Usage & Business Rules

Scraper Interaction

Because location data is frequently updated by the Scraper, be cautious when adding manual overrides to these records. Any data that is added independently will stay untouched by the scraper.

API conversion

Location data is the same as Hall data on the VierNulVier API. We have chosen to merge Hall, Location and Space into one Location object.
