Description

Figure out caching protocol for directions - I'm thinking prefetch and cache tiles at varying zoom levels traversing directions waypoint; then you can use user location to center directions map and thus pulling nearby tiles. We will need to figure out how to best handle off-course during offline mode.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Research different caching strategies for map tile prefetching, particularly for offline usage. Consider the trade offs between storage and performance, and how to handle off course scenarios.
