Displaying total number as pin text for multiple pins at the same location

[deastr]

Let's say you have multiple pins at the same location or very close. Instead of displaying several very close pins I want to display a single pin with pin count. Is this possible?

You can see an example as attachment.

I'd appreciate any help.

Yes. How many markers? If lots, you will want to do this server
side, if not you can do it client side: pick a threshold distance,
process all your markers, collapsing those within the threshold and
counting them so you know the number to display.

I have seen discussions about this on the v2 group, not many here.
