Abstract

A map developer may maintain multiple versions of a geographic database. Example systems and methods manage the propagation of updates to the multiple versions of the geographic databases even when structural (schema) changes have been made between database versions. A computing device identifies a first geographic database with a first schema, and the computing device identifies a second geographic database with a second schema. The second geographic database is a later version of the first geographic database. The computing device applies an update to the first geographic database and applies the update to the second geographic database according to a rule for a difference between the first schema and the second schema.
