city.weather_index is a raw index. There is no weather lookup table and no weather entity in the
export, so the number is shown as it is stored and is not turned into a climate. Population band and attraction are
likewise raw source scales. The local region comes from local_region, which is a separate id space
from region and is not interchangeable with it. Altitude is in metres.
