Abstract
A pattern of geocoded pixels is generated by accessing data point values, where each data point value includes an attribute value and coordinates of a geographic location. Each data point value corresponds to a geocoded pixel that is positioned on the pattern based on the coordinates of the data point value such some geocoded pixels overlap other geocoded pixels. Different levels of the pattern of geocoded pixels correspond to a different degree of overlap between the geocoded pixels. The different levels of the pattern of geocoded pixels are associated with different magnification levels of a geographic map such that changing a magnification level of the geographic map causes a degree of overlap between the geocoded pixels of the pattern to change.
