Module:Sandbox/Wnt/FindFeatures/displayDatabase explained

-- This module finds features with coordinates in a certain area on a globe. -- current focus is Mars. Earth, celestial, etc. would be nice also. -- all three dimensionality is hereby banned from the procedure on account of requiring far too much intelligence to get working.
