Cor. What a lot of data you give to the page!

I would suggest the best way to deal with this amount of data is only
fetch what you need, when you need it. That is:

- User clicks on a polygon choice
- You clear any existing markers
- You change the polygon's colour
- You download the data for that polygon (using GDownloadUrl and a
server-side script which provides the data)
- You display the points

That requires either an extra field in your database for the subcounty
which you can use to determine which points to select, or a bit of
point-in-polygon analysis. The first is definitely a better method of
selection.

You could use point-in-polygon analysis, though, to determine which
subcounty contains a point clicked by a user: then use that as the
polygon choice instead of the radio button and proceed as before.
