Its primary role is to filter raw civic data to retain only regional-grade facilities — hospitals, universities, and major transport hubs — ensuring that GIS tier rankings reflect institutional-level concentration rather than local-service density. ## Filtering Thresholds The service applies attribute-weight filters to the raw civic data provided by `service-fs`: - **Regional hospitals:** minimum capacity threshold (50+ staffed beds). - **Regional universities:** minimum enrollment threshold (1,000+ full-time equivalent students). - **Airports:** validated as major regional transport hubs; general aviation facilities are excluded. ## Spatial Aggregation Large institutional campuses frequently appear in raw open geospatial data as multiple separate points. `service-places` applies a 200 m spatial buffer to cluster these into a single regional anchor with a unified center of gravity, preventing over-counting of large campus footprints. ## Data Output The resulting `cleansed-places.jsonl` provides the regional anchor dataset that `app-orchestration-gis` uses when awarding final co-location tier rankings. ## See Also - [[service-fs-data-lake]] - [[service-business-clustering]] - [[app-orchestration-gis]] --- *Copyright © 2026 Woodfine Capital Projects Inc.
