Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by tracing how the repository generates and serves vector tiles, then inspect the Mapnik and AWS-related tile settings and measure tile sizes at different zoom levels. Done should mean a documented, agreed-upon approach for reducing tile size without losing required map detail.
