Disclaimer: These are the first three lines of Python I've ever written.

I encountered a UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x8b in position 1: invalid start byte when trying to use this exporter with data from my Xiaomi Roborock vacuum. It's probably the map_data which I don't care about anyway, so this was my fix.
