New progress has been made in the data element business of SuperMap software

Since the official establishment of the National Data Bureau on October 25 last year, the work of data elements has been accelerated. At the end of last year and the beginning of this year, the National Data Bureau and a number of ministries and commissions jointly issued a three-year action plan for the "Data Element ×", and various localities began to collect relevant cases; The Ministry of Finance issued the "Interim Provisions on the Accounting Treatment of Enterprise Data Resources", which has aroused repercussions among enterprises, and in the first quarter of 2024, some listed companies have tried to do the work of data assets in the table.

In the field of geographic information, the huge market potential of spatio-temporal data elements is also facing the problem of how to solve the problem. During the 2024 Spatial Intelligence Software Technology Conference, Jacky Li, Chief Engineer of SuperMap Software and Vice President of Natural Resources, Housing and Construction and Big Data Product Line, introduced how spatio-temporal data elements in the field of geographic information form a "flywheel effect", and how SuperMap Software thinks about data elements and business development.

The front line of digital intelligence has learned that SuperMap Software has made new progress after setting up a new organizational structure this year and vigorously promoting the data element business.

01 How geographic information data elements form a flywheel

Jacky Li pointed out that to play the "flywheel effect" in the field of geographic information data resources, it is necessary for systems, technologies, talents and other aspects to promote each other.

Among them, technology is an important starting point for the value exploration of data elements. At the technical level, it includes several major topics, such as how to converge, integrate and associate data through the "central kitchen" of data governance, and carry out spatiotemporal data governance based on geographical location; How to connect the supply and demand of the governed data resources to meet the needs of business scenarios, and form data element products through online deep processing, should be based on the unified spatio-temporal base platform and data element service supermarket for safe operation of shelves, circulation, and transactions, so that data can be better "supplied", "retained" and "used well".

"We don't think technology alone is enough, or it's incomplete." Jacky Li further said that the value exploration of data elements also requires professional and technical personnel such as chief data officers and big data analysts, as well as the introduction and implementation of relevant systems and norms to promote the authorized operation of data elements and circulation transactions as a guarantee.

02 How to develop data element business with SuperMap

Vigorously developing the data element business has become a key task of SuperMap. To this end, in 2024, SuperMap will set up a R&D and marketing engineering team of data element sub-product line under a new matrix architecture, which is committed to developing a data governance, development and utilization and transaction service platform based on location services, and providing full-stack data element solutions, exploring the data element service model operated in cooperation with relevant departments such as data bureaus/data groups/data exchanges, and striving to build a leading location-based data governance solution and data element operation service provider.

In fact, as early as 2014, SuperMap proposed the concept of "spatial intelligence", which is the ability to extract information and knowledge from spatial data and use it to express, manage, design, and even control the world. The "Spatial Intelligence Pyramid" of SuperMap extends from the underlying geospatial visualization, geospatial perception, geospatial decision-making, and geospatial design to the topmost geospatial control. To release the value of data elements, spatial intelligence software technology is an important support.

Jacky Li told the Digital Intelligence Frontier that in the entire data element industry chain, there are many links that Supermap can participate in.

First of all, SuperMap is a consulting service provider in the data element industry. Based on more than 20 years of experience in smart city and industry construction, SuperMap can provide consulting and design services related to data elements, such as top-level design related to data elements, standard creation and data asset entry into tables.

Secondly, SuperMap is also a technical service provider for the new infrastructure of data elements. For the aggregation, governance, development and utilization of data elements, SuperMap has developed a set of location-based data element governance and service platforms, which can provide users with a unified spatio-temporal framework base platform, location-based data element governance toolset, and data resource and asset engineering services on demand.

Thirdly, SuperMap can also cooperate with data groups and data exchanges to jointly build a special area/supermarket for data element circulation and trading space, and become an operator. For the circulation, transaction, security and operation of data elements, SuperMap has developed a set of data element operation control and circulation trading platform to support the circulation and trading of data elements, meet the needs of the government, enterprises and the public, promote the efficient circulation and utilization of data resources, create typical data application scenarios, accelerate the release of the value of data elements, and serve high-quality development.

At the same time, SuperMap is also a provider of data element products. SuperMap integrates the data element products, tools and application scenarios of the group's internal production and natural resources, housing and construction users and third-party ecological partners to form data element products, which have been listed and traded on the data exchange.

In fact, SuperMap has made progress in all of the above links. Jacky Li introduced that in recent years, especially after the establishment of the National Data Bureau, data groups, data exchanges or trading centers have been established in various places, and on the basis of the original sharing and openness, they have begun to explore the authorized operation of public data and explore the "new model" of data element services.

At present, SuperMap has served more than 50 data bureaus in more than 100 cities, actively following up user needs, giving full play to the advantages of spatial intelligence, and successively signing strategic cooperation agreements with Taizhou, Jiangsu, Hohshi, Inner Mongolia and other cities, jointly building characteristic zones with dozens of domestic data exchanges/data trading centers, and jointly building the geographical space-time zone of Shaanxi Silk Road Data Trading Center with Shaanxi Digital Group. SuperMap has also joined a number of data element ecological alliances or spatial data element innovation centers to jointly explore the industrialization of data elements.

In terms of specific cooperation content, it includes the combination of local data element consulting and design, table entry services, and local data resource governance, productized processing engineering services, as well as the unified spatio-temporal base platform of smart city and the data element circulation supermarket, as well as the construction of natural resources, urban governance, emergency and meteorological application scenarios combined with Supermap's own advantages.

At the same time, SuperMap has more than 3,000 independent cooperative ecological partners, with rich partner types and capabilities, covering all aspects of upstream data collection and production, downstream government affairs and enterprise applications in thousands of industries. SuperMap's service network in more than 100 cities across the country and its rich industrial chain ecology can better serve users, create a win-win data element industry, and promote user success.
