Resources metric catalog

This is the human-readable index to the checked
cartofreako-resources-profile-v3
metric catalog. The JSON profile remains authoritative for exact units,
reference periods, source IDs, coverage, output tags, palettes, and lifecycle
status. The checked snapshot contains 59 metric definitions across six
families; 14 are standard release passes and 45 remain exploration-only.
Pass classes
The public pass class describes build and release behavior. It is deliberately separate from whether an upstream source happens to require credentials.
| Pass class | Definition | Build and release behavior | Current examples |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard pass | Implemented, source-pinned, coverage-checked, and released | Included in the offline make all graph and generated for all six projections; appears in the public snapshot catalog |
All 14 resource products listed below |
| Optional pass | Implemented, but initially excluded from the standard graph because it requires credentials, license acceptance, or an explicit operator decision | Run through generate-authorized-external; a fully successful run persists only the pass name and enables its prepared artifact graph in later make all runs for that checkout. Absence never breaks a clean checkout |
P-Tree Cloud-atmosphere and licensed network topology; no resource metric currently has this class |
| Exploration only | Cataloged, researched, or source-tested, but not released | Has no production output tag or complete artifact rule and is absent from make all, release manifests, and public preview sheets |
Every resource metric marked planned, supplemental, or research-gap below |
Authorization and pass maturity are independent. NASA FIRMS, for example, has an optional credentialed acquisition boundary, but its data remains an unrendered exploration candidate until a separate review promotes a defined metric. Supplying a key does not turn an exploration entry into an optional or standard pass.
Catalog lifecycle mapping
The resource profile uses lifecycle values that map to the public pass classes as follows:
| Profile status | Count | Public pass class | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
default |
6 | Standard | Released and selected as the default metric for its family |
released |
8 | Standard | Released alongside the family default |
planned |
41 | Exploration only | Definition retained, but promotion work is incomplete |
supplemental |
3 | Exploration only | Potential supporting product; not an optional production pass |
research-gap |
1 | Exploration only | No source currently satisfies the definition and release gates |
An optional pass is not a resource-profile lifecycle status. If a resource
metric later becomes an implemented opt-in product, its pass class and
authorization contract must be documented explicitly instead of overloading
supplemental.
Standard resource passes
These 14 metrics have a nonempty output tag, normalized data or checked spatial input, a passing release gate, Make rules, six-projection outputs, and public v12 previews.

Exploration-only catalog
The entries below are visible so that a planned definition cannot be mistaken for a hidden release. None currently has a production output tag or public artifact.

Minerals
The following 23 USGS-oriented commodity definitions are all planned and
exploration-only. A commodity name does not yet imply a released metric:
mine production, refined production, processing capacity, reserves,
resources, and trade must remain separate.

Human and policy metrics

Research gap | No harmonized, current, non-sparse worldwide source identified |
gender-equality-law |
Planned | Legal framework, supportive systems, enforcement, and outcomes must remain separate |
consensual-same-sex-activity-law |
Planned | No source is pinned and there are no normalized records; use separate dated legal dimensions rather than an LGBTQIA or “sexual freedom” score |
drug-possession-penalty |
Planned | No source is pinned and there are no normalized records; distinguish substance, quantity, conduct, sanction, enforcement, and review date |
intergenerational-mobility |
Planned | Cohort estimates require explicit period metadata and are not current behavior |
The LGBTQIA-related design is intentionally narrower than an umbrella score. A reviewed implementation should preserve consensual same-sex criminalization, relationship recognition, expression restrictions, legal gender recognition, exceptions, and enforcement caveats as separate dated observations. The drug-policy design similarly requires jurisdiction- and substance-specific dimensions for possession, use, cultivation, quantity, sanction, and review date. Neither candidate currently has values, coverage, Make targets, artifacts, or v12 previews.
Promotion boundary
An exploration-only metric becomes a standard pass only after all of these are present and reviewed:
- a pinned source release, retrieval date, digest, citation, and rights decision;
- an exact metric definition, unit, reference period, geography, and missing value semantics;
- normalized country records or a checked spatial input with a passing coverage gate;
- a nonempty output tag and metric-specific Make rules;
- successful generation and structural checks for all six projections;
- deterministic SVG gzip, PDF, and PNG exports; and
- release-manifest and public contact-sheet inclusion.
An optional pass must meet the same implementation and quality boundary. Its only difference is a deliberate, documented opt-in constraint such as source credentials or license acceptance.
