1. Normalize the incoming place
Keep the original input, normalized form, coordinates, match method, and confidence together. Do not overwrite what the user supplied; reviewers may need to compare it with the resolved place.
2. Choose the smallest useful context
Request only the fields needed for the decision. Smaller responses are easier to verify, reduce licensing exposure, and make it clearer which evidence influenced the agent.
3. Preserve per-field metadata
Store source and timing metadata with each value. If the workflow exports a table or summary, carry that metadata forward or retain a stable reference to the full evidence record.
4. Compute relationships transparently
When ranking by proximity or threshold, record the distance mode, units, candidate set, and any routing assumptions. A nearest result is only meaningful relative to the source inventory that was searched.
5. Review exceptions before action
Build an exception queue for ambiguity, missing coverage, conflicting sources, and values near consequential thresholds. The final interface should show the evidence a reviewer needs without requiring them to reconstruct the pipeline.
