National Science Foundation × Oklahoma: the published intersection
Lead with the dollar figure: $215,854,327. Then name the dataset: USAspending.gov. Then name both sides of the join: awarding agency National Science Foundation (code 049) and place-of-performance Oklahoma (OK). The award count that rides with the total is 288.
University, stem, and research-center folklore can send a reader to this slug. It cannot add a third numeric field. The packet holds two numbers and two keys, nothing more.

What 288 does and does not count
288 is a mid-size award list. Treat it as an action count, not a census of campuses. Modifications, continuations, and new awards can all increment the same field.
Dividing $215,854,327 by 288 yields about $749,494.19. Quote that ratio only as a mean. A typical research-grant award would need a distribution this packet does not publish.
Statewide OK, not a metro table
Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and Norman are landmarks a searcher might type. They are not subtotals. The geography grain is statewide Oklahoma.
Activity coded to Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Missouri, or New Mexico is a different cell even if a Oklahoma City mailing address appears on paperwork. Keep $215,854,327 attached to OK.
Obligations, not cash out the door
The unit on $215,854,327 is obligations. Outlays would be a different extract. Recoveries and cancellations are also unpublished here.
Repeating $215,854,327 as money already spent in Oklahoma mixes units. The source note says obligations are not outlays.
Separate books: FEC and USAspending
Do not claim that donations paid for $215,854,327 in Oklahoma. Campaign-finance receipts and federal award obligations are different public records.
No performance score, no ranking, and no contractor name is in this packet. The join reports $215,854,327 and 288 for National Science Foundation and Oklahoma.
Reuse rules for the NSF–Oklahoma cell
Quote National Science Foundation and Oklahoma together. Quote $215,854,327 and 288 together. Quote USAspending.gov as the source. Leave campus-lab and research-grant folklore unlabeled as a dollar field.
All spending ties is an index of joins, not a hidden total that already includes $215,854,327. National Science Foundation in Oklahoma remains the place to verify the live rows. Place-of-performance Oklahoma is statewide; it does not split Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and Norman. Neighbor-coded activity in Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Missouri, or New Mexico stays out even if mail is handled in Oklahoma City. Correlation is not causation. Campus-lab and research-grant folklore can be a legitimate research question on another page. Here it is labeled folklore because the packet has no NAICS, CFDA, or program column. Plains, energy-corridor, and two-metro folklore is the same kind of reader path: useful for search, unused as math. Agency 049 on a different state's overlay is a sibling join, not a remainder that must add to a national NSF budget on this page. Oklahoma's $215,854,327 cell stands alone. Do not subtract it from National Science Foundation and call the difference 'Oklahoma versus everywhere else' without a published national total in this packet — there is none. National Science Foundation is the awarding-agency label stored on the Oklahoma overlay; the numeric key is 049. Readers who only remember the short name NSF still need both the state tag and the agency tag before quoting $215,854,327. The 288 figure is not a count of campuses and is not a count of distinct NSF programs. Modifications can add rows without adding new vendors. That is another reason the mean of about $749,494.19 is not a typical research-grant award. Oklahoma City is a reader landmark, not a published subtotal. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. This file copies overlayTarget /states/ok/agencies/049/ and canonicalPath /ties/national-science-foundation-in-oklahoma/ from the packet. It does not add a fiscal year, a contractor, or an FEC dollar. If the live overlay later disagrees with $215,854,327 or 288, trust the table and treat this prose as dated to the extract. Until then, the reusable facts are $215,854,327, 288 awards, agency 049, National Science Foundation, Oklahoma (OK), and the obligation unit. Repeat the pair before any reuse: National Science Foundation in Oklahoma. Repeat the source: USAspending.gov. Repeat the unit: obligations, not outlays. The overlay path /states/ok/agencies/049/ and the canonical path /ties/national-science-foundation-in-oklahoma/ describe the same join. Internal links stay limited to the four packet hrefs. No other URL is added. No recipient, contractor, or donor name is invented to fill space. The facts remain the dollar total, the award count, the agency code, the agency name, the state name, and the state code.
