Improve map feature color palette about osm-analytics HOT 2 OPEN

Would it make it more consistent to use the same colors for every dataset? Since we switched to layer switcher instead of multi selection...

I would also want to try using a lower resolution grid if possible. This may be as quick as using a higher zoom level for the vector tile overlay than what the map is at. For example, by displaying level 15 of the road density layer when map z=12 it would show a finer grid rendering (less big-squarish).

What do you think @tyrasd - would that impact performance?

Something else to consider for inspiration on rendering density at different zoom levels

It looks like it's open source too, but it may require routing data crunching through PGSQL
