  • Publication number: 20240393928
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with generating aggregate data geospatial grid cells for encoding in vector tiles are described. In one embodiment, a method includes accepting an input to adjust a zoom level of a map. In response to the input to adjust the zoom level, the method automatically (i) identifies finest-resolution hexagons contained in a vector tile that appears in the map at the adjusted zoom level, (ii) selects a hexagon resolution level that allows for n hexagons to be placed along an axis of the vector tile, (iii) generates, from the finest resolution hexagons, new hexagons at the hexagon resolution level, wherein the new hexagons aggregate data values of the finest resolution hexagons, and (iv) encodes the new hexagons in the vector tile. The method then transmits the vector tile for display in the map with the new hexagons overlaid on the vector tile.

  • Patent number: 12061784
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with generating aggregate data geospatial grid cells for encoding in vector tiles are described. In one embodiment, a method includes identifying a subset of finest-resolution geospatial grid cells contained by a vector tile in a set of finest-resolution geospatial grid cells and their associated aggregate data values; selecting a cell resolution level based on a zoom level of the vector tile; generating a new geospatial grid cell at the cell resolution level based on cell IDs of the subset of finest-resolution cells; generating a total aggregate data value for the new cell based on associated aggregate data values of the subset of finest-resolution cells; encoding the new cell and total aggregate data value in the vector tile; and transmitting the encoded vector tile to a client to cause the vector tile and the new cell to be displayed.
