Description

Add a new module for foreign key references to external data providers.

It would be beneficial to import this data into a separate table so that:

  • It is easier to query
  • Non-geographic datasets can be imported for the purposes of linkage

It would be interesting to import wikidata as it has many concordances.

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by examining the repository's existing modules and database schema, then determine how external-provider references and a separate concordance table should fit; done means importing provider data for queryable geographic and non-geographic linkage.
