Description
Label a supplied household-night status.
Anthropological records preserve reported residence, exchange, use periods, prompt positions and source-qualified terms. Inclusive residence periods count a shared endpoint date, while display-coordinate rounding can still leave a location identifiable. Supplied labels require cultural, historical and consent context.
Label a supplied household-night status.
When to use this tool
Use Household Visitor Resident Night Tag when you already have observationId, reportedNightStatus and need to label a supplied household-night status.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter observationId, reportedNightStatus. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read label. Use the output convention below.
Require observationId nonempty and reportedNightStatus resident, visitor, absent or unknown; append it.1

"input": {
"observationId": "O17",
"reportedNightStatus": "visitor"
},
"output": {
"label": "O17 [visitor]"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- The label records an assertion rather than determining residence, household membership, identity or actual presence.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Consult original field records and community-provided meanings with the stated research method. Evaluate permissions and protection of underlying records; local balances, locators and masks do not establish cultural interpretation, authority or anonymity.
