Councils provide a wide range of services and rely on a wide range of buildings to provide those services. Assigning similar buildings within a database a particular building type allows them to be easily seperated from other buildings for reporting purposes.
Buildings of the same type may also be placed in a particular class in a building hierarchy.
Classifying buildings into a particular building type is not always an easy task, and different Councils will have adopted different building types.
