with specific measures during the entire contract period for a US company.
The case is about a US startup company that develops location-based interactive applications. The business is focusing on developing innovative applications that will help users find accurate locations. Moreover, the users can also get a view of the businesses that are close to the user's locations. In short, the company is developing location-based social applications that will show personalized search results. The users will be able to see the map with a 360-degree panoramic view.
The company has an efficient team that provides help in developing the applications. However, due to the increased pressure of work, the company has decided to delegate some work to an outsourcing company. The company wants to map each street in the US through geotagging outsourcing services for developing their applications. AskDataEntry has offered the client geotagging services to manage the maps.
Importance of Geo Tagging Services for Location-based Service Providers
Geotagging as a service is playing a major role in the development of location-based applications. At present, most map-based application development companies prefer to outsource geotagging services. The outsourcing companies hold the expertise to tag map locations in different languages and in different time zones. Further, they use the best technology to tag geolocations with minute details.
The map-based application developers heavily want to integrate real-time images. Therefore, the users can easily view the storefronts and identify each store using the application. With the wide application of geotagging services, developers can integrate 360-degree street view also. Therefore, geotagging services make the map-based application super efficient in terms of providing a detailed picture. Outsourcing geotagging services is the best as it saves costs and makes the application development process accurate.
Issues Faced by the Company
In the past couple of months, the company has increased its working capacity. The company wanted to develop a location-based application for its users. However, the company did not have the manual help that was needed in that project. Therefore, it started hiring freelancers to help them with geotagging services. Soon the company realized that hiring freelancers was not a great idea to get geotagging services. Besides this, the company also has faced many challenges in getting geotagging services; which are,
Gradually, the number of projects has increased over the years due to expertise in mapping skills. As a result, the company was not able to handle the extra burden of work and hence delegated. The company picked up some freelancers to perform all geo-tagging services. However, delegating the task to freelancers possessed risk in the process and the client realized it quite early. Thereafter, the company was searching for an outsourcing geotagging service provider to handle work pressure.
The company has previously hired freelancers for geotagging services. However, the process did not turn out very well for the company as it could not manage the freelancers efficiently. Maintaining the network with the freelancers and then tracking the process became very difficult for the company. Eventually, the company realized that outsourcing the geotagging service was better than hiring individual freelancers.
The company follows a very strict method of working regarding the geotagging services. Also, the company stresses more minute detailing in its geotagging work and wants to make it more detailed. However, no freelancer became eligible to handle the complexities till this point. Hence, the company asked AskDataEntry for their help regarding the geotagging processes.

Like all other processes, we started the work by systematically arranging different elements of the project. The company focuses on managing the map entities accurately to develop map-based applications. Thus, we gave our 100% effort in providing geotagging services to the company. We followed a systematic approach here to meet the requirements of the company smoothly.
We initiated the work by understanding the requirements of the company in detail. Thereafter, we initiated different techniques and frameworks to assess the exact requirements of the project. The company wanted to get accurate images for storefronts with the help of geotags. We measured all the requirements before we started taking the project into our hands.
Once we understood the requirements of the project, we immediately distributed our team for this project. The client demanded to deliver 20 tags per hour so we created a group of 5 members dedicated to this project. Each team member tags 4 locations per hour with accurate specifications. With the help of efficient team members, the process becomes easier for us to complete.
After finishing the tagging work, the team members sent all the work to the QC team. The efficient QC team members reduced the chance of errors in the files and ensured efficiency. The client demanded to maintain an accuracy rate of at least 75% at the beginning. However, the efficient team members have increased the accuracy percentage up to 95% with the QA work.
The client is very strict regarding the geotagging services and demands on-time delivery. Therefore, we maintained a strict regime from our end to maintain the on-time delivery for all our work. We delivered 20 tags per hour and continued the same pattern of work for the contracted period.
