<p>The problem is that currently we only record the start position of the trace so we have no way of knowing how large an area it covers without scanning every point in the trace, which might be a large number.</p>
<p>Obviously we could change that, but it's not trivial as it will require a schema change and population of a bounding box for each existing trace.</p>
