Finding facility type errors

The Multinationa Geospatial Co-production Program (MGCP) product specification contains several facility type attributes for the building feature classes. These fields address the different types of primary building functions that can be identified. When more than one of these fields is populated, conflicts may result.

The Validate Facility Type tool searches the selected building features for attribution errors. When features with errors are found, they are the only ones selected when the process is finished.

The values in the following attributes are validated by the Validate Facility Type tool:
