var limits = {min_zoom: 8, max_zoom: 15};
var bbox = [ 21.9287109375,12.382928338487408,35.5078125,25.720735134412106];
var dbPath = __dirname+'/db';
var poly = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync('./test-polygon.geojson'));
var db = levelGeo(sublevel(level(dbPath)), limits); // limits are optional

//insert polygon
db.geoPut(poly, '1', function(err){
	//retrieve polygon
    db.bboxQuery(bbox, function(err, fc){
        
    });
});

##about level-geography uses tile-cover to generate quadkey indexes. For points, the quadkey simply represents a tile at the specified or default zoom level. For lines and polygons, the minimum number of tiles are used to cover the geography, and each feature is stored redundantly. level-geography abstracts these details away, however, so queries only return one line or polygon for each feature.
