Clusters
editClusters
editClusters use Geotile grid aggregation or Geohex grid aggregation to group your documents into grids. You can calculate metrics for each gridded cell.
Symbolize cluster metrics as:
- Clusters
- Uses Geotile grid aggregation to group your documents into grids. Creates a vector layer with a cluster symbol for each gridded cell. The cluster location is the weighted centroid for all documents in the gridded cell.
- Grids
- Uses Geotile grid aggregation to group your documents into grids. Creates a vector layer with a bounding box polygon for each gridded cell.
- Heat map
- Uses Geotile grid aggregation to group your documents into grids. Creates a heat map layer that clusters the weighted centroids for each gridded cell.
- Hexbins
- Uses Geohex grid aggregation to group your documents into H3 hexagon grids. Creates a vector layer with a hexagon polygon for each gridded cell.
To enable a clusters layer:
- Click Add layer, then select the Clusters or Heat map layer.
To enable a blended layer that dynamically shows clusters or documents:
- Click Add layer, then select the Documents layer.
- Configure Data view and the Geospatial field.
- In Scaling, select Show clusters when results exceed 10000.
