+
+## Curation
+
+Raw data was downloaded from HDX via the CKAN API and converted to Parquet. Column names were lowercased and standardised to snake_case. Common missing-value markers (`N/A`, `null`, `none`, `-`, `unknown`, `no data`, `#N/A`) were unified to `NaN`. 187 exact duplicate rows were removed. 6 column(s) were cast from string to numeric or datetime based on parse-success rate (>85% threshold). The dataset was split 80/20 into train and test partitions using a fixed random seed (42) and saved as Snappy-compressed Parquet.
+
+---
+
+## Limitations
+
+- Data originates from World Health Organization and has not been independently validated by ESA.
+- Automated cleaning cannot correct for misreported values, definitional inconsistencies, or sampling bias in the original collection.
+- The following columns have >20% missing values and should be treated with caution in modelling: `low`, `high`.
+- Refer to the [original HDX dataset page](https://data.humdata.org/dataset/who-data-for-lao-people-s-democratic-republic) for the publisher's own methodology notes and caveats.
