Congratulations on the Day of Geodesy and Cartography Workers!

13.03.2022

Geodesists and cartographers of Russia celebrate their professional holiday every second Sunday in March — the Day of Geodesy and Cartography Workers, established by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 1867 of November 11, 2000. In 2022, industry workers celebrate their professional holiday on March 13.

The branch of geodesy and cartography has always been and remains strategically important for the state, providing a geospatial basis for decision-making in public administration, the development of the country's infrastructure, in ensuring the defense and security of the state, in the field of navigation services and other areas of activity where reliable information about the terrain is needed. The main task of the industry today is to provide authorities and local self-government bodies, individuals and legal entities with high–quality and up-to-date state spatial data on the terms of accessibility and openness using modern technological capabilities, primarily domestic development.

Employees of the industry annually perform a huge amount of work. In 2021, Roscartography and its subsidiaries completed work on the creation of digital orthophotoplanes (TSOFP) of 1:2,000 and 1:10,000 scales to include them in the Unified Electronic Cartographic Framework (UECO) as part of the implementation of the national project "Digital Economy". The works were carried out on the territories of 33 regions of Russia with a total area of 5502.26 sq. km (for a scale of 1:2,000) and 547.5 thousand sq. km (for a scale of 1:10,000). 

The data obtained will become the basis for the Unified State Register of Real Estate. They will be integrated into the federal system for monitoring the socio-economic development of Russian settlements, will serve to create new geoservices and provide services under the Digital Economy program, and will also be used to solve problems of territorial planning in Russia and attract investment to the regions.

Of course, behind any industry achievements is the conscientious and hard work of qualified and sincerely dedicated specialists.

We sincerely thank our colleagues for their sincere dedication to their work. Congratulations on the Day of Geodesy and Cartography Workers to all specialists, engineers, managers, scientists, teachers, students and veterans of the industry!

We sincerely wish you peace and stability, good health and well-being, professional growth, creative inspiration, new constructive ideas and their successful implementation for the benefit of the development of the domestic geodesy and cartography industry!
