A new automated system for working with topographic maps went to the troops

A new automated system for working with topographic maps, 3D models and satellite images of the terrain has begun to arrive in air defense units and formations. Reported by "News" with reference to the Ministry of Defense.

The military department decided to start equipping with a new system, called the "Unified automated system for providing geospatial information" (EASO GPI), from air defense units and formations. The first EASO GPI received the air defense divisions of the Western Military District - the 2nd Red Banner, which protects St. Petersburg and the 32nd named after A.I. Pokryshkina stationed in Kaliningrad.



The system provides "real-time" access to the most accurate geospatial information: electronic maps, satellite imagery and 3D terrain models via a secure "military Internet". Thanks to this, commanders can more accurately select positions or calculate the direction of a possible strike.

The EASO GUI database is centralized and has several levels of databanks intended for commanders of various levels. Only the General Staff has access to the central base, there are bases at the level of districts and armies, divisions and brigades.

The Ministry of Defense emphasizes that current three-dimensional maps will significantly increase the combat effectiveness of air defense units, especially mobile ones. At the same time, it is specified that new digital technologies will not displace traditional paper maps from the practice of troops for a long time, which, in conditions of suppression of electronic means, may remain the only source of information.

    Good. And overland people also want it very much. And then just over these open spaces and crawl. For this, tablets with the protection of nun, hotsa, and very nana.

      And at least the smallest one, even at the level of a company, we put our guys in the navigator.

    Cool thing for ours. And we also need one with distorted coordinates for Poles, Tribals, Ukrainians and other Geyropeans.

      really, it's funny to read this in relation to Sasplanet or OfflineMaps
      and the program of "General Staff maps" OzyExplore she changes the landscape,

        SAS gives access to the old archive of the General Staff "five hundred meters" in the raster, which is more than 20 years old. Ozi Exploreer works with a raster of the General Staff, which also needs to be converted and "glued", it does not change any landscape when working with a raster. GIS for the military makes new vector maps like "Garminovsky" or OSM, where it can quickly make changes. This is "real time". hi

          Everything is clear, I myself do this for personal use. Sas, ozick, osm.
          The question is, what's innovative and automated here?

            As far as I understand, firstly - the vector "General Staff" maps themselves, and secondly, a program for use with updating the changes on the maps. By the way, I would not mind trying.

      Well, for example, three packs of bricks were delivered to me a year ago, in March 2020. I removed the bricks in September 2020. But on the satellite map, these 3 packs are still at home ... laughing

      I suppose that military satellites and reconnaissance UAVs periodically produce images of certain areas and it is automatically loaded into the EASO GPI. Thus, the system receives fresh data.

    And this, in my opinion, is the most important thing. sad
