Large Files

Individual files over 100 MB are too large for the GitHub Repo. Many GIS datasets exceed this size and so files that are > 100 MB and < 2GB are provided on the releases page.

Licence

The LICENCE file only applies to the repo structure and anything unique to Carbon & Place. Please check individual datasets and their original data owners as licence terms may be slightly different.
