Sources and licences

The lines below are the published credits. The map stays on Infrastructure.

Sentinel-2, CHIRPS, NASA FIRMS, OurAirports, the World Port Index, and OpenStreetMap are the public sources named across the live pages. CHIRPS has no separate line in the credits file, so this page does not invent a licence for it. The rainfall charts stay on Rainfall.

Kenya SI distances are haversine. The planning envelope is assumed. The underserved flag is pending road data. Simulation and planning, not a flight.
