Hi guys, I'm just giving my two cents here..
It would be great if the Map Chart could have an option to show not only a simple pin but something more refined to give the reader a quantity info in a glimpse.
So far the best examples I can provide are from Google because it's the tool I'm familiar with, hopefully Leaflet has something similar
Google Maps Heat Map
Even better: Google Maps Markers Clustering

It looks like it does: Clustering Markers On Leaflet Maps – asmaloney.com .... so at least there is the potential to build this.
For the heat maps there already a feature request on GitHub (even with two apparently stalled WIP implementation attempts )

It would be really useful to be able to use the heatmap feature of Google Maps t… o visualise data - ideally the ability to represent a "weighting" at a particular lat/long in much the same way as the region maps currently have a "metric" associated with a region:

Thanks for all your hard work on developing Metabase this far - it's a very useful tool! :+1: :smiley:

You’re right!
Hopefully it won’t be too much trouble to implement for the Metabase guys
