Data Quality in Agriculture Applications

Data quality is a common concern in a wide range of domains. Since agriculture plays an important role in the Brazilian economy, it is crucial that the data be useful and with a proper level of quality for the decision making process, planning activities, among others. Nevertheless, this requirement is not often taken into account when different systems and databases are modeled. This work presents a review about data quality issues covering some efforts in agriculture and geospatial science to tackle these issues. The goal is to help researchers and practitioners to design better applications. In particular, we focus on the different dimensions of quality and the approaches that are used to measure them.
