Since the beginning of the 21st century, geospatial information technology has been deeply integrated with the Internet, big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, etc., giving birth to new products, new services, new business models, and more deeply affecting economic and social development and the daily lives of ordinary people. Geospatial information will become the infrastructure of the digital economy era like "water" and "electricity", "navigating" for the future

Now, even in an unfamiliar place, people don’t have to worry about getting lost. They can easily find the place they want to go by taking out their mobile phone to locate and navigate. Even, what food and shopping places are around, you can easily find out through your mobile phone.

Today, the professional and mysterious geographical information in the eyes of people in the past is so closely related to real life. From November 19 to 21, the first "United Nations World Geographic Information Conference" with the theme of "Drawing Space Blueprints Together to Build a Better World" was held in Deqing, Zhejiang. Here, not only did geographic information experts and scholars imagine the future, but also various companies exhibited the latest geographical information application results.

Become the infrastructure of the future

Do you understand? Eighty percent of information about human activities is related to geography. Liu Zhenmin, the deputy secretary-general of the United Nations, said that geographic information, like "water" and "electricity," is an infrastructure that will be ubiquitous.

In general, geographic information technology includes geographic information system, remote sensing, Global Positioning System and digital earth technology, and is widely used in economic construction, social development, ecological protection and disaster early warning.

Since the beginning of the 21st century, the deep integration of geographic information technology with the Internet, big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, etc., has given birth to new products, new services, and new business models, and has profoundly affected economic and social development and the daily lives of ordinary people.

Data show that the output value of our country’s geographic information industry has increased by more than 20% for more than 10 consecutive years. As of the end of June 2018, the number of employees in our country’s geographic information industry exceeded 95,000. The total output value of the geographic information industry in 2018 is expected to exceed 620 billion yuan, an increase of 20% year-on-year.

Alibaba CEO Zhang Yong said that in the 19 years since its establishment, Alibaba has grown from a small company to a huge digital economy covering e-commerce, payment, cloud computing, logistics and other fields, which cannot be separated from the support of geographic information technology.

He believes that geographic information technology is the bedrock of the digital economy and will become the infrastructure of the future digital economy.

It is based on this realization that Alibaba acquired Autonavi Maps in 2014. Currently, Autonavi Maps provides real-time traffic conditions in more than 360 cities and all highways across the country, with minute-level updates.

"We provide geographic information services not only for consumers, but also for third parties, and its extended functions such as logistics, food and beverage delivery, driverless driving, and autonomous driving are forming an ecosystem," Mr. Zhang said.

Experts say that geographic information is an important prerequisite for accurately grasping national conditions and strength, a country’s basic and strategic resources, and an important basis for governments to implement development plans, carry out macro-management, maintain national security, and build ecological civilization. It must be fully utilized and made good use of.

Empowering new industries and new business models

At the first United Nations World Geographic Information Congress Technology and Applications Exhibition, more than 200 participating companies showcased their new applications of geographic information technology.

In the southern surveying booth, fixed-wing, multi-rotor and other drones were arranged in sequence; millimeter-level precision surveying and mapping instruments attracted many professionals to stop and visit.

According to Guo Qing, a surveying and mapping staff member in the south, drones can be applied to agricultural insect control, forest fire prevention and many other scenarios to achieve efficient and automated data collection. These jobs that previously required a lot of high-intensity field operations can now be easily completed through drones.

He said that Southern Surveying and Mapping has now created a new model of surveying and mapping engineering in drone aerial surveying, 3D laser scanning measurement, indoor positioning and navigation systems, and developed new business models.

In recent years, gas pipeline leakage and explosion, urban waterlogging, road collapse and other situations have occurred from time to time. How to ensure the safety of the urban underground pipeline network that is beyond people’s sight?

At the Zhengyuan Information booth, staff member Wang Lei introduced that the problem of urban pipeline network safety will be solved in four steps. First, carry out a census of urban underground drainage, gas, heat and other pipelines; second, carry out hidden danger investigation of underground pipelines and surrounding environment to form a pipeline health file database; third, strengthen governance for related problems; fourth, install Internet of Things sensing devices for key locations and equipment of pipelines to realize real-time monitoring of the safe operation status of underground pipelines, so as to improve the safety supervision level of pipelines.

