Directions of development of the methodological base for working with geodata in promising geoinformation systems

The directions of improving the methodological base for promising geoinformation systems (GIS) are considered. The main subject of consideration are technologies due to the provision of interaction and cooperation in distributed GIS, complex processing of data obtained by various means of remote sensing of the Earth, and functioning of networks of stationary and / or mobile geosensors. The conclusion is made about the expediency of forming an updated set of conventional geographical knowledge (theories and “practices” fixed in the form of standards) taking into account the modern development of models, methods, and technologies for working with geodata which can become the basis for solving popular types of tasks in perspective GIS.
