enhance visualisation of multiple samples from identical location #11

Enhance visualisation of multiple samples from identical location, e.g. by adding jitter to scatter plot (inspiration) or aggregating values of same location. Currently samples from same location with differing values are not distinguishable.

only issue I see is that this would be misleading on a map, e.g., it would suggest that samples are from different locations.

transparency could be one way to address (I'm thinking of something like a hex plot, but on a map that might not be clear enough)... or using numbers to mark overlapping points? aggregating/averaging by location may be the way to go?