At the JD.com booth, the unmanned delivery vehicle attracted the attention of many attendees. With the support of high-precision maps, this unmanned delivery vehicle can accurately park at the delivery point through autonomous positioning and navigation, and realize point-to-point logistics distribution. According to reports, JD.com unmanned vehicles are currently in operation in Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Guangzhou and other places.

Smart agriculture, smart tourism, smart transportation, smart medical care – geographic information technology is constantly giving birth to new industries and new business models, making cities smarter and people in cities enjoy a more convenient life.

Smart maps are becoming the product of machine learning and the best representation of artificial intelligence, Zhang says. A truly intelligent map knows what you want and can make judgments for you based on your previous behavior.

Derivatives are everywhere.

What can geographic information technology do for cultural heritage protection? At the booth of Guangzhou Ouke Information Technology joint stock company, 360-degree panoramas, three-dimensional models and other forms showed our country’s rich cultural heritage data results, as well as the dynamic protection system of cultural heritage "point-line-surface".

Xiong Aiwu, chairperson of the Guangzhou-based Euco Information Technology joint stock company, said that in the past there were many urban plans, but they were often "separate", and it was inevitable that there would be collisions between plans. By collecting relevant geographical information and integrating cultural heritage data into urban planning, cultural heritage protection was achieved at the planning stage.

In this booth, there is also an interactive experience area, where cultural heritage is disseminated through various forms such as scanning the code to see the building, enhancing the public’s experience.

Through AI (artificial intelligence) technology, land violations and chaos can also be detected early. In the exhibition, the reporter saw that the Land and Resources Bureau of Zibo City, Shandong Province cooperated with Alibaba to realize the automatic analysis, identification and comparison of satellite remote sensing images for the first time in the country using artificial intelligence technology. This move has greatly improved the efficiency of land and resources supervision and law enforcement, shortening the analysis and comparison of remote sensing photos that originally took several months to complete to a few minutes. In this way, the previous punishment for land violations can be turned into intervention in the event.

At the conference, many experts and scholars also mentioned that while the current development of geographic information technology allows people to enjoy convenience, the greatest concern is the security of personal information, including information leakage and the unreasonable use of information.

In addition, the issue of the "digital divide" caused by the level of regional development also attracted the attention of the participating experts. Due to uneven development, it may lead to a widening gap in the application of digital information technology in various regions, eventually creating a vicious circle.

"Let’s use geospatial information to build a safer, better world where no one is left behind." The congratulatory video sent by UN Secretary-General António Guterres to the conference resonated with many attendees, and this may be the direction of future efforts. (Reporter, Huang Xiaofang)

　　Xinhuanet, Beijing, April 12 (Reporter Zhou Xin) Last weekend, two diving star reality shows were broadcast on local satellite TV one after another, which also caused heated discussions. Huang Jianxiang, who hosted Zhejiang Satellite TV’s "China Star Jump", said, "The reality show of diving stars we are now conducting is to convey a message to the audience: diving is a project that can lower the technical threshold and people of different ages and physical conditions can play. As long as you participate in it, there will be progress and gains."

　　After covering many sporting events, Huang Jianxiang has been wondering for many years: what is sports, what is game, and why do English-speaking people always like to say "it’s a game"? According to Baidu search, the explanation of sport is "sports", which can be extended to "entertainment, recreation, game". Game is "competition, game, competition". Both are entertainment and games. But in the past, sports have always appeared on Chinese TV screens with the serious face of "pursuing higher and faster". This time, by hosting "China Star Jump", Huang Jianxiang has a new insight.

　　"Sports is fun, it’s a process of constantly improving yourself compared to yourself. Jumping rope, throwing sandbags, fishing, climbing mountains, swimming, track and field, playing ball are all fun, and it’s all sports. Participating in sports itself is a thing that makes people feel happy." Huang Jianxiang said that the emergence of sports-element variety shows like diving reality shows is a natural thing, which makes the original content increasingly homogeneous TV shows a new bright spot.

