Evidence register

Every number should carry its provenance.

This is the production registry for the focused Decision Pack—not a catalogue of experimental modules. It states coverage, publication and ingestion dates, licence obligations, and freshness.

Launch data gate

Configured and current

All required datasets are live or within their freshness threshold.

Reading this as a home seeker? This gate tracks whether a source is configured and fresh in this deployment — it does not mean your comparison is wrong. Where evidence is missing, the result shows it as unavailable instead of estimating. See the plain-language source notes.

Coverage across all 26 cantons

Every canton supports official home and workplace identity plus approved Priminfo premium ranges. The OJP adapter is designed for nationwide journeys once its production credential is configured. Example cities elsewhere on the site demonstrate the workflow; they are not coverage limits.

The honest depth boundary

Municipal tax context is normalized for Zürich, Zug and Aargau. Every other canton receives the official ESTV verification step instead of a guessed local figure.

Optional on-screen context only, not a price feed or part of the cost/commute decision. Stale/invalid data and overdue source reviews suppress nearby results; the required core-source gate is unchanged. Replication time is not a shop observation date. Ways/relations use a bounding-box centre; distances are straight lines, not routes.

Deliberately not scored

School “quality”, neighbourhood crime, childcare fees, current property listings and live hospital capacity are excluded from the comparison score. BAKOM network overlays are optional visual context, not scored building connectivity. Antenna-site overlays are locations, not coverage; BAKOM does not guarantee correctness. FOEN air overlays are regional modelled maps; individual pixels must not evaluate individual locations. MeteoSwiss 1991–2020 climate normals are shown as 1 km grid values plus optional maps, not indoor comfort or a ranking. FSO STATPOP municipality totals are shown as 31 December 2025 permanent residents, not neighbourhood density, an expat count or a ranking. FSO PKS 2025 offence rates are cantonal, per 1,000 residents, not a safer-home score. Comparis and supermarket prices are not ingested. Other official FSO and FOEN pages are offered as labelled checks, not HomeCompare metrics. Mapped school proximity is available separately; it does not establish school assignment or quality.
