Description: Enables the construction of flexible urban delineations
        that can be tailored to specific applications or research
        questions, see Van Migerode et al. (2024)
        <DOI:10.1177/23998083241262545> and Van Migerode et al. (2025)
        <DOI:10.5281/zenodo.15173220>. Originally developed to flexibly
        reconstruct the Degree of Urbanisation classification of
        cities, towns and rural areas developed by Dijkstra et al.
        (2021) <DOI:10.1016/j.jue.2020.103312>. Now it also support a
        broader range of delineation approaches, using multiple
        datasets – including population, built-up area, and night-time
        light grids – and different thresholding methods.
