-machine complex that provides for the collection, processing, display and distribution of spatial coordinate data, the integration of information and knowledge about the territory for their effective use in solving scientific and applied problems associated with inventory, analysis, modeling, forecasting, environmental management and territorial organization of society
The success and effectiveness of the use of the geographic information systems (GIS) in many respects depends on a correctly drawn up plan and work rules, which are compiled in accordance with the specifics of the tasks and work of each organization
Summary
Geographic information systems (GIS) are considered as an effective tool for analyzing various types of data in the study of regional development and the development of integrated solutions. GIS occupy one of the leading places among various information technologies in the field of management and planning. A geographic information system (GIS) is a hardware-software human-machine complex that provides for the collection, processing, display and distribution of spatial coordinate data, the integration of information and knowledge about the territory for their effective use in solving scientific and applied problems associated with inventory, analysis, modeling, forecasting, environmental management and territorial organization of society. It is generally accepted that geographic data represent about 70% of the total volume of circulating GIS information. Geographic information systems include five key components: hardware, software, data, performers and methods.
