+  The Python Package open-mastr provides an interface for
+  accessing and cleaning the German Energy Unit dataset
+  called Marktstammdatenregister (MaStR). The MaStR is a
+  central registry with detailed information about renewable
+  and conventional power plants in the German energy system.
+  open-mastr enables the creation and updating of a local
+  database of the entire registry, as well as processing the
+  data for further evaluation. Ultimately, the package
+  offers methods to reduce the registry's parsing time and
+  thus enables energy system researchers to start working
+  with the entire dataset right away.

 Introduction
 ============
 
-The python package ``open-mastr`` provides an interface for accessing the `Marktstammdatenregister (MaStR) <https://www.marktstammdatenregister.de/MaStR>`_ data. The MaStR is a German register provided by the German Federal Network Agency (Bundesnetzagentur / BNetza) that keeps track of all power and gas units located in Germany. It is a daily growing dataset with millions of data points covering electricity and gas production units, electricity and gas consumers, storages, grids, and energy market participants.

It is a daily growing dataset with millions of data points covering electricity and gas production units, electricity and gas consumers, storages, grids, and energy market participants.
 
 Generally, and besides the offerings of ``open-mastr``, the MaStR data can be accessed via three main options:
 
 #. browse, filter and download `in the browser <https://www.marktstammdatenregister.de/MaStR>`_
 #. download `daily provided dumps <https://www.marktstammdatenregister.de/MaStR/Datendownload>`_
 #. access via the `web service <https://www.marktstammdatenregister.de/MaStRHilfe/subpages/webdienst.html>`_
 
-These access options, however, are not exactly frictionless. ``open-mastr`` thus provides an interface for and improved developer experience of accessing the data. This project is intended for individuals who wish to "just work" with the MaStR data and who do not want to deal with the idiosyncrasies of the three access options above.

 In particular, ``open-mastr`` facilitates access to the daily provided MaStR dumps with download methods (bulk) and by parsing the XML files to a relational database. Furthermore, the software provides a Python wrapper to access the MaStR SOAP web service (API).
