Articles in this category define the vocabulary of commercial real estate, building science, AEC industry conventions, and geographic analysis as used in this knowledge base. Sourced from the canonical projects glossary (`glossary-projects.csv`) and from AEC / BOMA / BICSI industry standards. Glossary covers the terminology and standard definitions used across this wiki, in plain words. [[site-selection-terminology|Site Selection Terminology]] defines the vocabulary of choosing where to build — Qualified Investment, Power Centre, Campus Design, and the Primary–Tertiary target tiers — and [[gis-cluster-scoring-glossary|the Cluster Scoring Glossary]] defines the tier labels and radius conventions (T3 Apex, T2 Hub, T1 Valid) behind the geographic co-location scoring system described in [[markets|The Markets]] and [[site-selection-index|How We Choose Sites]]. [[wiki-structure|How This Wiki Is Organized]] is a different kind of reference — a reader's map to the wiki's categories, rather than a term definition — kept here until a dedicated orientation location exists.
