Description

We are using mapbox offline to download offline data about countries and cites. Is there a way to do this separation of two destinations being on the same bounds? For example, if i download Berlin with zoom level 15, and then download Germany with zoom level 8, Berlin is overwritten and it can only be seen with zoom level 8.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the Mapbox Android offline download API and how overlapping regions at different zoom levels are stored. Reproduce the Berlin and Germany downloads at zoom levels 15 and 8, then determine whether separate destinations or non-overwriting behavior is supported.
