Original: ArcGIS API for Silverlight map uses Clusterer to solve overlapping problems when loading many points
Question: If you load hundreds or thousands of engineering points on a map, it will be dense, not very good looking, how broken?
Workaround: Use clusterer
A dense picture of the situation:
<UserControl.Resources>
<lineargradientbrush x:key= "bluegradient" mappingmode= "RelativeToBoundingBox" >
<gradientstop color= "#990011FF" offset= "0"/>
<gradientstop color= "#990055FF" offset= "0.25"/>
<gradientstop color= "#990099FF" offset= "0.5"/>
<gradientstop color= "#9900CCFF" offset= "0.75"/>
<gradientstop color= "#9900FFFF" offset= "1"/>
</LinearGradientBrush>
</UserControl.Resources>
<Grid.Resources>
<esri:simplemarkersymbol x:key= "Bluemarkersymbol" color= "#FF0551A7" size= "style=" "Circle"/>
</Grid.Resources>
<!--site location--
<esri:graphicslayer id= "Graphicslayer" >
<esri:GraphicsLayer.Clusterer>
<esri:flareclusterer
Flarebackground= "Yellow"
Flareforeground= "#99000000"
Maximumflarecount= "5" radius= "15"
Gradient= "{StaticResource bluegradient}"/>
</esri:GraphicsLayer.Clusterer>
</esri:GraphicsLayer>
After effect
ArcGIS API for Silverlight maps use Clusterer to resolve overlapping issues when loading many points
