Premium Orion Datasets and the spatial backfill
OrionAI 2.22.0Released 3 November 2026
Statistics tables Orion spatializes are marked Premium Orion Datasets, the join backfills records harvested before the spatial gate, and OrionAI rewrites file-style titles.

Changes since 2.21.0.
#New
- Premium Orion Datasets: every statistics table Orion spatializes — joined to administrative boundaries so it can be drawn on a map — is now marked
premiumwithderived_by = Orion Terrametricson the record. The dataset page shows a Premium Orion Dataset badge and a Derived by row, and the description states that the derived product is owned by Orion Terrametrics while naming the original publisher. The original source stays fully attributed (publisher, licence, citation). This marker is what the future premium pricing gate will key on. - Spatial join backfill: a new hourly
spatial_planjob plans the join for statistics tables that were harvested before the spatial gate ran, or whose plan failed once (retried after 7 days). A successful plan stores thetable_joinaccess entry, coverage, columns and sample rows exactly as at harvest, and marks the record premium. A record whose plan keeps failing waits and stays unpublished rather than publishing as a bare table. - Human titles from OrionAI: when a record's title is a file or layer name (e.g.
ken_admin1,layer-3.shp), the enrichment job now asks OrionAI for a short human title from the record's facts. The rewrite is recorded intitle_by = orionai; a steward's edited title is never replaced.
#Improved
- The enrichment sweep now also selects records that need a title, not only those needing a description or coverage.
- A re-harvest of an already-spatialized table keeps its premium marker and ownership sentence.
