It handles a much larger proportion of the tags used in OSM [than other maps](https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/projects). It groups similar objects together, so for example `shop=vehicle` will appear with the same icon as `shop=car`. It does this via osm2pgsql and lua to customise the database for rendering, making queries easy to write.

It uses a wider variety of icons than other maps, especially icons with a small modifier indicating a certain feature varies in some small way from the norm, such as a grocery shop that sells zero-waste products, or a pub with outdoor seating.
