- Precision scope
- Centroid of cadastral parcel Pütz Flur 31 Flurstück 95 (11.7 ha, about 600 by 410 m), the works site named in the notice. It marks the campus property, not NRW08 or NRW09, the generator yard or a works extent.
- Horizontal uncertainty
Not reported
ALKIS publishes no positional accuracy; the centroid is an interior point of an 11.7 ha parcel about 600 m long, and the building positions are not published.
- Geometry evidence
- 9b4a8f37
A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.

Sources are linked, not redistributed; each keeps its own terms. An archived copy is a lookup for the Wayback Machine capture nearest the retrieval date and may be unavailable or differ from what was reviewed. Each hash states what it covers; imported factual records are not publisher-page captures.
