GIS Independent Innovation Faces Opportunities and Challenges
Academician Xu Guanhua delivered a speech at the meeting. He pointed out that the accelerated integration of geospatial information technology and modern information technology, and the continuous emergence of new business forms and services, has increasingly become an important manifestation of the national scientific and technological competitiveness and national defense competitiveness of various countries. We have made important progress in the field of surveying and mapping spatial geographic information. The performance of UAV aerial photography system, Beidou positioning chip, geographic information system software and technical capabilities of map services have been comparable to the top international products. However, a large number of geographic information data management applications still rely on foreign GIS software, and the independent alternative pattern has not yet been formed, nor has it played a strategic role in international technical checks and balances.
Xu Guanhua said that with the gradual diversification of geographic information applications, geographic information has played an irreplaceable role in serving my country’s economic construction, national defense construction, social development and ecological civilization construction, but there are also some problems. To develop China’s GIS software, we must continue to adhere to the drive of innovation, take the road of independent innovation, accelerate the development of the GIS software service industry, strengthen data opening, standardize the market order of industry development, and accelerate the pace of entering the international market. He called on relevant departments to regard the geographic information industry as a national strategic industry, increase national support for the basic software of geographic information, seize the commanding heights of the geographic information industry, and realize the comprehensive and autonomous replacement of geographic information products as soon as possible. Increase efforts to support the internationalization of independent geographic information software.

Wu Wenzhong, chief planner, delivered a speech at the meeting. He said that surveying, mapping and geographic information work is an important basic work, and that surveying, mapping and geographic information is related to national sovereignty, security and development interests. At the same time, it is a basic and strategic information resource and an indispensable necessity for an information society. In recent years, the technology of surveying, mapping and geographic information has been continuously integrated and developed across borders, and the characteristics of intelligence and ubiquity have become increasingly prominent. He emphasized that in the face of current opportunities and challenges, we should pay attention to three points in the future:
First, we should increase support for domestic high-tech enterprises in surveying, mapping and geographic information in terms of policies and business environment, promote the innovation and development of domestic geographic information technology, and build a platform and create conditions for domestic geographic information technology to go global.
Second, it is necessary to continuously deepen and expand the application fields and application scenarios of geographic information technology, provide powerful and efficient geographic information service support for the modernization of my country’s management system and governance capabilities, and inject new impetus and vitality into the in-depth development of my country’s geographic information industry.
Third, it is necessary to deeply explore the key technologies and scientific mechanisms for the service of surveying, mapping and geographic information in the “two unification” management of natural resources, especially the optimization of natural resources protection and utilization of land and space layout, and resource monitoring and investigation.

GIS builds the foundation of multi-field informatization construction
At present, with the continuous evolution of science and technology and application requirements, the pace of GIS technology innovation is accelerating, and it has played an increasingly important role in building the foundation of informatization. The academicians and experts present at the meeting conducted wonderful discussions on hot topics such as CIM, natural resource informatization, land space, real 3D China, GIS technology and application.
GIS was born out of cartography and inherited the scientific thinking and technical methods of cartography. However, the increasingly rich application scenarios have broken through the underlying logic of traditional maps and challenged the basic capabilities of Map-based GIS. Academician Guo Renzhong said in his report that, from Map-based to Space-oriented and Object-oriented, with the transformation of GIS concepts, the role of GIS in the social field has also changed. It is not only a visualization and analysis tool, but also a It is a carrier of data link and a platform for technology integration. GIS is no longer an exclusive technology in the field of geosciences, but has become a general-purpose technology for the general public. It has entered thousands of industries, and its application scenarios and application models are very different. Cross-border integration is inevitable, and the market will be richer and more diverse.

At present, CIM is facing a development bottleneck. How to improve the application value of CIM? Academician Wu Zhiqiang believes that the combination of CIM and AI is a new breakthrough. In his report, he shared that the cross-generational thinking from history to the future has been integrated into the construction of the first-generation CIM—the command center system of the Shanghai World Expo. “When CIM falls in love with AI”, the biggest improvement is to achieve cross-generational, That is to say, the era of G (Generations) X (Cross) has come. The combination of CIM and AI can not only see the past and future of the city, but also realize the cross-generational digital twin.
