BS ISO 19103:2015

Comprehensive Geospatial Information Standard

BS ISO 19103:2015 is the essential standard for ensuring interoperability and data quality in the geospatial information industry. Developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), this standard provides a conceptual schema language for the modelling of geographic information.

Ensure Interoperability Across Spatial Data and Applications

This standard specifies the rules, structure, and data types for conceptual schemas used in the development of geographic information systems (GIS) and other spatial data applications. By adhering to the guidelines set forth in BS ISO 19103:2015, organizations can:• Achieve seamless integration and exchange of spatial data between different systems and platforms• Maintain consistent data quality and integrity across diverse geospatial datasets• Facilitate the development of interoperable GIS software and applications

Comply with ISO Standards for Geospatial Information

As part of the ISO 19100 series of geographic information standards, BS ISO 19103:2015 ensures that your spatial data management practices are aligned with internationally recognized best practices. Key benefits of compliance include:• Improved data interoperability with other ISO 19100-compliant systems• Enhanced data quality and reliability for mission-critical geospatial applications• Demonstration of adherence to industry-leading standards for regulatory and contractual requirements

Comprehensive Technical Specifications

BS ISO 19103:2015 provides detailed technical specifications for the conceptual schema language, including:• Fundamental data types and structures for geographic information• Rules for defining and using object-oriented conceptual schemas• Guidelines for the application of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) in spatial data modelling• Recommendations for the implementation of conceptual schemas in software systemsBy implementing the guidelines outlined in this standard, organizations can ensure the long-term viability, interoperability, and quality of their geospatial data and applications.

Ensure Compliance and Enhance Spatial Data Management

Adopting BS ISO 19103:2015 is a crucial step in maintaining best-in-class geospatial information management practices. Whether you're developing GIS software, managing spatial data repositories, or integrating diverse geospatial datasets, this standard provides the technical foundation to ensure your systems and processes are aligned with industry-leading standards.
