the hope is that this will eventually be in a position to power a variety of use-cases:

• 📦 an R package (your current focus)
• 💻 a Python-compatible backend (for hybrid ML workflows or API use)
• 🌐 a Shiny or web app (for interactive exploration, data input, or visualization)
• 🔁 reproducible pipelines (for cities to run their own updates + analyses)🧠 bonus ideas for the future

or even…

• 💾 create a towardTreeEquity-data repository that hosts test data + schema files
• 🔄 publish schema as a small API so other cities can use it
• 🧪 run nightly tests to check that all layers validate
• 🧬 export schema to an open standard (like Frictionless Data) for future interoperability

• Hybrid Schema System
• How to Build Interchangeable Data Objects
