    Issue with all artworks showing greyhope as map location

    Just noticed this weird issue with all artworks showing greyhope as map location.

    The pin location on the "Other art nearby, the 20 closest..." map is correct... Screenshot 2022-10-03 at 10-52-53 Near 5WCC RJ Aberdeen UK - Street Art Aberdeen

    Optimise loading times and data sizes on gallery screens

    The gallery screens at... https://streetartaberdeen.org/gallery ...is a bit slow, with so many items.

    Could try lazy loading

    Add a geojson API output

    Great idea from Jez on the Code The City Slack channel....

    my first feedback is that seeing as it is geolocated data how about returning geojson? Effectively it is a Feature Collection container and Point Features..... dump it into https://geojson.io/ to see
