Hi Nils, I didn't try this myself but i could imagine that you could cluster a bit in your database. I'm using oracle and have functionality to show only features within a certain boundary of a province. I create a view which calculates the distance and stores that in a column.
You could use the spatial distance of your database to group features in your view I guess. Don't know if that would take too much resources on your database side though?

I have tried the cluster strategy on a WFS layer and it works excellently. But, when zoomed out, there are simply too many features to run the clustering on the client (I tried with 10,000 which the browser wasn't too happy about and in the final system the numbers may be ten times that). So, has anyone tried clustering features on the server side, and if so how did you do it? -- Nils Weinander | Systems Designer Phone +46 (0)8 4100 6456 Mobile +46 (0)709 78 28 37 -- Curalia AB | www.curalia.se Hudiksvallsgatan 4, 113 30 Stockholm, Sweden -- _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/users
