Field notes
The stated source stack includes assessor and GIS records, county and court sale notices, FEMA flood hazards, utility infrastructure, major projects, nearby services, and zoning. Each candidate is meant to carry source information and a check date; uncertain matches are held for human review against original records. The page says the project starts with Richmond, Henrico, and Chesterfield, and that protected traits are not scoring inputs. Its sample auction calculation is labeled an illustration, not a real parcel.
