Support for heatmaps
amotl opened this issue · comments
@wetterfrosch recently mentioned that @samhatchett already added Leaflet's heatmap support through grafana#17 / grafana#35.
We would like to add support for that within this fork.
@wetterfrosch commented on #20 the other day.
When thinking about heatmaps I accidentally stumbled upon the fact that "plot.ly" (which is already a grafana-plugin) seems basically a big Javascript library not only for tiles, but for maps with heatmaps and "chloropeth" (shapes!), too!

https://plot.ly/javascript/mapbox-county-choropleth/
As people are for heatmaps considering WebGL over javascript in terms of performance, have a look who does that, too: https://plot.ly/javascript/heatmap-webgl/.
