Improving dive site names on the dive map

[Willem Ferguson]

Lubomir,

Attached is a screenshot with some dive sites in my dive log. As you can 
see, the names overlap too such an extent that the readability and 
information provided by the map is compromised.

Is there any sensible way to omit some of the names from the image to 
improve readability when there is overlap of text? I have thought a bit 
about how one would do something like this, but it appears complex 
because it is determined by the degree of zoom applied to the map as 
well as the dive site spacing in a particular area. Ultimately, at very 
close zoom-in it would not be necessary to omit any names, but at a 
zoomed-out scale deleting some names bay be useful. I notice that you 
automatically do not provide dive site names when the map is zoomed out 
very far. I therefore assume you have actually thought about this 
problem and that there is not a simple solution?

Kind regards,

willem
