SCANNER HMDIF Specification (v01.11)

Published by: PCIS Support Contract, November 2009

Version 1.11

This document is intended for both SCANNER survey contractors and UKPMS developers to provide a formal specification of the data to be provided and the format in which it is to be provided by the SCANNER survey contractor for the loading of SCANNER surveys into UKPMS comparable systems. This document corresponds with Technical Note 3.

There is a need to standardise the HMDIF file format so that users can be confident that the SCANNER survey data will load into their UKPMS system, regardless of which system is used and which survey contractor has supplied the survey data. This specification is also designed to clarify the existing HMDIF format. It is envisaged that changes to improve the existing HMDIF format will be introduced at a later date. It is recognised that it will be necessary to plan future changes well in advance so that all system developers and survey contractors are using the same format specification.
