So, this isn't the continental US that I'm talking about. The algorithm
looks like this:
for each garmin image...
does it intersect a state polygon?
If so, add it to the set
The result will be clear if you look here:
http://garmin.na1400.info/routable.php
in the very upper-right corner. See the few Aleutian islands that cross
180/-180 longitude?
So, the images are named a bit strangely. The names mean:
"This image contains all of the tiles which have middle points
between these two latitudes."
The end result is that I put the Aleutian island tile next to Maine.
I'm too lazy to fix it at the moment. :)
