Description / Method of acquisition

The work began in 2007 and followed these stages:

  • Scanning and georeferencing of the maps for joint operations (JOG AIR) at a scale of 1:250,000, 4th edition.
  • Generation of geospatial databases according to the VMAP Level 1 schema, in ESRI geodatabase format.
  • Collection of geographic information in a geospatial database format, in compliance with the NATO standards in force. The data collection phase for the geographic database was completed in 2008.
  • In 2010, the process of updating the databases began, using aerial photogrammetric records.
