“Not reported” means missing information, not zero. Completed and withdrawn records can remain available as historical records.
Nearest build: Haversine great-circle distance on the tracker latitude and longitude, in statute miles, rounded to 0.1. First-seen dates: first_seen: the earliest committed snapshot of data/dcfo.sqlite holding any of the facility's source keys (source:source_id), narrowed to the nightly run day by the alert sender's facility_new events when they are available. status_first_seen: the start of the unbroken run of snapshots, ending at this one, in which a facility sharing a source key had the current status, narrowed by the latest status_changed event to that status. Dates are Kapwork's, not the sources'.
