Sound Data Governance for the NG9-1-1 Public Safety Community of Practice

2:00 pm – 3:00 pm, Bobcat Room | Jeff Young, 1Spatial

Abstract:

This presentation focuses on implementing sound Data Governance NG9-1-1 practices for state, regional, and local public safety organizations to enhance spatially related operational content through automated business rules. 1Spatial provides a National Emergency Number Association (NENA) rules-based automation engine configured to ensure content is fit for purpose, and spatially sound, delivering improved content for the Public Safety community of practice and citizens as applicable, where positional, factual and temporal errors are significantly reduced. Implementations have included data supply chains to feed Spatial Data Infrastructures for US Census Bureau, State of Michigan as well as for several Next Generation 9-1-1 implementations. The solution also provides valuable metrics on the overall health of the data over time. Once data meets an agreed upon threshold of quality it is integrated with multiple other sources of data into seamless organization-wide enterprise databases. Join us to learn about how to implement these methodologies and ultimately improve data quality to support resilient data governance within your organization. Our Statewide NG9-1-1 Automated Rules-based Buildout Solution is being implemented widely including the following States: Arizona, Montana, Minnesota, Georgia and others including our recent multi-year selection by Arkansas’ NG9-1-1 Program last Fall. Join us to learn about supporting resilient data governance within your organization.
