Step 1: Check Name and Address
This section will walk you through the process of verifying the name and address of an existing structure point with a red border.
To check an existing structure's information, click on the point to select it. The structure's information will appear on the left side of the imagery. We will be verifying the existing Beach Court Elementary School point in Denver as an example.
Do some research to identify an authoritative source from which you can confirm the name and address. Compare the information entered for the point to the information published by an authoritative source.
NOTE: When editing schools especially, you’ll need to pay close attention to the symbol. An elementary school should be labeled with the Elementary School symbol, a high school should be labeled with the High School symbol, etc. Check out our school type decision tree for more guidance on properly labeling schools.
If the information entered is not correct, update it to reflect the information published by an authoritative source. If the information is not formatted properly, update it to comply with our formatting guidelines.
If the fields are blank, fill in as much missing information as possible. If you are unable to find address information published by an authoritative source, it is acceptable to leave the address fields blank, or to include a single street name or set of crossroads.
To make changes to the name and address fields, click on the Edit Structure button:
