Guidelines for Data Consistency with Property-Specific Database |
The following tables describe how Augment defines consistency of data with data in AIR's Property-specific database (PSD). Augment does not generate consistency statistics for all fields, such as for latitude, longitude, building replacement value, and gross area; if the data is inconsistent, Augment updates it.
