Internal import workflow

Import Queue

The map should grow from repeatable source ingestion, not one-off pins. This queue tracks the bulk sources, precision rules, and verification steps needed to move from 4,464 curated and baseline records toward a real national facility census.

Candidate rows

These are not public map pins yet. They are staged rows that need dedupe, category decisions, and public-record links before promotion.
