Graduate School Building pin is ~190m off, sits on Dioscoro L. Umali Hall

Report

The Graduate School Building pin renders on top of Dioscoro L. Umali Hall, so anyone searching for it is sent to the wrong place.

Evidence

buildings#20 Graduate School Building is at 14.1640193548794, 121.240810800661.

Its own directions field says:

Behind the International House dormitory, at the foot of the ascent going to UHS and Forestry.

OSM places International House Residence Hall at 14.1635129, 121.2391300. The stored pin is about 190 m east of that, which contradicts "behind the International House dormitory" and lands it in the Umali Hall cluster.

So the coordinates are wrong and the directions text is probably right. OSM has no "Graduate School Building" feature to copy a position from, so the correct spot needs someone who knows the campus.

Fix

Drag the pin in the editor (map edit mode, pencil) to the actual building: behind International House, at the foot of the ascent toward UHS and Forestry. Roughly 14.1638-14.1640, 121.2391-121.2396, but do not apply that range blindly, it is inferred from the directions text and the International House position, not surveyed.

Worth checking at the same time

This is a coordinate error rather than the building-assignment errors fixed on 2026-08-03, so it is a different failure mode and the earlier audit would not have caught it. Worth a sweep for other buildings whose pins sit implausibly far from what their directions describe, or that cluster suspiciously tightly on a neighbour.

Ran the sweep this issue asked for. Tooling in #892, findings in #891.

Relevant to this issue: the Graduate School pin was corrected, but the audit shows the area is still inconsistent. buildings#20 is now 220 m from dorms#5 International House, which its directions say it sits behind. This issue quoted OSM as placing International House at 14.1635129, 121.2391300, roughly 250 m west of the pin dorms#5 actually stores, so the dormitory row looks like the one still holding an old position. Separately, three OVCSA offices that say they are in the "Graduate School (GS) Dormitory" agree with each other to within 8 m and sit 365 m from buildings#20. Details in #891.
