Welcome to the TNMCorps Q&A community!

What do I do if I come across duplicate points representing the same structure?

Sorry, forgot to mention what to do if both had a GNIS number. Thanks for adding that! My experience has been that neither has one in most cases, but that may just be because the areas I edit don't have many points already checked.

If you come across a structure feature that is represented by duplicate points, either delete the point that does not have a GNIS ID; or if both points have a GNIS ID, keep the one with the smaller GNIS ID and delete the one with the larger GNIS ID.

Delete the one that doesn't have a GNIS number. If neither has one, just choose one that requires you to do less work in editing.

You can use this guide as a reference.
