Big Data:
Large vector data sets on a Lightspeed view
The visualization of a large data set on a map poses 2 big challenges:
- Preventing visual clutter
so that the user can distinguish between the features.
Typically, this is achieved by painting less data when the map is zoomed out.
- Keeping the map and application responsive
by preventing that all data is loaded in memory.
Here you will learn about the different available options in the LuciadLightspeed API to visualize such large
vector datasets on a Lightspeed view.
