This project is to fetch the waypoints from CSDI. It is daily synced to the sources and launched in gh-pages.

During the crawling, it will minified the result by truncating to 5 decimal places, (i.e., ±1m), and minified the json by cleaning useless space characters. Also, as the data is provided statically by gh-pages, the data transfer supports Content-Encoding: gzip for largely preserving your bandwidth.
