Add geojson support

[bschoenfeld]

Tools like Google Maps and Cartodb support loading geojson data. The JSON generated by the API is great, but if you just want to map the points geojson would be more useful.

What is actually needed is to reconcile the way the data looks in the database with the API search interface. That means digging into this ticket: openva/vabusinesses.org#25

I barely know what I'm doing with geosearches. At the moment, on the site, you can't even search for a term and a place at the same time. You can do one or the other, but not both. I have no idea why that doesn't work. I'd be very happy to add GeoJSON support, but I don't know how to do it. :)

Ok. I'll look into it. For now, I've got a Python script that converts the
CSV to GeoJSON. I'll see if I can get it worked into the site.
