OGC Validation Tool
summary
A cloud SaaS called Essential Geometry Validator ingests ESRI File GeoDatabase, ESRI Shapefile, GeoJSON and GeoPackage, then validates geometries against OGC Simple Features and other rules, producing a downloadable defect report plus graphical error highlights on a map. The tool runs on a proprietary rules engine, offers a drag‑and‑drop upload and one‑click workflow, handles 3D and complex mixed geometries, and is free only to users of the underlying platform, so it is not an open source validator.
