This paper illustrates detailed challenges in bringing exploration data assets into the unified GIS platform. The challenges include study in classifying,categorization of the data, collecting required data for extraction, mapping attributes, developing the attribute-target data model dictionary, capturing the metadata, cleansing against business rules, exact and near de-duplication of data sets, ETL into intermediate database and porting into the required ArcGIS data model.
