<h1>How the Landvex Consensus Engine Works: From Observations to Findings</h1>
<p class="meta">Published July 20, 2026 · Data Quality</p>
<p>When multiple contributors observe the same asset, the naive approach is to take a vote. Three people say the lamp is working, one says it is not — majority wins. The problem is that votes treat every input as equally reliable, which is never true.</p>
<p>The Landvex <strong>Consensus Engine</strong> takes a different approach. It does not vote. It weighs.</p>
<h2>Five signals, one finding</h2>
<p>Every observation that enters the engine carries metadata beyond the raw answer. The Consensus Engine combines five weighted signals into a single scored finding:</p>
<p><strong>1. AI model confidence.</strong> The underlying detection model's certainty about what it sees — a crack, a working lamp, an obscured sign.</p>
<p><strong>2. Human validation.</strong> Where available, expert review of a sample of observations, used to calibrate model performance per category and condition.</p>
<p><strong>3. Historical consistency.</strong> Whether the current observation aligns with the known history of the same asset. A lamp reported as broken for the third time in two months carries different weight than a first-time report.</p>
<p><strong>4. Cross-contributor agreement.</strong> How closely independent observations of the same asset agree, weighted by each contributor's established reliability profile.</p>
<p><strong>5. Official record alignment.</strong> Where official GIS or maintenance registers exist, the engine factors in whether the observation confirms or contradicts the registered state.</p>
<h2>Weighted aggregation, not averaging</h2>
<p>The engine does not simply average the five signals. Each signal's weight is adjusted dynamically based on the category, the asset type, and the available data quality. For a lighting asset, model confidence and cross-contributor agreement may dominate. For a vegetation assessment, historical consistency and official record alignment may matter more.</p>
<p>The output is not a binary yes/no. It is a <strong>confidence-scored finding</strong>: <em>"Asset condition: degraded, confidence 87%, based on 4 observations, 2 validators, 1 contradiction with register."</em></p>
<h2>What happens when signals conflict</h2>
<p>Conflict is information, not noise. When the AI predicts "intact" and a trusted contributor reports "damaged," the engine flags the asset for priority re-observation rather than forcing a resolution. The contradiction itself becomes a finding: <em>"Condition uncertain — conflicting evidence, requires verification."</em></p>
<p>This design avoids the most dangerous failure mode of consensus systems: false certainty. An unresolved conflict is more useful than a wrongly resolved one.</p>
<h2>Traceability by design</h2>
<p>Every finding produced by the Consensus Engine retains a full provenance chain: which observations contributed, what each signal scored, how the weights were applied, and what the confidence calculation yielded. A customer who questions a finding can trace it back to source.</p>
