Residents of Tula region will be able to plan trips to the CIS through a single map

Residents of the Tula region received a new digital tool for planning travel, finding work and choosing educational institutions in the countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States. All this information is collected on the Geoportal of the CIS spatial data infrastructure.

The project was the first interstate initiative of the Commonwealth countries in the field of spatial data. As reported in the Department of Rosreestr in the Tula region, the platform has already presented more than 17 million objects distributed in 48 thematic layers.

With the help of an interactive map, users can explore tourist routes, find hotels, get acquainted with cultural heritage sites and monuments. In addition, the resource contains information about higher educational institutions, vacancies and investment sites.

For the convenience of visitors, the portal provides four specialized services: “I am a tourist”, “I am an employee”, “I am an investor” and “I am a student”. They allow you to search for information depending on the purpose of the user, without accessing many individual sites.

The project was coordinated by Rosreestr, which organized the interaction of relevant state structures of the participating countries. The operator of the information system is the public law company Roskadaster.

To date, the geoportal is filled with data from Russia – almost 100%. Information from Belarus and Kyrgyzstan is more than half. By the end of the year, developers expect to connect open data from Kazakhstan and Tajikistan.

In the future, the project is planned to develop as a full-fledged digital atlas of the CIS countries. It should include information about the nature and ecology, demography, economy, history and culture of the Commonwealth States.

Anatoly Gavrilenko, head of the Rosreestr Tula Region Department, noted that the resource can be useful for residents of the region who are going to travel to Russia or CIS countries. According to him, with the help of a geoportal, you can choose a route of various scales - from a trip to a neighboring region to a large tourist trip, as well as choose a university or find a suitable job.

The popularity of the platform is gradually growing: more than 50 thousand users visited it during its work. The geoportal combines information about different directions in one place and allows you to explore the available options using an interactive map.
