Geographic information - Quality principles (ISO 19113:2002)

ISO 19113:2002 establishes the principles for describing the quality of geographic data and specifies components for reporting quality information. It also provides an approach to organizing information about data quality.
ISO 19113:2002 is applicable to data producers providing quality information to describe and assess how well a dataset meets its mapping of the universe of discourse as specified in the product specification, formal or implied, and to data users attempting to determine whether or not specific geographic data is of sufficient quality for their particular application. This International Standard should be considered by organizations involved in data acquisition and purchase, in such a way that it makes it possible to fulfil the intentions of the product specification. It can additionally be used for defining application schemas and describing quality requirements.
As well as being applicable to digital geographic data, the principles of ISO 19113:2002 can be extended to identify, collect and report the quality information for a geographic dataset, its principles can be extended and used to identify, collect and report quality information for a dataset series or smaller groupings of data that are a subset of a dataset.
Although ISO 19113:2002 is applicable to digital geographic data, its principles can be extended to many other forms of geographic data such as maps, charts and textual documents.
ISO 19113:2002 does not attempt to define a minimum acceptable level of quality for geographic data.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

ISO 19113:2002(E)
Introduction
Geographic datasets are increasingly being shared, interchanged and used for purposes other than their
producers’ intended ones. Information about the quality of available geographic datasets is vital to the process
of selecting a dataset in that the value of data is directly related to its quality. Data users confront situations
requiring different levels of data quality. Extremely accurate data is required by some data users for certain
needs and less accurate data are sufficient for other needs. Information about the quality of geographic data is
becoming a decisive factor for its utilization as technological advances allow the collection and use of
geographic datasets whose quality can exceed that which is needed and requested by data users.
The purpose of describing the quality of geographic data is to facilitate the selection of the geographic dataset
best suited to application needs or requirements. Complete descriptions of the quality of a dataset will
encourage the sharing, interchange and use of appropriate geographic datasets. A geographic dataset can be
viewed as a commodity or product. Information on the quality of geographic data allows a data producer or
vendor to validate how well a dataset meets the criteria set forth in its product specification and assists a data
user in determining a product’s ability to satisfy the requirements for their particular application.
The objective of this International Standard is to provide principles for describing the quality for geographic
data and concepts for handling quality information for geographic data.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 19113:2002(E)

Geographic information — Quality principles
1 Scope
This International Standard establishes the principles for describing the quality of geographic data and
specifies components for reporting quality information. It also provides an approach to organizing information
about data quality.
This International Standard is applicable to data producers providing quality information to describe and
assess how well a dataset meets its mapping of the universe of discourse as specified in the product
specification, formal or implied, and to data users attempting to determine whether or not specific geographic
data is of sufficient quality for their particular application. This International Standard should be considered by
organizations involved in data acquisition and purchase, in such a way that it makes it possible to fulfil the
intentions of the product specification. It can additionally be used for defining application schemas and
describing quality requirements.
As well as being applicable to digital geographic data, the principles of this International Standard can be
extended to identify, collect and report the quality information for a geographic dataset, its principles can be
extended and used to identify, collect and report quality information for a dataset series or smaller groupings
of data that are a subset of a dataset.
Although this International Standard is applicable to digital geographic data, its principles can be extended to
many other forms of geographic data such as maps, charts and textual documents.
This International Standard does not attempt to define a minimum acceptable level of quality for geographic
data.
2 Conformance
Any product claiming conformance with this International Standard shall pass all the requirements described
in the abstract test suite presented in Annex A.
