TLspContinuousLabelingAlgorithm didn't handle edited labels correctly anymore. Such labels

now has the ability to work with radar feeds
whose angular or radial resolution are variable over time. This requires the user to manually
specify the resolution of the visualization, which is then effectively decoupled from that of
the data. The new method displayResolution() on the layer builder is

all variations in the resolution of the incoming data.
