for scientific applications, shapefiles can be created manually. For them, no mapping is required, since the palm surface type is already set in the input data. Since this is the most generic way, change the section loading the mapdics so that
by default, if no map dialect is given, it selects a new generic dict
for that, create a new 1:1 mapping dict (so input class x is not mapped, or rather mapped to x again in the code).
