Re: [Talk-us] NC sidewalk data import

I'd like to second this! Also, hi Melanie! In case it adds useful context, I'd like to give my own recommendations: (1) get practice in mapping sidewalks yourself and (2) create an IP, metadata, work, verification, and upkeep plan for the import. For (1), the goal is to become familiar with the
