The V3 tier-assignment methodology assigns each co-location cluster to one of four tiers using binary predicate gates — composition, national catchment rank, civic classification, and spatial overlap — replacing the prior composite-score system introduced in Sprint 17 (May 2026).

The co-location index pipeline deduplicates overlapping clusters that represent the same commercial zone using a 150-metre threshold, retaining the cluster with the higher secondary operator count. A prior 500-metre threshold was found to suppress legitimately distinct commercial nodes in dense suburban corridors.

Large-format national retailers whose verified presence within defined proximity thresholds is the binary qualifying criterion for commercial node inclusion.

Systematic geographic analysis identifying and ranking retail sites where large-format categories converge within defined catchment radii.

A deterministic spatial-analysis framework that ranks commercial real-estate nodes by the objective convergence of independent, capital-intensive retail operators — independent corroboration in place of market sentiment.

The four tier labels — Regional, District, Local, Fringe — visible on the co-location map follow the International Council of Shopping Centres retail property hierarchy, providing a nomenclature that carries meaning independently of the platform itself. Sprint 17 (May 2026) introduced both the ICSC labels and the V3 pure-predicate tier engine.

Three co-location archetypes — Retail Centres (PRO), Urban Fringe (VWH), and Commuter (PKS) — identifying distinct commercial clustering patterns across 17 countries in North America and Europe.

Trade areas for each co-location cluster are defined using crow-flies H3 hexagonal distance rings: a 35 km primary zone and a 35–150 km secondary zone, both computed from WorldPop 2026 population data.

Each co-location cluster is labelled with a human-readable regional name — a North American Metropolitan Area, a European NUTS-3 region, a Mexican municipio, a Canadian Census Subdivision. That name is the output of a layered offline reverse-geocoding pipeline that draws from five open boundary datasets without requiring external API calls.

Every retail location on the co-location map carries a brand family classification that determines how the location is displayed and, for some families, whether it contributes to cluster scoring. The taxonomy was designed around the anchor types used in the co-location methodology while remaining extensible to the full range of ingested operators.

Population estimates from WorldPop 2026 and annual per-capita spend proxies from national household surveys underpin the trade area statistics for each co-location cluster.

The co-location index distinguishes between chains that participate in cluster scoring — anchors, hardware, warehouse — and chains that appear on the map as supporting context without affecting cluster grades. The Food family is the latter. This article documents United Kingdom and European Union food-retail coverage as of the May 2026 expansion.
