EFFECTIVELY COLLECTING, SHARING & MANAGING DATA
January 22nd, 2009

This day is designed to help you address all the data collection and management challenges you face on a dayto- day basis. Given the current data overload, most organisations find it impossible to cope with the quantity of quality data. This means a lot of data gets lost in the archives and a lot of data is not up to date in databases. Many organisations are unable to exchange information as they don’t have common symbols and data management standards. You will learn how military and civilian organisations effectively share data nationally and internationally. Hear case studies from top level data management professionals covering the following key topics:
