Cross-Validation: Finding the Truth

The cross-validation engine uses weighted voting to determine your canonical NAP:

Canonical Name:    "Acme Plumbing Co" (85% confidence)
Canonical Address: "123 Main St, Miami, FL 33101" (92% confidence)
Canonical Phone:   "(305) 555-1234" (78% confidence)

Higher-weight sources (Google, Yelp, Facebook) have more influence on the canonical values.
