What is ISO 19297-1— Shareable geospatial databases for ITS about?
ISO 19297-1 is the first part of an international multi-series standard that deals with intelligent transport systems.
ISO 19297-1 specifies a shareable geospatial database service framework which intended to enhance user accessibility and interoperability of databases.
ISO 19297‑1 describes the concept, architecture, and characteristics of the shareable geospatial database framework and use cases. It provides an introduction to the standard series and identifies key components of the framework, which will be developed as separate standards.
Note: ISO 19297‑1 does not cover ITS applications or service-specific issues.
Who is ISO 19297-1— Shareable geospatial databases for ITS for?
ISO 19297-1 on shareable geospatial databases for ITS is useful for:
- Geospatial data handling agencies
- ITS application development companies
- Intelligence Agencies
- Marine or Aeronautical Engineers
- Military Organization
Why should you use ISO 19297-1— Shareable geospatial databases for ITS?
The advancement of telecommunication and database technologies has helped the introduction of new types of services such as indoor navigation and multimodal navigation deployed on rapidly proliferating mobile devices such as smartphones.
ISO 19297-1 gives you newly emerging services that require geospatial databases that contain diverse and detailed content beyond the map databases used in current car navigations systems. It specifies the database service framework and the components of the framework based on a federated database architecture commonly adopted to resolve heterogeneousness between databases. It is intended to enhance user accessibility and interoperability of databases.
ISO 19297-1 helps you to improve the interoperability of geospatial databases for both suppliers and user environments, to enable you the usage and sharing of geospatial databases, and to facilitate ITS applications that satisfy market needs.
