1Spatial, together with DIGITAL-HIVE, has announced the launch of its Geospatial Data Validation Hub, GDV Hub. The company says the ‘one-stop’ self-service portal enables developers, councils and utilities providers to submit and validate their GIS data against industry standards such as A-SPEC and, where appropriate, automatically apply logical corrections.

GDV Hub has been set up to automatically read files in a range of formats, determine which disciplines of the A-SPEC standard validations are required to check against and ensure compliance to the required standard. Users are able to manage their submissions and review the performance of previous submissions using the built-in dashboard. The platform also supports external dashboards such as PowerBI.

The GDV Hub is a SaaS solution and does not require additional software. Users can simply register on the GDV Hub to start validating their design and as-constructed data.
