Details

At the moment, documentation on the format is unavailable. The format changed during the 2017/2018 offseason and now includes a numeric first column and numeric fifth, sixth and seventh column. All values are identical per column.

Additionally, as of publication, PATRICK AFB in the Atlantic data source actually contains eight columns; this is noted in al_prblty_stations. SALINA CRUZ in ep_prblty_stations is short one column.

I see no issues with the extra or missing data as I am unsure the value of the data to begin with. A warning will be given so the user is aware, but the important pieces (Location, Lat, Lon) all seem good.
