User Guide: Ghana Agricultural Vision Catalogue

What this repository is

Catalogue placeholder for legally compatible Ghanaian agricultural vision datasets. No redistributable vision payload has passed gates in this release.

How to use it

1. Start with data/dataset_registry.parquet to understand source coverage, license status, access class, and limitations.
2. Check metadata/SOURCE_MANIFEST.json before using any source-specific file.
3. If data/source/ exists, those files are copied source payloads that passed this release's redistribution gate.
4. If data/processed/crop_observations.parquet exists, use it for long-format analysis with row-level provenance.
5. If a row is controlled, restricted, application-required, or unclear-license, use the metadata and source URL to obtain authorization from the original publisher. Do not treat the row as redistributed data.

Included payload status
