NGA is building a Content Maturity Model (CMM) to rate geospatial-intelligence (GEOINT) products, services and data. The CMM concept enables consumers of content to understand its quality and suitability for their mission, and also to have a conduit by which to provide feedback to NGA. The consumer rating capability will improve the feedback mechanism between consumers and producers of content, enabling NGA to provide rapid quality improvements and, subsequently, consumer application corrections. This initiative supports the NGA Strategic Objective on Content by creating and proliferating GEOINT content which is imperative to consumer requirements. CMM data quality components will be searchable, discoverable and provide indicators for consumers which informs them whether or not they are in possession of the best data available. The CMM also supports the Agency’s transformation from a product-focused model to a data-focused provisioning solution. In this new data-centric environment, consumers will be serving or linking to many sources of GEOINT and a mechanism to receive and provide quality feedback will be critical. Consumers require indicators of data quality. The CMM is the means to benchmark geospatial data quality for consumer analysis as well as the data’s own evolution.
