In the original JSON, the suburbs are: "Belconnen",

"Civic",

"Gungahlin",

"North Canberra",

"Parliamentary Triangle",

"South Canberra",

"Tuggeranong",

"Woden",

Please take the lat longs and get more exact suburb names. Prefer if the original JSON file is updated.

Produce a python script that takes the original JSON and spits out a newer, shinier one.

relates to #35 and #25

Teh Plan (whim me if off track)

Plan is to setup postgis and postgresql
Import all the polygons into it (no matter what the level, should be fine right down to SS1)
Then query the art data coords against this database

@mbainrot which dataset are you using? We'll need to make sure to use the same one for drawing the map with d3.
