+# Datacard for Guinea Digital Development Indicators (1960-2024)
+
+This dataset contains a time-series of key digital development indicators for Guinea, spanning from 1960 to 2024. The data has been aggregated from multiple sources, cleaned, and processed into a single, analysis-ready CSV file.

+## Data Preparation & Missing Data Handling
+
+The raw data was processed using a Python script to transform it into a clean, structured format. The key steps were:
+
+1.  **Filtering**: The data was filtered to include only records for 'Guinea'.
+2.  **Reshaping**: The original wide-format data (years as columns) was melted into a long format.
+3.  **Merging**: Data from all indicator files was merged into a single DataFrame on 'Year'.
+4.  **Handling Missing Data**: Missing values (`NaN`) were filled using a two-step strategy: linear interpolation followed by a back-fill to handle any remaining gaps at the start of the series.
