This dataset collection brings together harmonized data on environmental, demographic, agricultural, health, and geographic characteristics across India. It includes district- and state-level information on bird habitat overlaps, pharmaceutical sales, livestock counts, water quality, weather patterns, and medical infrastructure, alongside population census data from multiple years. The files also incorporate geographic shapefiles, administrative boundary keys, and classifications such as coastal districts. Together, these files provide a structured, multi-dimensional view of India's social and ecological landscape across time and space.