　　"Judging from the development trend of international reality TV shows, most of them start with singing and dancing and other talent shows, and slowly transition to skills, and finally to sports, and it is a diving event that Chinese people are good at. This makes me very happy as a sports media person," Huang Jianxiang said. "I don’t want to turn on the TV and there will be an overwhelming number of movies and TV dramas, singing, dancing, blind dates… It seems that only people who engage in literature and art can have dreams. Sports are also dreams. Even if they are not professional athletes, the pursuit of sports by ordinary people is also worthy of respect."

　　In fact, sports itself is the most authentic reality show. There are rules, no director, no script, and you can’t do it all over again. No one knows what will happen in the next second and what the result will be. This is the most touching part of sports. Huang Jianxiang’s most profound memory is the commentary of the men’s double 3m board final at the 2004 Athens Olympics. "No one expected that a spoiler would suddenly burst out of the audience, and no one expected that the Chinese team that was far ahead would score zero points in the final jump, resulting in the gold medal being dropped. All this makes me feel that every game is the most authentic live reality show."

　　"China Star Jump", which began broadcasting on April 6, and then "Star Diving Cube" by Jiangsu Satellite TV, have triggered various heated discussions, including some negative remarks, such as celebrities fighting for their lives and making a fool of themselves… Huang Jianxiang believes that the current reality show of diving stars only hopes to convey a message to the audience: diving can lower the technical threshold, and people of different ages and physical conditions can participate in it.

　　"Diving is an extreme skill sport that must be trained and completed under the guidance of a professional coach. Safety measures must come first. No one will work hard for fun, and so do celebrities. They are very serious when training, and they pay more attention when they are officially recording the program, which inspires the competitive and crazy side of their personality." After watching a lot of star training, Huang Jianxiang did not agree with the star’s statement: "Celebrities are also ordinary people, and they have to’start from scratch ‘in their fields that they are not good at, which can relieve the mystery and alienation of many people about sports. Sports is not’you can only win, you can’t lose’, and there are not various restrictions. Sports are open to everyone."

　　"We want sports variety shows like’Star Jump ‘to convey positive energy – as long as you participate in sports, you can have fun and enjoy it. Of course, different people can find different sports that suit them, and it’s not necessarily all diving," Huang Jianxiang said.

　　China News Service, Beijing, March 26 (reporter, Li Jinlei) Taxi reform is blossoming at the local level, and exploration is moving forward. China News Service (WeChat official account: cns2012) reporter noticed that Shenzhen, Suzhou, Wuxi, Changzhou, Xuzhou, Nanchang, Nanjing, Ningbo, Jinhua, Hangzhou, Yiwu, Wuhan and other more than 10 cities have successively cancelled the paid use fee for taxi operation rights, and implemented free use of taxi operation rights.

　　The free use of taxi operating rights has become a trend

　　In October last year, the Ministry of Transport issued the "exposure draft" on deepening reform and further promoting the healthy development of the taxi industry, proposing to gradually implement restrictions on the period of operation rights and free use. All new taxi operation rights shall be used free of charge, and the main business entity shall not be changed. Local governments shall not introduce new policies on the paid use of operation rights. Where the paid use of operation rights has been implemented, the city people’s government shall consider factors such as fair competition in the market, formulate a scientific and reasonable transition plan, and gradually cancel the paid use fees.

　　Recently, Shenzhen proposed to implement the reform of the taxi industry and realize the free use of operating rights, which attracted attention. China News Service reporters found that in addition to Shenzhen, since this year, Suzhou, Wuxi, Changzhou, Xuzhou, Nanchang, Ningbo, Jinhua, Yiwu and other cities have also implemented the free use of taxi operating rights.

　　Among them, since January 1, 2016, Ningbo and Jinhua have cancelled the collection of paid use fees for urban taxi operation rights, and Yiwu has also cancelled them all. Nanchang also made it clear in February that it will stop collecting paid use fees for taxi operation rights from this year, and will refund the paid use fees for taxi operation rights actually collected in advance after January 1, 2016.

