DEVELOPMENT OF DOMESTIC GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS IN THE CONDITIONS OF IMPORT SUBSTITUTION
Nowadays, the economy of the country has taken a direction towards import substitution in its development. The development of the domestic information technology and software is one of the priorities. The article analyzes the state of the domestic market, development of geographic information systems developers. The possibility of import substitution of foreign software products by spatial data analogues in Russia is considered. As objects of analysis became programs such as GeoGraf, InGeo, GeoMixer, ZuluGIS, IndorGIS, Panorama. As a result of the analysis we revealed that there are a lot of problems in the way of the full import substitution of foreign GIS, such as the specialization of domestic GIS, a weak marketing strategy for the distribution to market of software products, crudity of interface. However, the potential of development of domestic GIS is very large. One of the main advantages of the Russian information technology in the processing of spatial data is that developers can respond more flexibly to changing market conditions
