Heat Map Functionality

[fletcmd]

I am a big fan of dc.js, but realized that it doesn't support heatmaps for leaflet, which my company would love to use. Is there any plans to add that? I know leaflet supports it natively, so hopefully getting it to connect to crossfilter is doable. It looks like this project hasn't been touched in awhile, but hopefully that will change!

I used this for my project and it works fine with dc.js

That's interesting, @aubbi - did you have to write much glue code to get it to work?

I've thought about writing a simple wrapper of Leaflet.heat (ie another chart type) for this fork of dc.leaflet.js, which is slightly more active. But I got confused about problems like how to choose the right resolution for the current zoom level.

@aubbi Could you please talk more about where did you call the Leaflet.heat? Because I am trying to use another plugin (https://github.com/jieter/Leaflet.Sync), but it doesn't work when I glue the code to dc_leaflet.js.
