Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for ingesting data, such as point of interest data. According to certain embodiments, a raw data load transmitted over a network is received from a first data source. The raw data load may comprise a plurality of raw data records, which may be stored in a first database. A first plurality of standard data records previously received from the first data source may be accessed and compared to each of the plurality of raw data records to identify at least one added record. The at least one added record may be compared to a second plurality of standard data records received from a second data source to identify a matching record received from the second data source. The at least one added record may be assigned a key from the matching record. Moreover, the updated information may be sent to an update queue, such that applications may be notified of and receive the updates.
