Data Management

The data management module enables you to easily create, store, manage, and protect various types of data, especially spatial data. Through the comprehensive and flexible management of workspace, datasource, dataset and mosaic dataset, SuperMap ensures safe and efficient usage of all kinds of GIS data. This section includes the following:

  • Data organization structure: Introduces data organization structure, including workspace, datasources, maps, layouts, scenes, etc.
  • Manage workspace: Supports opening, saving, saving as, and deleting different types of workspaces, providing easy-to-use management tools, including catalog management and workspace view.
  • Manage Datasource: The datasource is the medium where the spatial data is stored. Datasource is divided into file database, database datasource and web datasource according to different engine types. In addition to the basic operations such as creating, opening, and deleting datasources, this section also introduces operations such as copying, compressing, and sorting.
  • Dataset management: Supports managing various geographic dataset formats, such as point, line, polygon, text, CAD, 3D point, 3D line, 3D surface, attribute dataset, etc. You can create, open, delete, copy, rename datasets, as well as set datasets compression encode type.
  • Spatial Index: Q-tree index, R-tree index, Mapsheet index and Dynamic index are supported. You can create a spatial index for a dataset, rebuild an existing Spatial Index, and perform other management operations.
  • Image Pyramid Management: Supports creating pyramid for raster image datasets, deleting the existing image pyramid or viewing the image pyramid information.
  • Mosaic Dataset Management: Supports building mosaic dataset and managing massive image data.
  • Streaming Data Management: Supports configuration of streaming data service, sending and receiving real-time streaming data.
  • Data Version Management: Supports registering data versions in PostGIS and Yukon databases to enable multi-user editing of the same dataset. This section also introduces data synchronization, automatic archiving, and the ability to add and view data information at specific points in time.
  • Cloud Storage: Supports viewing and loading image data from the object storage service in cloud storage, as well as storing the results of tiles generation in cloud storage.
  • Database User Management: Supports creating users and roles for PostGIS and Yukon datasources, and granting users or roles editing permissions to datasources/datasets.
  • Database Transaction: Supports the database transaction management of PostGIS database to ensure data integrity.
