SINAM GIS Database Solution

Overview of the solution

  • Serves to collect and maintain GIS data.
  • Serves to collect and manage geographical data.
  • In operation for more than 6 years.

Examples of maps

Settlements (Azerbaijan)                                    Roads, Water, Greenness(Azerbaijan)

 

Administrative Division (Azerbaijan and Georgia)                       Land Use   (Baku City)

 

File formats

Database supports output to following formats:

  • ESRI Personal Geodatabase – is the preferred output format due to native ability to contain UNICODE string with Azeri symbols;
  • ESRI Shape (SHP /including UTF-8/) – is supported format due to its popularity;
  • ESRI XML Record set and Workspace - is the XML based format for input-output due to ability to contain UNICODE string with Azeri symbols;
  • Custom Formats – specific formats for navigators, trackers and other tools;
  • SQL with Geo-extension (WKT-formats) – is possible for databases supported Geo-extension.

Coordinate System and Units

Specific local metric projection based on Transverse Mercator and used WGS 84 spheroid is used for precise GIS data processing.

Output data can be in the following projections:

  • WGS 84 Latitude/Longitude;
  • UTM;
  • Former USSR (Gauss Krueger, Krasovsky spheroid);
  • Any ESRI ArcGIS supported projection.

Text encoding – UNICODE (UTF-8) used whenever possible.

Names are given for 5 languages – Azeri, English, Georgian, Russian, and Turkey.

Roads and Road Network

Motor Roads are structured by types:

  • Highways;
  • Main Road;
  • Country Road;
  • Field Road;
  • Earth Road;

Motor Roads are structured by the complex attributes having purpose to be used in path searching and geo coding:

  • Descriptive attributes;
  • Navigation Network attributes;
  • Limitation attributes;
  • Addressing attributes;
  • Networks-Subnets structure.
