Consistent density when zooming #7

As the zoom level is changed, the number of vectors per area should remain constant to avoid empty regions or overcrowding.

We should thus decimate the vectors by a factor 4 for each zoom level.

Other than everything being pretty painfully slow. This seems like the last major issue that we identified.
