End-of-contract data extraction
Each user is provided with an isolated installation of the software on a separate virtual machine, so when the contract ends, the users are given an opportunity to download the data before all data is deleted from the machine.
End-of-contract process
At the end of the contract, the service simply terminates on the date on which the client has paid up to. Any business rules that the client has authored can be exported as XML documents so that, upon termination, they can be kept by the client (and used in the client's on-premise 1Spatial software) as they will otherwise be removed from the service.

Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
Whilst some clients will undoubtedly require specific SLA terms, the basic availability offered is based on the "Minutes in the Month" availability principle, with "Monthly Uptime" being the total number of minutes in a given month for which the service is available, and "Monthly Downtime" being the total accumulated minutes that are part of "Minutes in the Month" that have no service access. Downtime excludes announced Maintenance periods.

Monthly Uptime % = 100% - (Minutes in the Month - Monthly Downtime) / Minutes in the Month.

The following Service Levels and Service Credits are applicable to 1Spatial's Cloud-based offerings:

If monthly uptime is less than < 99.9%, a service credit of 10% applies;
If monthly uptime is less than < 99.0%, a service credit of 25% applies;
If monthly uptime is less than < 95.0%, a service credit of 100% applies.

As a standard service, 1Spatial Support is available on normal UK working days, 09.00-17.30.
Approach to resilience
1Spatial's Cloud offerings are all hosted on Microsoft's Azure cloud platform and deployment of multiple engines provides resilience at the session processing level. More information on resilience is available on request.
Outage reporting
Outages are reported via an automated alert service.

Information security policies and processes
1Spatial has developed and implemented a Management System covering both Quality (QMS) and Environmental (EMS) aspects in order to maintain best business practices, better satisfy the requirements and expectations of its customers and to improve the overall performance of the company. It is certified to both ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 by external auditors. Included in this are a number of procedures governing security of 3rd party data, access to services and disposal of equipment. Every employee has a responsibility to follow these procedures, and governance is provided by an internal auditing team, the Senior Management Team and ultimately the Board.

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Our project management model includes formal Change Management/Change Request/Decision Request procedures. When a project is undertaken, the Project Inception and Project Elaboration stages capture and document the agreed scope and approach to change management. In addition, a source code control repository is used to track changes to components and their configuration throughout their lifetime.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
Potential threats and their impact and mitigation are dependent upon each individual client's specific requirements. Security patches are available to deploy as soon as they are tested and released. Security specialist 3rd parties are used to undertake penetration and white-box testing of the software. When hosted by 1Spatial, the Microsoft Azure cloud is used which contains standard vulnerability tools.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
When deployed by 1Spatial, this is provided by Microsoft Azure Cloud Security Center: which is CSA CCM v3.0 compliant. When a project is undertaken, the Project will document the agreed protective monitoring that the individual client specifically requires. Response times will also normally be dependent upon the protective monitoring that the individual client specifically requires. These would normally be based on the standard response times offered by 1Spatial Support.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
1Spatial Support provides a standard support service. This can be extended to include custom requirements in a bespoke SLA. In terms of the standard service, clients report incidents by phone, email, or by logging the incident via the Support Portal. A case number is assigned and a Support Analyst takes ownership. Response and resolution times are based on the category and severity of the incident, as initially assess by the user reporting the incident. All incidents can be reviewed and reported on directly by the user.

Social Value

Fighting climate change

Fighting climate change

Better access to accurate, reliable and available data offers many benefits. Quality data can lead to increased operational efficiencies by reducing the time spent on fixing errors, improved decision-making due to greater visibility over better quality data, and higher levels of compliance with specific rules and regulations. The effective use of accurate, reliable and complete geospatial data can make a significant difference in helping to reduce the impact of climate change. Location data is a valuable source for mapping and monitoring environmental changes and analysing the efficacy of solutions that address climate change challenges. For instance, location data can provide useful insights into coastal and sea-level changes, offering guidance on where and how to position supporting structures in areas suffering from coastal erosion. 1Spatial recognises the importance of climate change as one of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals and is actively involved in working with various public sector clients in helping them reduce carbon emissions and/ or achieve their Net Zero goals. All the G-Cloud services offered by 1Spatial can develop and strengthen national geospatial information management.

