The issue of geocoding quality of objects in transport systems

The article presents the issue of object geocoding, which is becoming a significant limitation when using geographic information systems as tools to support the management of transport processes. The concept and structure of a system for verifying the quality of the geocoding process are presented. A review and characterization of the most important systems and services available on the Polish market were carried out. The results of verification experiments carried out based on the built evaluation platform are presented, pointing out the advantages and disadvantages of individual solutions.In the process of economic development, its globalization, and the intensification of transport needs, increasingly advanced tools from the field of information technology are appearing, whose task is to support the management and optimization processes of increasingly complex and dynamic transport systems. The 21st century has brought many new technologies to this issue, among which Geographic Information Systems (GIS) occupy a dominant and extremely dynamically developing position. Although they have been developed since the 1960s [1,2], their current level of popularity is due to advances in map digitization, which can be dated to the turn of the century, and the development of advanced optimization algorithms based on this technology [3,4].
