Places layer localities reset min_zoom to 8 at zoom 7 #91

Closed nvkelso closed 1 year ago

The earlier (and smaller value) zooms from Natural Earth from zooms 0-6 are lost on zoom in.

For New Delhi in India this means the locality which had a pmap:min_zoom of 2.0 reset to 8.0, which compares unfavorably to Delhi the region that has a pmap:min_zoom of 4.6.

As a result the New Delhi locality is collided in error by the Delhi region label for several zooms from 7 until room opens up.

A solution is to do a data join in the places layer for locality features between NE and OSM, and prefer the NE min_zoom values.
