There are some cases where LPAs have corrected data errors but not updated the
entry-datevalue for a record. This can mean the correct value may not be surfaced because the facts end up with the sameentry-datevalue.E.g. entity 1735506 has (two facts)[https://www.planning.data.gov.uk/fact/?dataset=brownfield-land&entity=1735506&field=point] for the point field. For one of the facts the point value longitude coordinate is missing a negative symbol which causes the point to wrongly end up on the sea. The mistake was corrected in Sept 2024 and has appeared on multiple subsequent resources, but this is not being surfaced due to the identical entry-dates for each fact.
Keeping the entry-date the same here feels reasonable as the change is for a data entry mistake rather than a change to the brownfield-land site. Could the
start-dateof the resource be used as an additional sort critiera for facts so that in this case the most recent fact is surfaced on the entity page, even though the record entry-dates are the same?Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
