When you start getting to the level of information not actually on the grave

sense to have this information in a separate database rather than in

We're still working on the settings. Right now tiles are only cached for 5
minutes. For high zoom tiles that might work ok but it makes it annoying to
zoom out because the lower zoom tiles take so long to render.

Regarding the Congressional Cemetery example, it seems a bit odd to me to
tag graves "tourism=attraction". The other tags seem to make sense and are

This is just great. There are a few extra shields on I-95 south of WashDC
