How is TR.BLOCKTRADEVOLUME field value determined?

How exactly is TR.BLOCKTRADEVOLUME value determined?

Is is determined using some sort of heuristic (e.g., all trades with value greater than $100,000 and quantity greater than 10,000 and same broker on both sides of the trade)?

Or is it based on certain trade marker (e.g., trade has to be marked as intentional or unintentional cross)?

Thanks,

Paul
