Having problems with your data quality, standards and specifications?
In order to assure that geospatial databases are at a functional scale, consistent, complete, to a known accuracy, and are completely useable by GIS technology, the data must be based on standards and specifications. Therefore, there needs to be:
· Standards for the collection of aerial photography;
· Specifications for aerial triangulation;
· Specifications for softcopy orthophoto mapping;
· Specifications for topographic mapping;
· Specifications for digital terrain models;
· Specifications for digital property mapping; and
· Land and water specifications.
Using these standards it is possible to create digital databases and mapping products for use by the public sector, the private sector and the public to improve understanding and planning. Typical databases and digital map products include:
· Enhanced topography database;
· Digital terrain model database;
· Digital property map database; and
· Softcopy orthophotography database.
Terradigm has specialized expertise in this field that can greatly enhance initial planning and decision-making in the early stages of a project to ensure that costly problems of quality and compatibility do not arise later in the process.
