Estimating the Completeness of a Mapping Database
CASE STUDY: Estimating the Completeness of a Mapping Database Statistical Analysis, Sampling and Estimation Client: Ordnance Survey Role: Egerton Consulting was appointed to review the existing method of sampling and estimation used to assess the level of completeness of mapping data held by the client. Result: A more economic sampling method was developed to achieve the required levels of accuracy, and new methods developed for the e cient estimation of several new performance measures. We have been applying the statistical model for measuring current performance you provided for us and we have run a pilot audit to allow direct comparison. The results produced to-date show that they compare very closely with each other. Steve Cowell Accreditation Manager Ordnance Survey