　　Since March 1 this year, Suzhou City, Wuxi City, Changzhou City (excluding Jintan District), and Xuzhou City in Jiangsu Province have stopped collecting paid use funds for taxi operating rights, and implemented free use of operating rights.

　　Earlier, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Wuhan and other cities have introduced policies to stop collecting paid use fees for taxi operation rights from 2015. Among them, Hangzhou also made it clear that the operation rights of taxis are 6 years each.

　　Liu Xiaoming, director of the Department of Transport Services of the Ministry of Transport, said at a press conference during the National Two Sessions this year that the taxi reform has a very clear direction, that is, the right to operate taxis should be free of charge and limited, with the aim of enabling taxi services to enter a virtuous circle and to obtain the right to operate with high-quality services.

　　Or will force companies to reduce "portion money"

　　"I work an average of at least 10 hours a day, the first eight hours are to earn’some money ‘, and the extra two hours are really my income," a taxi driver in Beijing Yinjian told China News Service.

　　Under the background of the impact of the network "special car", the number of passengers and the decline in income, whether the "part money" can be reduced is a particularly concerned issue for the majority of taxi drivers. So, does the cancellation of the paid user fee for operating rights mean that my brothers and sisters don’t have to pay "part money" anymore?

　　In fact, this is not the case. The paid royalties for operating rights are collected by the government from companies, and they are only part of the "part money". Liu Xiaoming revealed that although the standards and items of "part money" vary from place to place, on the whole, it includes vehicle depreciation, insurance, maintenance fees, driver’s basic salary, social insurance, business management costs, taxes, profits, and the allocation of operating rights royalties.

　　However, after the cancellation of the paid use fee for the operation right, the burden of the taxi company will be reduced, and the "part money" will have room to decline. According to media reports, there are 4040 taxis in Wuxi urban area, and the paid use fee is 8,000 yuan per license per year. The cancellation of the taxi operation right use fee is equivalent to an annual profit of more than 30 million yuan.

　　The Jiangxi Daily report also pointed out that the paid use fee for a taxi in Nanchang for 8 years is more than 60,000 yuan, and the paid use fee for 5 years is nearly 40,000 yuan. The implementation of the reduction and exemption of the paid use fee for the right to operate will force the enterprise to reduce the "part money" of the contractor.

　　Data map.

　　"Part money" proposed in many places will be determined through negotiation

　　After all, it is expedient to force enterprises to reduce "molecular money" by canceling the paid royalties for operating rights. How can we truly reduce "molecular money" and reduce the burden on taxi drivers through reform?

　　China News Service reporter noted that the above-mentioned taxi reform exposure draft has proposed to encourage, support and guide taxi companies, industry associations and taxi drivers, trade unions to negotiate on an equal footing, reasonably determine the taxi contractor fee standard or quota task, and implement dynamic adjustments according to factors such as operating costs and freight changes.

　　Some localities have also suggested that "portion money" will be determined through negotiation. On March 24, Shenzhen announced "four measures to streamline administration and decentralize power in the taxi industry to protect the legitimate rights and interests of drivers," including reforming the monthly payment quota ("portion money"), which will be determined by the company and the driver.

　　Hangzhou also proposed to improve the organizational structure of taxi industry associations composed of operators and drivers, and promote the collective negotiation system of industry wages and contract fees.

　　However, when it comes to negotiating to determine "part money", taxi drivers are generally worried that they are a disadvantaged group compared to enterprises, and the final negotiation result may not be satisfactory.

　　In this regard, Liu Xiaoming believes that trade unions should play a very important role in negotiations. In fact, these three parties are more important, one is the trade union, the other is the enterprise’s industry association, and the other is the government, which regulates whether the enterprise has profiteering. Under such circumstances, trade unions and industry associations represent different interests, and the government plays a more regulatory and adjustment role in it. This is conducive to the healthy development of the entire industry and can better safeguard the interests of drivers. (End)
