-You can also employ the pre-built Docker:
+You should then be able to call the STAC populator CLI with following commands:
+
+```shell
+# obtain the installed version of the STAC populator
+stac-popultaor --version
+
+# obtain general help about available commands
+stac-popultaor --help

+# obtain general help about available STAC populator implementations

+# obtain help specifically for the execution of a STAC populator implementation
+stac-popultaor run [implementation] --help

+You can also employ the pre-built Docker, which can be called as follows,
+where `[command]` corresponds to any of the above example operations.
 
 ```shell
 docker run -ti ghcr.io/crim-ca/stac-populator:0.3.0 [command]
 ```

+If files needs to provided as input or obtained as output for using a command with `docker`, you will need to either
+mount files individually or mount a workspace directory using `-v {local-path}:{docker-path}` inside the Docker
+container to make them accessible to the command.

 ## Testing
 
 The provided [`docker-compose`](docker/docker-compose.yml) configuration file can be used to launch a test STAC server.
-For example, the [CMIP6_UofT][CMIP6_UofT] script can be run as:
+Consider using `make docker-start` to start this server, and `make docker-stop` to stop it.
+Alternatively, you can also use your own STAC server accessible from any remote location.
+
+To run the STAC populator, follow the steps from [Installation and Execution](#installation-and-execution).
+
+Alternatively, you can call the relevant populator Python scripts individually.
+For example, using the [CMIP6_UofT][CMIP6_UofT] implementation, the script can be run as:
 
 ```shell
 python STACpopulator/implementations/CMIP6_UofT/add_CMIP6.py \
