Data integrity

64/100
CorroboratedData Integrity Index
Independent inspection
Owner self-reported — never independently field-inspected
Location confidence
No coordinate anomaly detected
Terrain cross-check (USGS 3DEP)
FAA 1118 ft MSL · USGS ground 1031 ft · Δ 87 ft
Differential consistent with an elevated / rooftop pad
Structure cross-check (Overture / OSM)
Rooftop pad — the coordinate falls on a building footprint
Building height ≈ 95 ft — measured independently of the FAA record
Cross-source consensus
Corroborated — terrain and structure agree (2/2 sources)

Cross-checked against independent public data — USGS 3DEP terrain, Overture/OSM building footprints, the federal hospital registry, and measured dimensions. The State of the U.S. Heliport Record →

Load-bearing FATO

No heliport precedent — typically the binding gate for rooftop and hospital pads.
Obstruction clearance
High obstacle within 0.5 nm — conflicts with the expanded footprint and 8:1 approach

Measured against FAA pad geometry and federal FATO sizing (EB-105). A dimensional pre-screen — site-level validation required, and independent of the underwriting risk score.

DATA INTEGRITY
Surface elevation
GROUND 1031ftROOFTOP 1126ftbldg ~95ftFAA FILED 1118ft

The FAA record places this pad at 1118 ft. USGS terrain plus the building put the actual rooftop at 1126 ft — a +8 ft difference the federal record doesn’t carry.

eVTOL footprint
FATO 100 ft reqHTLOF 28 ft

The 28 ft pad is 72 ft short of the 100 ft an eVTOL FATO requires (measured).
