SDG goal progress signals (2030-target progress velocity, on-track flags)
Value-added UN Sustainable Development Goal progress signals: 10-year progress rates, cross-country improvement z-scores, naive drift projections to the 2030 deadline, and on-track/off-track flags for poverty, electricity access, safe drinking water, and maternal mortality across ~200 countries. All computation is local pandas/numpy; no paid models or APIs.
