Clustering entries on scatter map

Hi,

I have a large number of records, each one providing GPS coordinates. I want to plot all of them in a scatter map (Sisense scatter map unfortunately only supports up to 500, see https://docs.sisense.com/main/SisenseLinux/scatter-map.htm) and I want them clustered when zoomed out, and then split up to their actual locations on zoom-in. More or less this functionality from Mapbox: https://docs.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/example/cluster/

Does anybody know if this is possible either by tweaking the Sisense native scatter map, or any commercial plugin?

Thanks,

Martha

    Hey Martha 

    We have exactly that Mapbox layer in our powerful Super Map plugin 🙂

    There are a few relatively new mapping options out there from various vendors like the one above or the premium Sisense Arcgis plugin but if you're looking for an all inclusive solution which can handle 10's of thousands of data points, multiple layers of points and territories, and advanced beautified clustering (among many other advanced features) then you can have a look at the powerful Super Map plugin from QBeeQ which has been the leading and ultimate mapping solution in the Sisense ecosystem for more than 5 years now, it is by far the most "mature" map option out there. 

    It also works with Mapbox and looks amazing 🙂 so you won't have to compromise for that Google-ish look.

    (We also have a freebie Google Map addon if you insist)

    Super Map Key Features:

    • Custom Territories/Data Sets

    • Map Bases

    Hi Martha ,

    You're absolutely right — the native Sisense scatter map has a 500-point limit, which can be quite restrictive for larger datasets and doesn’t support clustering out of the box.

    For this type of use case, you might want to check out our Advanced Google Heat Map plugin:
    🔗 https://www.paldi.solutions/sisense-plugins/advanced-google-heat-map

    It supports:

    • Thousands of points

    • Dynamic clustering

    • And many other powerful features

    It’s built to deliver the kind of interactivity and scalability you're looking for — similar to Mapbox, but using a Google Maps component.

    Happy to answer any questions!
