## Description

Zhao is a research ecosystem and collaborative repository designed for the mapping and documentation of political elite networks. It consists of structured YAML kinship datasets and a system for converting these records into visual relationship charts and kinship trees.

The project transforms raw relationship data into visual network maps rendered as PDF and JPEG images. This process utilizes graph visualization tools to compile structured data into downloadable assets that illustrate family connections and power networks.

The framework supports collaborative open data curation through version-controlled repositories, allowing for community contributions and peer-reviewed corrections. It includes utilities for filtering datasets by family name or political group affiliation and archiving public interest data in offline formats.
