A practical map of the public observatory: what each module measures, who should use it, and which records remain protected.
Each module has a public role and a protection boundary. PASO publishes public methods, source needs, scores, correction paths and action routes. It does not publish protected evidence, witness identity, exact sensitive locations or contributor networks.
