Geospatial Validation Skill

Use this skill whenever writing or reviewing content that makes claims about:

• Cardinal directions between real places ("X is north of Y", "walk east to Z")
• Walk, bike, or transit times between locations
• Pedestrian route feasibility (especially near major roads, highways, water)
• Which side of a road, barrier, or landmark a place is on

When to Trigger

• Any document contains directional language about real-world places
• Walk times are stated or implied
• A route is described that might cross a major road or natural barrier
• Content was written without first looking up coordinates
• A previous version of the content contained a directional error

Do not rely on training-data geography. Street-level east/west/north/south claims are frequently wrong. Always derive from coordinates.
