Abstract
At IDSTU SB RAS, research efforts in the field of development and use of geoinformation technologies began at the early stages of their application, back in the 1990s. Since then we have developed a number of original geoinformation software libraries and systems, and other software systems that support presentation of information using electronic maps as well as the systems for working with spatial information created using off-the-shelf software solutions. In this article we consider the most interesting of these systems from a historical perspective. We discuss the experience gained in the course of developments, such as: converters between different vector map formats; information and reference systems with map data representation; information-analytical and OLAP systems; systems for Internet/intranet publishing of vector maps; the service for obtaining fragments of vector topographic maps; the original MRG file format for representation of big raster data; an original library for working with triangulations and some its applications; the municipal GIS and the Address Plan of Irkutsk; the system GIS Investor of Irkutsk; the geoportal software developed in the institute; the methods for processing remote sensing data using neural networks, and the digital environmental monitoring platform developed within the framework of a major scientific project “Fundamentals, methods and technologies for digital monitoring and forecasting of the environmental situation of the Baikal natural territory (BNT)”.
