Candidate fields

number
Overall score from 0 to 100.
string

object
{ score, strength } for overlapping physical and forensic details (marks, belongings, identifiers). strength is high, moderate, low, or none.
array
Points per factor. Each entry has key, label, kind (cross-reference or evidence), points, max, and state (match, partial, none, or unknown when a record lacks the data).
number
Percentage of factors both records had data for.
array
Details that point away from a match, such as a large age or height gap. They don’t change score.
number, boolean

Ranked suggestions are research leads, not identifications. Verify any lead with the original agency or source.
