As the CDS is a nationally used reporting system, there must be some guidelines somewhere for the proper completion of the line items. This is the first time I have seen GPA data > 4.0 on the CDS report. I always assumed they were supposed to be unweighted. When I first started at CC, I called my Alma Mata and asked if the reported average GPA was weighted. They reported that is was not weighted.

Thanks for the question. I will try to find out.

This is important as we should be trying to compile, as best we can, standardized data sources for comparisons. The system will never be perfect, by it is better than a few personal opinions.
