Powering Decisions with Intelligent Geospatial Data

RMSI brings over 30 years of experience in data creation and management, offering end-to-end geospatial services from data capture and processing to integration, maintenance, and updates. We work with diverse data sources and formats, supporting both proprietary and open-source systems.

Using a consultative approach, we translate client business needs into technology-driven workflows built on RMSI’s proprietary processes and monitored through our QCDS framework. Our government and private sector clients use our geospatial data across desktop, web, mobile, and cloud platforms, delivered through managed services, custom projects, or staff augmentation where security requirements apply.

Our Services

RMSI has developed proprietary methods to enhance, update and maintain geo-databases, which allow us to retain extensive information attached to existing features and vectors, while recreating features from the current imagery and other input sources. Key services include:

Geo-enabling legacy databases
Enhancing existing geo-databases in terms of realigning geometric shapes to ensure positional accuracy, conflation, and retaining and/or updating attribute information
Allowing interoperability of geo-databases for different data formats and software platforms
Consulting assignments for Enterprise GIS database design

Data Migration

RMSI provides services to migrate legacy data for use in modern systems and delivery channels. The processes employed range from consultancy to turnkey implementation. RMSI offers data migration both as a standalone service or as an integrated part of a wider engagement. Key benefits include:

Risk minimisation through robust data validation, workflows, and approval processes
Cost control due to the reduction in migration efforts
End-to-end visibility across tasks and schedules
Simplification in migration processes due to built-in methodology and templates

We offer customized solutions to our clients with value added services, such as modifying a geo-database for a specific country to enable provision of wall, fold, or flip maps, or regional and country map products. Key solutions include:

Data Development – Creating map databases involving creation of RAW GDB, Maplex and Structure GDB
Cartographic Refinement – Geometry cleanup, styling, text tidy, annotation and placement
Layout Design and Indexing – Custom layout creation and preparation of map indexes
Custom Map products – including fold maps, atlas maps, recreation maps

Conflation & Realignment

RMSI has robust workflow processes to conflate various datasets to a geo-referenced landbase and enhance the data using Positional Accuracy Improvement (PAI) techniques.

RMSI has developed ‘ConflateX™’ – a comprehensive data conflation solution that spatially aligns the existing geospatial data to a more spatially accurate landbase / street centerline / aerial imagery ensuring zero loss to data integrity and business downtime.

Consolidation & Integration

RMSI has expertise in consolidating data available from multiple sources, formats or locations into a single comprehensive GIS database, while maintaining the look and feel of the datasets. This unique service offering is extensively used when different parts of the same organization use and/or are responsible for maintaining different elements of the same master dataset, for large initiatives in public sector data sharing and for private data content providers. Consolidation and integration offers the following benefits:

Improves productivity and efficiency
Reduction in operating costs
Easier to meet data protection laws and requirements
Enables use of better customer data to create closely targeted campaigns