Better access to accurate, reliable and available data offers many benefits. Quality data can lead to increased operational efficiencies by reducing the time spent on fixing errors, improved decision-making due to greater visibility over better quality data, and higher levels of compliance with specific rules and regulations. The effective use of accurate, reliable and complete geospatial data can make a significant difference in helping to support Covid-19 recovery. Location data is a valuable source for mapping and monitoring the spread of disease and analysing the efficacy of solutions that address Covid-19. Location data was widely used by the public sector to support response strategies to Covid-19 across the UK. 1Spatial recognises the importance of good health as one of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals and is actively involved in working with various public sector clients in helping them address sustainable development challenges such as reducing carbon emissions or creating sustainable cities. All the G-Cloud services offered by 1Spatial can develop and strengthen national geospatial information management. 1Spatial’s rules-based technology can be configured to support the automated validation, enhancement and cleansing of location data to help improve its quality, accuracy and completeness and support projects that fight Covid-19. For example, 1Spatial’s technology supports Ordnance Survey Ireland’s Prime 2 data which underpinned Ireland’s national Covid-19 Dashboard.
Tackling economic inequality

Tackling economic inequality

Better access to accurate, reliable and available data offers many benefits. Quality data can lead to increased operational efficiencies by reducing the time spent on fixing errors, improved decision-making due to greater visibility over better quality data, and higher levels of compliance with specific rules and regulations. The effective use of accurate, reliable and complete geospatial data can make a significant difference in helping to reduce economic inequality. Location data is a valuable source for mapping and monitoring economic inequality and analysing the efficacy of solutions that address economic inequality. For instance, location data can be used to provide insights into the relationships and trends between household income and economic activity across the UK. For example, Ordnance Survey data, which is underpinned by 1Spatial’s technology is being used by HMRC to increase the take-up of tax credits so that disabled workers, people on low incomes or with responsibility for children can access the benefits they are entitled to. 1Spatial recognises the importance of reducing inequalities as one of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals and is actively involved in working with various public sector clients in helping them address sustainable development challenges such as reducing carbon emissions or creating sustainable cities and communities. All the G-Cloud services offered by 1Spatial can develop and strengthen national geospatial information management.
Equal opportunity

Better access to accurate, reliable and available data offers many benefits. Quality data can lead to increased operational efficiencies by reducing the time spent on fixing errors, improved decision-making due to greater visibility over better quality data, and higher levels of compliance with specific rules and regulations. The effective use of accurate, reliable and complete geospatial data can make a significant difference in addressing equal opportunity challenges. Location data is a valuable source for mapping and monitoring equal opportunity challenges and analysing the efficacy of solutions that are aimed at tackling this problem. For instance, UNICEF is using location data to derive insights into gender-specific challenges among migrant and displaced children of mothers in the domestic care industry where conditions were aggravated during the Covid-19 epidemic due to increased school closures, economic instability, gender-based violence and human trafficking. 1Spatial recognises the importance of providing decent work and economic growth as one of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. It is actively involved in working with various public sector clients in helping them address sustainable development challenges such as creating sustainable cities and communities and reducing carbon emissions. All the G-Cloud services offered by 1Spatial can develop and strengthen national geospatial information management.
Wellbeing

Better access to accurate, reliable and available data offers many benefits. Quality data can lead to increased operational efficiencies by reducing the time spent on fixing errors, improved decision-making due to greater visibility over better quality data, and higher levels of compliance with specific rules and regulations. The effective use of accurate, reliable and complete geospatial data can make a significant difference in addressing wellbeing challenges. Location data is a valuable source for mapping and monitoring wellbeing trends and analysing the efficacy of solutions that are aimed at tackling this problem. For instance, location data can reveal useful information about health behaviour by individuals that visit a gym or about the general wellbeing of a community based on pollution levels in cities. For example, data produced by Ordnance Survey, which is underpinned by 1Spatial’s technology, is being used by NHS Birmingham to pinpoint fast food restaurants near schools to cut down on rising obesity rates. 1Spatial recognises the importance of good health and wellbeing as one of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. It is actively involved in working with various public sector clients in helping them address sustainable development challenges such as creating sustainable cities and communities and reducing carbon emissions.
