Data Quality Health Check Lab

The Data Quality Health Check Lab, an initiative for the 2008 Conference, will be hosted by independent consultants Salford GIS and gives attendees the chance to bring their own sample spatial data to the Conference and have it put through a series of standard tests to assess its overall quality.  Delegates will be shown how to run tests themselves and will receive a report detailing the results.

Standard datasets will be available but delegates are encouraged bring their own spatial data on DVD, CD, or other storage media*.  All popular spatial data formats will be supported including:

- ESRI Shape

- MapInfo TAB

- Oracle SDO_Geometry.

The Data Quality Health Check Lab offers a unique opportunity for delegates to examine ways to assess spatial data quality in a highly practical environment and to try out different techniques for themselves on their own datasets. Salford GIS Consultants will be on hand to explain the tests and to provide support to delegates. Participation is free throughout the duration of the conference but delegates are asked to pre-book time slots by emailing conference@1spatial.com

*Please note that data tested by delegates and the results of the tests will not be stored or shared.
