Hybrid approach with vector basemap and ol on top #139

I am curious if this approach could work:

We have disabled the tileserver, but it also works with a Maptiler layer:

https://api.maptiler.com/maps/e2be1255-22fd-497c-b2f7-66fd83718ae6/style.json?key=JsAgs5z1cl0FbVKCSe5V

The basemap does not need data. Everything we have developed will go on top.

The advantage is obvious when you look at the dot map. It's incredibly fast, smooth and detailed. However we should talk about this, I realize it is experimental.
