Transporting families that cover the terminal object #

Covering families on arbitrary sites can be transported through equivalences whose forward functors preserve covers. This is site-theoretic infrastructure and does not require sheaves or a geometric realization of either site.

An equivalence whose forward functor preserves covers sends a family covering the terminal object to a family covering the terminal object.
