In this session we will review a tool that gives your QAQC team total control and tracking capabilities of the edits that are made within each session/version in a geodatabase. It accomplishes this by analyzing a version before it has been posted to create a textual and graphical report of all edits (additions, changes, and deletions) that have occurred within the version. The edits can be reviewed in a tabular report, visualized on the map, exported to a flat file, or even fed into third party QAQC analysis tool. The functionality can be used manually by your QA team or even automated into a BRP service. Whether your needs are data integrity, user management, or audit control, this tool will never leave you guessing who did what, when, and where…
