Considerations for Harmonising Cross-Border Geospatial Datasets
Résumé
This abstract has presented some of the considerations applicable during harmonisation of different datasets from adjacent countries or different levels of jurisdiction in the same county. Although some of the considerations are built-into current commercial-of-the-shelf GIS, other considerations depend on a user making an informed decision on the appropriate rule to apply to a given data integration scenario; it is envisioned that this abstract will assist organisations in making such an informed decision. Future work within GIS4EU will involve aggregation of supplied datasets using Intergraph Geomedia Fusion software and also development of a geoportal to assist the data harmonisation process.
