Feasibility

This is a measure of whether a described situation is possible within known constraints. When looking at Data Quality this measure can be thought of as a specialised form of Consistency, that is consistency with "the universe" as it really works.

As an example one of the checks carried out might be that a velocity is less than the speed of light or that an altitude (above sea level) is less than 100km.

Such checks obviously depend on the information being validated, for example the (fictional) top speed of a Federation "Norway" class spaceship might be greater that the speed of light.
