+# example script for transfering all UBA stations
+# (country='Germany' and network_name='UBA')
+# numid (now: id) will change --> log mapping: old_id <-> new_id
+#
+# Since UBA stations are the first to be inserted, they are unique.
+# Therefore, no check, if station exists already in database is done.
+# --> next version has to check this
+# --> station_id (and -- if different -- station_local_id)
+# can also be inserted into codes with no further checks
+#
+# TBD: list of allowed station_countries
+# (same holds for timezones!)
+# TBD: rename nightlight --> avg_nightlight
+# (does this also hold for population density?)
+#
+# matching fields:
+# old | new | new table
