| Summary: | Turkish
Topographic Vector Database (TOPOVT) is a 3D vector database comprising
1:25.000 scale or higher resolution topographic features, contours representing
the topography and geographic names. TOPOVT is the basic geographic data source
for our country mapping and base for GIS applications. Feature collection stage
of TOPOVT will soon be completed by covering whole Turkey. The updating works
have already begun and will go on with an acceleration in 2018. Real time or near real time updating of
continuously changing geographic features in our country as far as possible and
avoiding the duplicate geographic data production by governmental institutions
are the main objectives of General Command of Mapping which is the biggest
geographic data producer in basic scales in Turkey.
TOPOVT Real Time Updating
System was designed to provide all governmental institutions and municipalities
producing and using geographic information via internet to update and easily
access to TOPOVT. Most of the TOPOVT features are acquired by governmental
institutions and municipalities according to their needs. TOPOVT Real Time
Updating System is realized to avoid duplicate geographic data production
countrywide and reflect the changes in topography to TOPOVT in real time or
near real time. The software component of the system consists of desktop and
android (or tablets) applications. The desktop application will enable
governmental institutions and municipalities to update TOPOVT in their service
areas according to their job definition without needing another software thus
providing the TOPOVT users to make use of the up-to-date data. Android (tablet)
application will provide the field geographic data collectors to access TOPOVT
directly and to update the data in real time or in near real time unless 3G
internet is available.
By
this system, all the governmental institutions needing topographic database for
their applications will easily reach TOPOVT, make use of the data in their
field works and present the data they produced to country use. Also, by
avoiding the duplicate geographic data production, national sources will be
utilized economically and effectively.
