Data Models and Interoperability

Overview Software vendors, government organizations, and industry organizations have defined many application-specific data models (those augmenting and built upon internal data models) available for use by specific geospatial disciplines. Application-specific data models are designed to give users "a leg up" in getting their particular application running. Starting with a well thought out model and tweaking it to specific local needs typically shortens the implementation schedule considerably. From the vendor standpoint, these models may make the sales process speedier and more effective.
