Создание виртуальной модели района Большой Сочи – Красная Поляна – плато Лаго-Наки

The design of ski resorts, considering the surrounding areas and their characteristics, is a complex and multifaceted process that requires taking into account not only the geographical, but also the socio-economic aspects of the region. Along with the assessment within the mountain slopes, the project should assess the features of the development of the territory, its engineering development and other technogenic elements of the anthropogenic impact on the area. Experience in the construction of such facilities indicates that high-precision spatial data on the area of work are in demand by all participants in the processes of economic evaluation of the project and design. This information is used to optimize the location of lifts, driveways, snow gun conduits, landscape design solutions, hotels, restaurants and other residential infrastructure. The most promising method of geoinformation support for such projects today is the selection of complex multi-scale GIS data, including laser scanning with simultaneous planned and inclined aerial photography. Subsequently, these materials, together with highly detailed satellite images of adjacent territories, are used to create virtual models with a set of functions adapted to the needs of users with an average and low level of training in working with spatial data. At this stage, classic full-featured GIS packages have a number of disadvantages. The most common problem for users who have not previously encountered such data is the difficulty in mastering. Full-featured GIS packages can be expensive to purchase, while free solutions don’t provide enough functionality. The use of significant spatial data in a situation where users are located in different locations requires high-speed Internet access, and still does not provide the desired performance and flexibility. The approach to data organization used in this work eliminates the above disadvantages. There is no need to use complex GIS packages. As a replacement, virtual environments are created that are closed from editing and access to the source data. The resulting virtual model of the territories of existing and planned elements of ski clusters is focused on increasing the spatial awareness of users. It was possible to realize the functionality and the possibility of using the model on conventional computers in the mode of combining the high spatial accuracy of the model with its significant territorial coverage (over 25 000 km2).

SPATIAL DATABASES OF AGRONOMIC GEOINFORMATION SYSTEMS

The work is devoted to the development of spatial databases for the assessment of agricultural land. The geodatabase is aimed at geoinformation support of assessment, agroecological typing (groups, types of land) of agricultural lands, development of adaptive-landscape farming systems. The paper presents the structure of the database of regional and local levels. Three different ways of user interaction with the AgroGIS database are proposed. For practical implementation, it is proposed to use the object-functional approach to database development, based on the use of cloud data storage technology in the DBMS SQlite.
 Background. Geoinformation support of agronomic geoinformation systems (AgroGIS) is aimed at assessing natural-territorial conditions and environmental factors in agrolandscapes, development of adaptive landscape farming systems. AgroGIS geodatabases serve to store, analyze and present spatial information on agricultural land. As shown by an analysis of literary sources, the term “geodatabase” was formed more than twenty years ago. At the same time different geodatabases are known: archaeological, cartographic, soil and others. They differ in the object of research, structure and content, as well as the way of data organization. This indicates the relevance of the topics of the present research.
 Purpose. The purpose of the work is to develop the structure and content of the geodatabase agronomic GIS.
 Materials and methods. The object-functional approach to database development, which is supported by object-oriented database management systems (DBMS) and classical relational DBMS, is used. The essence of this approach is to implement functional tasks taking into account the needs of the user.
 Results. The main components of geodatabase in the form of separate sets of spatial classes (Climate, Relief, Soil, Vegetation, Hydrography, Agrolandscape) are proposed. At the same time the paper shows the need for practical implementation of agronomic geoinformation geodatabases from several aspects.
 Conclusion. In the development of spatial databases of agronomic GIS the most important feature is the ability to constantly update information in the form of temporal component. Practical implementation of temporal geodatabases is possible with the use of non-relational database management systems, as well as methods of processing big data (Big Data).
