Context
The current map is quite hard to read because the pollution layer is over the top of the place names.
Changes in this PR
This PR replaces the stock map styles with two custom styles applied as two separate layers. The first shows the streets and water, and goes under the pollution layer. The second shows place names and goes on top of the pollution layer. This approach makes the map much more readable.
The appearance of these styles can be managed at https://cloud.maptiler.com/maps/
