The house style requires an explanation for a GIS term on first use. Three terms had no explanation where a reader first met them. - The About page gives the full name, Certified GIS Professional, and states what the certification requires. The acronym appears in the footer of every page but was never expanded. Source: the GIS Certification Institute. - The reservoir note explains an acre-foot on first use. - The WUI note explains the Wildland-Urban Interface in its first sentence. The Involvement page and the notes index already did. This closes section 4 of the content backlog. No project fact, date, award, authorship, or source claim changed. Checks: node --check, html-validate 11.6.2 over 28 files, git diff --check, and a link and anchor audit of every page. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Section 1 said the site records a date for two notes. It records a date for three. The note agentic-ai-lessons added one on 2026-08-24. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Twelve 2024 30 Day Map Challenge notes take the date of their challenge day. The theme named in each note gives the day number. Four of the twelve dates agree with a LinkedIn post date or with an original file name. The sidewalk and trails note takes the date of its LinkedIn post. The feed now reports 5 notes with no date, down from 18. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013U3nrgWnFMyZPQYPd4treP
The dashboard now reads 639 snow measurement sites. Three places on the site said 637. Source: the published snow_sites.json, field site_count. The figure caption keeps 637 because it reports a past measurement. The atlas page keeps 637 inside generated data. The redistricting note takes 2022-02-18, the publication date of the linked StoryMap. The feed now reports 4 notes with no date.

The site described itself as cartography and geospatial data science. The work is now mostly application development, so the page title, the meta descriptions, the home page heading and lede, and the footer line lead with geospatial web development. Cartography stays, because two maps are Esri User Conference finalists. The home page lede also no longer joins two independent ideas with an em dash, which the house style does not allow.

A comparison of the LinkedIn profile against the notes directory found five projects that the profile states and the site does not describe. Four are municipal work. The Experience Builder widget is held until the owner asks the City of Millcreek, as decided on 2026-08-28. Each item needs a permission answer and an image before a draft starts, which is the same rule that section 7 already uses. The publication date questions now ask for the four dates that are still missing instead of eighteen.

Every organization and issuer on the page was named with no link. A reader could not check a credential or find a group. The certifications table, the service headings, and the structured data now carry the official address for each one. Each address was opened and confirmed. The Salt Lake Area GIS Users Group uses its Google Sites address, because slug-gis.info no longer resolves. Two other fixes. The notes index had no og:image, so a shared link showed no picture. The sitemap did not list the water dashboard atlas page. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013U3nrgWnFMyZPQYPd4treP
Seventeen notes now show a publication date. The date is a time element in the meta grid on the note, and a second line on the notes index card. Four notes still have no date and show none. The involvement page adds the American Association of Geographers and Gamma Theta Upsilon, with their addresses and structured data. The snow site figure now says 639 in the roster. The roster, the daily payload, and the atlas snapshot each hold a different number, so the site must say which one it means. The backlog records all three.

The redistricting note got a date in a later commit on this branch, after the earlier count correction. The summary line still said 13 of 18 notes and 5 with no date. It is 14 of 18, and 4 with no date, which matches the output of scripts/build-feed.mjs and the count in docs/interview-questions.md. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The site left several general readers without support, and had three kinds

requires one.
