# heatmap

> Render point density as a heatmap with MaplibreLayer type="heatmap", controlling radius and intensity through paint properties.

## Introduction

Set `type="heatmap"` on `MaplibreLayer` to render point density as a heatmap. `heatmap-radius`, `heatmap-intensity`, and `heatmap-opacity` control the visual appearance. For property-weighted temperature heatmaps, see [MaplibreTemperature](https://maplibre.mhaibaraai.cn/docs/environment/temperature).

> [!NOTE]
> See: /docs/core/layer
> 
> Heatmap layers are powered by the generic MaplibreLayer component. See its documentation for full Props and events reference.

## Usage

Density heatmap from 200 random points (dark basemaps provide better contrast):

```vue [LayerHeatmapExample.vue]
<script setup lang="ts">
import type { FeatureCollection } from 'geojson'

const data: FeatureCollection = {
  type: 'FeatureCollection',
  features: Array.from({ length: 200 }, (_, i) => ({
    type: 'Feature',
    properties: {},
    geometry: {
      type: 'Point',
      coordinates: [116.3 + ((i * 53) % 100) / 500, 39.85 + ((i * 71) % 100) / 600]
    }
  }))
}
</script>

<template>
  <div class="h-115 w-full overflow-hidden rounded-(--ui-radius) border border-default">
    <MaplibreMap :options="{ style: 'https://tiles.openfreemap.org/styles/dark', center: [116.4, 39.93], zoom: 11 }">
      <MaplibreLayer
        layer-id="heat"
        type="heatmap"
        :source="{ type: 'geojson', data }"
        :paint="{
          'heatmap-radius': 24,
          'heatmap-intensity': 1,
          'heatmap-opacity': 0.85
        }"
      />
    </MaplibreMap>
  </div>
</template>
```

## API

### Props

```ts
/**
 * Props for the MaplibreLayer component
 */
interface MaplibreLayerProps {
  /**
   * 图层 id，全局唯一；变更需配合 `:key` 重建
   */
  layerId: string;
  /**
   * 图层类型，决定渲染方式与可用的 paint / layout 属性；变更需配合 `:key` 重建
   */
  type: "symbol" | "fill" | "line" | "circle" | "heatmap" | "fill-extrusion" | "raster" | "hillshade" | "color-relief" | "background";
  /**
   * source id 字符串引用，或内联 source 对象（自动创建匿名源并随图层卸载，内容变化时增量更新）；二者之间切换需配合 `:key` 重建
   */
  source?: string | SourceSpecification | undefined;
  /**
   * 矢量瓦片源内的子图层名（source-layer），消费矢量源时必填；变更需配合 `:key` 重建
   */
  sourceLayer?: string | undefined;
  /**
   * 绘制样式属性，响应式变更经 setPaintProperty 增量下发
   */
  paint?: PropBag | undefined;
  /**
   * 布局属性，响应式变更经 setLayoutProperty 增量下发
   */
  layout?: PropBag | undefined;
  /**
   * 过滤表达式，仅渲染匹配的要素
   * @default undefined
   */
  filter?: FilterSpecification | undefined;
  /**
   * 最小缩放级别，低于此级别不渲染
   * @default 0
   */
  minzoom?: number | undefined;
  /**
   * 最大缩放级别，高于此级别不渲染
   * @default 24
   */
  maxzoom?: number | undefined;
  /**
   * 插入到该 id 图层之前；省略则追加到图层栈顶部
   */
  beforeId?: string | undefined;
}
