Purpose of Use Boundary Definition
This page defines the permissible and non-permissible uses of the residential listing dataset associated with Dar es Salaam. Its purpose is to establish clear limits on interpretation and application, ensuring that the dataset is not used to support conclusions beyond its structural capacity.
Permissible Uses
The dataset may be used to understand how residential listings are structured, categorized, and presented on platforms at a specific point in time. It supports examination of documentation formats, visibility mechanics, classification behavior, and the boundaries of what is publicly disclosed.
Non-Permissible Uses
The dataset must not be used to infer residential supply, demand, pricing behavior, market performance, or housing conditions. It does not support ranking, comparison, aggregation, forecasting, or any form of evaluative or outcome-oriented analysis.
Misinterpretation Risks
Using the dataset beyond its permissible scope introduces significant risk of misinterpretation. Treating visibility as existence, publication as persistence, or categorization as verification leads to conclusions that the dataset is structurally incapable of supporting.
Relationship to Other Methodological Pages
This boundary definition operates in conjunction with dataset scope, sourcing, classification logic, and bias disclosure. Together, these methodological components define a closed interpretive system that constrains how residential listing data should be read.
