Reorganize structure #51

Closed tristen closed 5 years ago

tristen commented 5 years ago

With the addition of locations specific to one region of the world does it make sense to organize the folder/file structure? Having a root mapbox-streets directory doesn't quite make sense to me. While these locations were initially created to evaluate style layers using mapbox streets, these locations are relevant to other datasets and its less clear to someone using gazetteer why it's labelled that way.

@dasulit @ClareTrainor what do you think about this proposal:

Conceptually, anything that is specific to mapbox-streets should use the tags field to cite that.
