Consider Purple Air and Fire icon collapsable marker group to allow for clicking all available icons #110

Currently, with the large number of Purple Air sensors in Fairbanks and / or when the fires pile on top of one another in the map, there isn't a good way to access the icons below the top level icon. Consider a way to group these markers and give an "average" AQI or "total" acres burning as the icon until it's clicked?

It is true and valid. I'm also unsure how to proceed: as-is, it works pretty OK with a "overall color pattern" but agreed that the numbers become unreadable in particular. Without increasing zoom level I don't know what to change. Clustering wouldn't be effective because zoomed-out it would have one number for the whole area which isn't great; this really is showing some meaningful detail. Almost like the individual points are "pixels".

I'm going to close this because we haven't gotten direct feedback around this and clustering would hide important info.
