Our analytics dashboard computes averages from the vendor's bangkok_aq_stations export and the numbers are coming back wrong. The means show up as NaN and the city director keeps getting figures that do not reconcile. Please investigate the file and fix whatever is keeping the numeric computations from working. Leave the string columns and the geometry alone, and keep Thai script in any string field exactly as it arrives. Write the result to bangkok_aq_typed.geojson.
