Description
Label a source's recorded location-precision status.
Community-supplied names, credits, permissions and source versions carry their own authority and context. A recorded access or precision label does not itself grant permission or hide a location. Preserving requested wording and attribution order is distinct from authenticating rights, community approval or adequate protection.
Label a source's recorded location-precision status.
When to use this tool
Use Indigenous Source Location Obscurity Tag when you already have sourceId, recordedLocationPrecision and need to label a source's recorded location-precision status.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter sourceId, recordedLocationPrecision. 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 sourceId nonempty and status exact, generalized, withheld or unknown; format ID [status].1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| sourceId | Source Id | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| recordedLocationPrecision | Supplied descriptive label; no coordinates are rounded, redacted or secured. | Required. Text; one of "exact", "generalized", "withheld", "unknown"; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| label | Label | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
{
"input": {
"sourceId": "S17",
"recordedLocationPrecision": "withheld"
},
"output": {
"label": "S17 [withheld]"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- No coordinates are derived, hidden or generalized; the label does not establish adequate protection or permission to disclose a location.
- 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 the original community-provided permissions, attribution instructions and controlled records for actual use. Apply access and location protection to the underlying material, rather than treating a display mask or status label as the complete safeguard.
