Web-based Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC) Data Management System

Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)USPS)

HDM developed a 'State of the Art' automated, web-based QA/QC Data Management System for FEMA's nation-wide digital flood insurance rate maps (DFIRMs). The system enables FEMA flood insurance data contractors to ftp/upload. HDM's software then automatically checks GIS line data topology, metadata and attribute data for accuracy and completeness. An online database of quality results provides users with submission status via email and online status reports. Security functions limit unrestricted viewing and allow FEMA managers to monitor data submission activities and status reports.
