  1. Not started, Which ports in the registry are the same port?Data qualityAnswers

    Find probable duplicates in a facility registry by combining a name match with a distance rule — and separate them from the honest homonyms.

    Data ManagementintermediateDifficulty: intermediate190 XP~30 min4 checks

    You hand in your answers as values.

    Dataset

    • Ports · Point · 1,081 features · EPSG:4326

    What you’ll do

    • Find repeated identifiers in a registry
    • Combine an attribute match with a spatial rule to separate duplicates from homonyms

  2. Not started, Which big cities does the gazetteer not know?Data qualityGeoJSON

    Test one layer's completeness against another: large urban footprints with no populated place inside them at all.

    Data ManagementadvancedDifficulty: advanced300 XP~45 min5 checks

    You hand in a GeoJSON result.

    Datasets

    • Urban areas · Polygon · 2,143 features · EPSG:4326
    • Populated places · Point · 1,251 features · EPSG:4326

    What you’ll do

    • Measure footprint area in an equal-area projection and apply a size floor
    • Test each footprint for containment of any point from a second layer
    • Return the uncovered footprints with the area that says how much they matter
