Add hexbin?

[happyshows]

Hi,

Just curious, is it possible to add hex bin capability to this package?

thanks.

Sure, do you know of a leaflet plugin that provides hex binning capabilities ?

I'm not sure if there's native plugin available. I was searching for this capability today since ggmap can do it (without the interactive capability that leaflet provides)

Do you have example code from ggmap I can look at ?

It's been a while and I couldn't find the link, here is something similiar: http://unconj.ca/blog/custom-hexbin-functions-with-ggplot.html

OK I found something https://jsfiddle.net/s8f4ks9m/1/. I will what I can do to support this.

I would also love to see that feature implemented.

I've seen these resources that achieve that in leaflet + D3:

• https://github.com/Asymmetrik/leaflet-d3

The d3-hexbin plugin is integrated in this repo https://github.com/trafficonese/leaflet.extras2
