Hi All, 

Just an open enquiry to see if anyone has implemented something akin to the marker clustering seen on Google Maps or Leaflet Marker Cluster.



This is technically possible by popping in and out marker layers depending on zoom level and how many markers you have in an area, but it's not quite a smooth experience. 


This isn't a feature request (yet), just curious if anyone has done something similar. :)

That's certainly a nice feature to have.

In VTM there isn't something like that implemented.

In Mapsforge we have a cluster implementation in Samples.
Also a pull request (awaiting review) showing a spiral of markers at same location.

Both can be used as guides for VTM too. :)
