The loop iterates through SUSCEPTIBILITY_CLASSES and calls reduceRegions() for each class, but each iteration overwrites the previous "sum" property. This will cause all intermediate area calculations to be lost, with only the last class area being preserved under the key "sum".

Instead, the results of reduceRegions() should be stored with unique property names for each class within the loop, or the property should be renamed immediately after each reduceRegions() call before the next iteration. Currently, the add_area_ha function tries to access feature.get("sum"), but "sum" gets overwritten in each iteration.

Consider using a pattern where the area for each class is computed and renamed to the final property name (e.g., {class_name}_area_ha) before moving to the next iteration.

fc = fc.map(add_area_ha)
# Convert from m² to hectares and add as property, then remove "sum"
def add_area_ha(feature):
area_m2 = feature.get("sum")
area_ha = ee.Number(area_m2).divide(10000)
# Remove "sum" property after storing area
return feature.set(f"{class_name}_area_ha", area_ha).remove("sum")
fc = fc.map(add_area_ha)

This implementation follows the Mandal et al. (2024) methodology and integrates
with existing CoRE Stack patterns for async processing, data persistence, and
GeoServer publication.

Ready for production deployment after updating pan-India asset path configuration.
- Fix landslide_vector.py: Remove 'sum' property after each reduceRegions iteration
  to prevent overwriting in next iteration
- Fix path_constants.py: Remove unnecessary blank lines at beginning of file
- Fix examples.py: Remove unsupported gee_account_id parameter from ee_initialize calls
- Fix process_landslide_susceptibility.py: Remove unused sys import and duplicate json import
- Fix tests.py: Remove unused MagicMock and ee imports
- Fix utils.py: Remove unused Tuple and List type imports

All changes address issues identified by Copilot AI code review.
