STANAG 2215

STANAG 2215 evaluation of maps, charts and digital topographic data

Producers of land maps, aeronautical charts and digital topographic data, and the staff who evaluate them.

STANAG 2215 is the NATO agreement on evaluating land maps, aeronautical charts and digital topographic data. NATO has not released it publicly; this page describes it from a public NATO publication that cites it for chart accuracy and quality.

NATO has not released this STANAG publicly. It is NATO UNCLASSIFIED, and organisations that need it obtain it through their national standardization authority.

What it is

STANAG 2215 is the NATO Standardization Agreement on the evaluation of land maps, aeronautical charts and digital topographic data. Edition 7 was promulgated in July 2010, sponsored by MC, MCJSB, JGS. NATO has not released STANAG 2215 publicly, so this page describes it from AGeoP-23, a public NATO publication that cites it.

Where it is cited

AGeoP-23, a public NATO publication that specifies charts, sets its own figures for a chart's accuracy: 90% of planimetric (topographic and aeronautical) features plotted as accurately as source information permits, spot elevations within 100 feet, contours within half the contour interval, then hands off beyond those figures: it states, "For further accuracy measures STANAG 2215 will apply." Later, discussing the quality of the data charts are produced from, it adds, "Refer to STANAG 2215 for acceptable quality limits for topographical and aeronautical information." Together the two citations place STANAG 2215 as the evaluation standard AGeoP-23 relies on for chart accuracy and source-data quality beyond what AGeoP-23 sets itself. STANAG 7164, which adopts AGeoP-23, lists STANAG 2215 among its other related documents, alongside STANAG 2211 (geodetic datums, projections, grids and grid references) and STANAG 2592 (the NATO Geospatial Information Framework).

Put STANAG 2215 on a system that keeps the evidence

Documents, training, risks and evidence in one place, with the trail an auditor asks for.

How we help

A supplier bound by STANAG 2215 through a contract holds the obtained text through its national authority. In ComplyTrain you record the requirements that apply to you as your own requirements, give each an owner, and keep the evidence that shows you meet them against each one.
