| Summary: | This paper describes preliminary work to investigate what it means to manage data quality in a simple data integration and analysis
prototype for research purposes, where input datasets are from a range of different sources. Consideration is given to how standard
elements of spatial data quality (as in ISO 19115:2003) apply in the context of the prototype, which is based on a relatively straight
forward "house hunting" scenario. Based on initial findings the paper aims to position further work, identifying a series of research
questions around needs for improved data quality management and communication in analytical processes involving geographic
information. While not providing solutions or raising novel issues it is hoped the paper may serve to add support for more applied
and user focused data quality research in the area of analytics. |
