Bounding boxes caching system for Overpass API requests

Scope

Building a Nodejs library that with algorithms helps to optimize and manage a level of cache between a client and a server overpass bees or Overpass Turbo in particular search for objects within a specific Bounding Box.

Demo page to test algoritm: https://stefanocudini.github.io/overpass-query-cache/test/

How does it work

In BBOX's first request, some additional data is requested (see fixed tile) and subsequent requests in case they cover a nearby area no longer weigh on the overpass server because the cache contained in the tiles is used
