what is the differences between "BrainObservatoryCache" dataset
and "VisualBehaviorOphysProjectCache" dataset ?

I want to work with visual stimuli and brain cells responses.
Which dataset is best to work with?
What is the difference between these two data sets?

Thank you!

from allensdk.core.brain_observatory_cache import BrainObservatoryCache
boc = BrainObservatoryCache(manifest_file='boc/manifest.json')

and

import allensdk.brain_observatory.behavior.behavior_project_cache as bpc
my_cache_dir = r'\Data\visual_behavior_ophys_cache_dir'
bc = bpc.VisualBehaviorOphysProjectCache.from_s3_cache(cache_dir=my_cache_dir)

The "BrainObservatoryCache" points you to the "Visual Coding" dataset which contains responses to a diverse set of visual stimuli across different parts of the visual cortex and 14 different transgenically-defined cell types. The "VisualBehaviorOphysProjectCache" points you to the "Visual Behavior" dataset which contains responses during a visual change detection behavior across several visual cortical areas and a handful of cell types.
These are both described more here:
