Spatial Data Migration

Optimize and migrate spatial data cleanly, consistently, and with confidence.

Overview

Spatial data migration is not just a bulk import. It is an opportunity to clean, validate, and organize data so it can support long-term use.

  • Move data from shapefiles, file geodatabases, spreadsheets, CAD files, legacy databases, or cloud platforms
  • Check coordinate systems, geometry validity, attributes, duplicates, and missing values
  • Map source fields into a clean PostGIS database structure
  • Document what was migrated, what changed, and what still needs attention

LunaGeo helps migrate spatial data with a focus on correctness, maintainability, and confidence in the final result.

Typical Timeline

Many migrations run 2–6 weeks, depending on data volume, complexity, and data quality.

The timeline depends on the number of datasets, source formats, geometry issues, coordinate systems, validation requirements, and target database structure.

This service can be scoped as a one-time migration or as part of a larger database design, LunaCORE implementation, or open source GIS migration project.

Service Description

Clear scope, concrete outcomes, and a realistic implementation path.

When this service is a good fit

  • Spatial data is scattered across files, folders, or legacy tools
  • You need to move data into PostGIS
  • Existing datasets contain errors, duplicates, missing values, or inconsistent attributes
  • You want the migration validated instead of simply imported

What this service includes

  • Inventory of source datasets, formats, coordinate systems, and known issues
  • Target structure planning, schema mapping, and data loading
  • Geometry, attribute, duplicate, null, and coordinate system checks where appropriate
  • Documentation of migrated datasets, field mappings, and unresolved issues

What you receive

  • Spatial data loaded into a clean and usable structure
  • A migration summary showing what was moved
  • Documentation of field mappings, transformations, and known limitations
  • Validation checks to support confidence in the result
