Description

Hi there

First: Congrats to this project, Its great work!

I have noticed that the QuadKeys in buildings-coverage.geojson do not have the same zoom level as in dataset-links.csv. I would prefer it if buildings-coverage.geojson corresponded with the downloads. This would make it much easier to automate the download for a desired region without having to learn how QuadKeys work first.

Best,
Simon

Research direction

Compare the QuadKeys and zoom levels in buildings-coverage.geojson and dataset-links.csv, using the repository's Python data-generation or export entry points if they are available. The work is done when the coverage file's QuadKeys align with the corresponding downloads and the resulting files can be checked consistently.
