[Feature] How to plot points on map and need an background map for echarts

[srinathmerugu]

What problem does this feature solve?

1. I want to plot points by fetching data from the geoserver response, I was not able to find an example to plot points in echarts geo/map examples, so is there a way to plot point type using echarts?
2. I need a background map along with the map i'm plotting

I tried using echarts-leaflet.js for the background map, but my echarts USA States map is not exactly rendering on the USA map of leaflet, please find it in the attachment below

What does the proposed API look like?

Plot points as markers and render echarts map above the background map

Currently we haven't support draw map series on a map services like leaflet. Perhaps you can have a try on the projection option provided since 5.3

Hi, I'm currently plotting points using scatter type with my custom symbol using echarts-leaflet But whenever i zoom in, zoom out and drag on map, i can see there's a delay on map for plotting points. Points are being spread and then sits back on the coordinates which doesn't give a good user experience. I'm sharing the screenshots below of points getting delayed

• zoom in

• zoom out

• drag

@srinathmerugu, yes, there is a delay with echarts-leaflet extension, but it is bearable - see Demo Code. Switch to series type: 'scatter', amount of points is similar to yours, but they are simple circles. Could your custom symbol be the culprit ? How does the delay compare to yours ?
