Geospatial data creation and management

Understanding data design is a critical first step in the planning and development process of a geographic information system. The creation of geospatial data and its subsequent storage serves as the foundation of a GIS. It is imperative that these data are prepared following best practices and established data standards to prevent error propagation in workflows, and to reduce the possibility of human error. Earthbound Geospatial employs data accuracy standards, naming standards, metadata standards and data format standards to ensure the longevity and integrity of your data products. Whether your focus is to create spatial data using existing tabular data, images, reports, GPS or other data, or the purchase of data from a commercial third-party vendor, or the incorporation of freely available online GIS data, Earthbound Geospatial will work to guarantee that your acquired data meets the requirements to produce accurate information products. Efficient geospatial data creation will help to alleviate potential problems in subsequent analyses and workflows.
