AP / Place Authority

Historical gazetteer

One place authority for every layer.

The atlas needs a canonical place table so Armenian, Greek, and Assyrian/Seyfo records can share historical names, modern names, coordinates, confidence, and review status.

Normalization rule

Coordinates are not equal to evidence.

This queue marks whether a place is exact, approximate, regional, proxy, or missing. It is the mechanism that prevents the atlas from visually overstating weak geography.
