Geographic information - Quality evaluation procedures (ISO 19114:2003)
ISO 19114:2003 provides a framework of procedures for determining and evaluating quality that is applicable to digital geographic datasets, consistent with the data quality principles defined in ISO 19113. It also establishes a framework for evaluating and reporting data quality results, either as part of data quality metadata only, or also as a quality evaluation report.
ISO 19114:2003 is applicable to data producers when providing quality information on how well a dataset conforms to the product specification, and to data users attempting to determine whether or not the dataset contains data of sufficient quality to be fit for use in their particular applications.
Although ISO 19114:2003 is applicable to all types of digital geographic data, its principles can be extended to many other forms of geographic data such as maps, charts and textual documents.

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.

Introduction
For the purpose of evaluating the quality of a dataset, clearly defined procedures must be used in a consistent
manner. This enables data producers to express how well their product meets the criteria set forth in its
product specification and enables data users to establish the extent to which a dataset meets their
requirements. The quality of a dataset is described using two components: a quantitative component and a
non-quantitative component. The objective of this International Standard is to provide guidelines for evaluation
procedures of quantitative quality information for geographic data in accordance with the quality principles
described in ISO 19113. It also offers guidance on reporting quality information.
This International Standard recognizes that a data producer and a data user may view data quality from
different perspectives. Conformance quality levels can be set using the data producer’s product specification
or a data user’s data quality requirements. If the data user requires more data quality information than that
provided by the data producer, the data user may follow the data producer’s data quality evaluation process
flow to get the additional information. In this case, the data user requirements are treated as a product
specification for the purpose of using the data producer process flow.
The quality evaluation procedures described in this International Standard, when applied in accordance with
ISO 19113, provide a consistent and standard manner to determine and report the quality information in a
dataset.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 19114:2003(E)
Geographic information — Quality evaluation procedures
1 Scope
This International Standard provides a framework of procedures for determining and evaluating quality that is
applicable to digital geographic datasets, consistent with the data quality principles defined in ISO 19113. It
also establishes a framework for evaluating and reporting data quality results, either as part of data quality
metadata only, or also as a quality evaluation report.
This International Standard is applicable to data producers when providing quality information on how well a
dataset conforms to the product specification, and to data users attempting to determine whether or not the
dataset contains data of sufficient quality to be fit for use in their particular applications.
Although this International Standard is applicable to all types of digital geographic data, its principles can be
extended to many other forms of geographic data such as maps, charts and textual documents.
2 Conformance
This International Standard defines three classes of conformance: one for quality evaluation procedures, one
for evaluating data quality, and one for reporting quality information. The abstract test suites for the three
classes of conformance are given in Annex A.

6 Process for evaluating data quality
6.1 General
A quality evaluation process may be used in different phases of a product life cycle, having different objectives
in each phase. The phases of the life cycle considered here are specification, production, delivery, use and
update. Annex B describes some specific dataset-related operations to which quality evaluation procedures
are applicable.
The process for evaluating data quality is a sequence of steps to produce and report a data quality result. A
quality evaluation process consists of the application of quality evaluation procedures to specific dataset-
related operations performed by the dataset producer and the dataset user.
Processes for evaluating data quality are applicable to static datasets and to dynamic datasets. Dynamic
datasets are datasets that receive updates so frequently that for all practical purposes they are continuously
changing. Annex C describes the application of the process to evaluate data quality to dynamic datasets.
6.2 Components of the process
6.2.1 Process flow
The quality evaluation process is a sequence of steps taken to produce a quality evaluation result. Figure 1
illustrates the process flow for evaluating and reporting data quality results.

6.2.2 Process steps
Table 1 specifies the process steps.
Table 1 — Process steps
Process Action Description
step
1 Identify an applicable data quality The data quality element, data quality sub-element, and data quality
element, data quality sub-element, scope to be tested is identified in accordance with the requirements
and data quality scope of ISO 19113. This is repeated for as many different tests as required
by the product specification or user requirements.
2 Identify a data quality measure A data quality measure, data quality value type and, if applicable, a
data quality value unit is identified for each test to be performed.
Annex D provides examples of data quality measures for the data
quality elements and data quality sub-elements given in ISO 19113.
Annex D, by these examples, provides assistance to the user in
selection of a measure.
3 Select and apply a data quality A data quality evaluation method for each identified data quality
evaluation method measure is selected.
NOTE A spatial description of the results (achievable by spatial
interpolation of the results, graphical portrayal, etc.) might be useful,
corresponding not to a result, but to a different, although related, dataset.
4 Determine the data quality result A quantitative data quality result, a data quality value or set of data
quality values, a data quality value unit and a date are the output of
applying the method.
5 Determine conformance Whenever a conformance quality level has been specified in the
product specification or user requirements, the data quality result is
compared with it to determine conformance. A conformance data
quality result (pass-fail) is the comparison of the quantitative data
quality result with a conformance quality level.
7 Data quality evaluation methods
7.1 Classification of data quality evaluation methods
A data quality evaluation procedure is accomplished through the application of one or more data quality
evaluation methods. Data quality evaluation methods are divided into two main classes: direct and indirect.
Direct methods determine data quality through the comparison of the data with internal and/or external
reference information. Indirect methods infer or estimate data quality using information on the data, such as
lineage. The direct evaluation methods are further subclassified by the source of the information needed to
perform the evaluation. Figure 2 depicts this classification structure.

ISO 19114:2003(E)
7.2 Direct evaluation methods
7.2.1 Types of direct evaluation methods
The direct evaluation method is further subdivided into internal and external. All the data needed to perform an
internal direct data quality evaluation method are internal to the dataset being evaluated.
EXAMPLE 1 All the data necessary to perform a logical consistency test for topological consistency of boundary
closure resides in a topologically structured dataset.
External direct quality evaluation requires reference data external to the dataset being tested.
EXAMPLE 2 The data needed to perform a completeness test for the road names in a dataset requires another
information source of road names.
EXAMPLE 3 A positional accuracy test requires a reference dataset or a new survey.
7.2.2 Means of accomplishing direct evaluation
For both external and internal evaluation methods, there are two considerations, automated or non-automated
and full inspection or sampling.
Data quality elements and data quality sub-elements which are easily checked by automated means include
the following:
a) logical consistency: format consistency;
...
