MarkerCluster

MarkerCluster is a tool used in mapping applications to manage and visualize large numbers of map markers efficiently. When many markers are close together, they can overlap and make the map cluttered and hard to interpret. MarkerCluster groups these nearby markers into a single, aggregated icon that indicates the number of markers it represents. As you zoom in, the cluster splits back into individual markers for clarity. This helps users navigate maps more smoothly, reducing visual clutter, and providing a clearer overview of data points, such as locations of businesses, events, or points of interest.
