  Data Engineering  
 

Getting data in a digital form is just the first step in establishing good catalog process. But the real challenge lies in modeling and mapping your catalog content to a structure, that will help you in creating accurate catalogs at unprecedented speed and efficiency. The Apsiva Data Engineering team takes you to the next step by offering the most comprehensive set of cleansing, normalization and structuring services. We develop and apply the right categories, attributes and standards for your products, and your company, as compared to your industry.

Granular Content:
Rich granular detail that can be easily searched and edited is key for a successful catalog initiative, be it for the Web or Print. Apsiva's content experts aid companies in dicing their content into fine detail that can be easily retrieved and repurposed for unlimited uses.

Ontology/ Classification:
The Apsiva content engineering process includes ontology - the science of information, applied by domain experts and skilled data technicians. Our experts understand the relevant terms that mean business in your industry, plus they know the best-in-class way of classifying product lines per an industry.

Standardization/ Normalization:
What is your standard? Do you use "Inch", " or "Inches" to describe length? Then why does your catalog erratically use all three ways of representing the length in inches? Lack of standards is a key opponent to content. Our team can help you in standardizing your descriptions, units of measure and abbreviations.
