get_place — Everything the Byway atlas holds on one place: its own description, the records it traces to (OpenStreetMap, Wikipedia, Wikidata), reconciled public records (GNIS, National Register), the scenic byways that pass near it, and the nearest verified lookouts.
places_on_byway — Atlas places along one scenic byway: every place of a kind within a band of the drawn route, nearest to the road first, each marked whether it sits on the byway itself or is a detour off it.
