KickStarter project: a multi mapping JS client-side clustering library
- Gigablah 15y agoInstead of reinventing the wheel, why not make this library work with the wrappers provided by Mapstraction? http://mapstraction.com/ http://mapstraction.com/ Edit: Sorry, didn't notice the part about leaflet earlier. But yeah, Mapstraction support would be nice.
- thibaut_barrere 15y agoMaybe the clustering project could be made compatible with Mapstraction rather than fully dependent (if that's what you suggest?). (note that I'm not the KS project runner, just a thought!)
- sgruhier 15y agoI will provide API for leaflet which is also a wrapper. I'll take a look to Mapstraction and definitively support it to This goal is to make something very easy to extend.

- jcxplorer 15y agoAs someone who has been working on clustering map markers on top of Google Maps, I have to say that doing it with a quadtree algorithm is extremely simple.
- solidgumby 15y agoAt first, I thought that the guy was using KS as an exit strategy from his current startup, Maptimize. Then I realized that he was creating a new, open-source JS client-side library, which is a real need. Kudos to that! What strikes me is how one could use KS to "sell" useful code/assets from a failed startup. Or, to an extend, use KS as an exit strategy - going open source instead of going public.
