Perhaps they could be part of future stages of the import. My idea was to keep the first import relatively small, by including only the “important” features. I agree that my definition of important is fairly arbitrary, and I would be willing to change it. I’m a little bit scared by the fact that there are 90,000 dams in the dataset.
