Identifying and Managing Duplicate Points

This tutorial will guide you on how to identify and manage duplicate points in the Busable Points module, ensuring accuracy and consistency across your services.

To find duplicates, start by clicking on Filters, then choose Validations, and select Duplicates.

This action will highlight any points with the exact same location.

Alternatively, you can use the Proximity filter to find points located near each other by setting the proximity values in meters to display points within your defined range.

Once duplicates are identified, select the points you wish to merge using one of the following methods: use the checkbox in the Stop list on the right, hold down the Control key and click each point on the map, or hold the Shift key and draw a selection box around the points with your mouse.

After selecting the points, click the merge button.

The topmost point on the map will become the surviving point, and all services previously linked to the merged points will now use this surviving point, which will also show all the combined services it is associated with.

This simple process helps ensure your points remain accurate, consistent, and easy to manage.
