Arizona DOT chooses 1Spatial technology to validate state road network

UK software firm 1Spatial is to supply Arizona Department of Transport (AZDOT) with its 1Integrate software to enable it to certify and integrate its own road network information with regular updates from multiple contributing government bodies within the state. 1Spatial’s 1Integrate technology will enable AZDOT to automatically quality assure the information it receives from the combination of fifteen counties and seventeen public-safety answering points (PSAPs) by validating it against a set of pre-de

UK software firm 1Spatial is to supply Arizona Department of Transport (AZDOT) with its 1Integrate software to enable it to certify and integrate its own road network information with regular updates from multiple contributing government bodies within the state.

1Spatial’s 1Integrate technology will enable AZDOT to automatically quality assure the information it receives from the combination of fifteen counties and seventeen public-safety answering points (PSAPs) by validating it against a set of pre-defined business rules.

It will also be able to match new data submissions against the current version of the road network to identify changes in geometry and other attributes and apply these changes. This new process will save them a significant amount of time and money over a manual process and also ensure the accuracy of the state-wide data map.

You know you need a global security operations centre (GSOC) to support what you’ve built, identify threats, and prevent disasters before they happen - but how do you know if it’s truly effective? There’s no shortage of information coming into operation centres. Too often, it’s the

This year, those concerns have become reality with landslides, structural collapses and surfacing issues impacting services across the wo
