Research direction

Reproduce the npm install failure and inspect the mapnik@3.6.2 dependency and node-pre-gyp output for Node 9.3.0 on macOS. Done means installation completes without the reported mapnik failure and the resulting npm errors are resolved.

Description

I just tried to install this tool but got a series of errors from the npm installer. Here's the first part:

node-pre-gyp ERR! Tried to download(403): https://mapbox-node-binary.s3.amazonaws.com/mapnik/v3.6.2/node-v59-darwin-x64-Release.tar.gz
node-pre-gyp ERR! Pre-built binaries not found for mapnik@3.6.2 and node@9.3.0 (node-v59 ABI) (falling back to source compile with node-gyp)

AFAICT, the rest are consequences of failure to install mapnik.
