Overview
supercluster is a JavaScript library for clustering geospatial points in browsers and Node. It was built to power clustering in Mapbox GL JS and groups nearby markers so a map with many points stays readable. You create an index with a radius and maximum zoom, load an array of GeoJSON Point features, then ask for the clusters inside a bounding box at a given zoom. It installs from npm or Yarn, or loads from a CDN or script tag.
Key features
- load() indexes an array of GeoJSON Point features
- getClusters() returns clusters for a bounding box and zoom
- Configurable radius and maximum zoom
- Works as an ES module, from a CDN or via script tag
Best for
Developers showing many map markers who want them grouped by zoom level, in Mapbox GL JS, Leaflet or their own code.
