Why do we need a cross-platform GIS technology system?
In recent years, the core technology of the Internet has developed rapidly, and the types of various basic software and hardware have been continuously updated. Traditional databases cannot meet new needs, and new databases have begun to appear.?To cope with the innovative evolution of the market and meet the diverse needs of users, cross-platform technology has emerged as the times require.?Today, I will share with you the cross-platform GIS technology system of the five major technology systems of the GIS basic software "BitCC".
To put it simply, cross-platform technology mainly refers to a software or application that can be adapted to different hardware devices and operating systems, and supports rich databases.?Hardware devices mainly refer to mobile phones, computers, etc. used in our daily life, and they contain different CPU types, such as our common x86, ARM, etc.?The operating system mainly includes Windows, Linux, etc. on the PC side?, and Android and iOS on the mobile device.?Through cross-platform technology, we can provide unified functions and display effects for our applications in different environments, so that users can use it flexibly and easily.
In order to fundamentally solve the cross-platform application challenges brought about by the rapid development of mainstream information technology, SuperMap has been conducting relevant exploration and practice for many years.?Since 2001, SuperMap proposed "universal GIS", reconstructed the GIS kernel based on standard C++ technology, and established a set of cross-platform GIS technology that supports multiple operating systems, CPU architectures, and databases, which can quickly support new IT technologies.
Technical advantages
SuperMap cross-platform technology is mainly reflected in the technical integration of GIS technology and different CPU architectures, different operating systems and different databases.
Currently, the CPU architectures supported by SuperMap GIS 10i mainly include x86, Power, ARM, MIPS, SW-64, etc. The domestic CPUs include Phytium (ARM), Loongson (MIPS), Shenwei (SW-64), etc.?Recently, SuperMap products officially passed the technical compatibility certification of Huawei TaiShan 100 server based on the Kunpeng chip (ARM), becoming the first GIS basic software platform to pass the test, providing more choices for industrial applications.

2. Operating system
The operating systems supported by SuperMap GIS 10i mainly include Linux, Windows, Android, iOS, etc. Among them, the domestic operating systems include Winning Kylin, Galaxy Kylin, Deepin, Yuanxin, etc.?In 2019, SuperMap officially obtained the Huawei Euler operating system technical compatibility certification report, injecting new vitality into the construction and promotion of localized applications.
3. Database
SuperMap GIS 10i supports file databases, relational databases, and NoSQL databases, such as UDB/UDBX, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, HBase, etc. The domestic databases supported include Renminda Jincang, Hangao, NTU General, Dameng, etc.
Recently, the seamless connection between SuperMap products and Huawei's GaussDB artificial intelligence (AI-Native) database integrates GIS technology into the entire life cycle of distributed databases to achieve self-operation and maintenance, self-management, self-tuning, and self-diagnosis. All-round optimization from performance to computing power.
The successful connection between Ali POLARDB database and SuperMap GIS 10i will bring about a new technological change.?Through the close combination of cloud-native GIS and cloud-native database, it provides a powerful joint solution for localized applications, and promotes the performance improvement of spatial query and spatial analysis in the big data environment.?The picture below is at the 2019 Hangzhou Yunqi Conference. SuperMap provided 4D spatial big data visualization technology support for the practical demonstration of Ali POLARDB, and realized the 4D (3D space + time ) millisecond-level data query of data.
