Are there any object concentration maps?

0

I'm looking for "objects concentration" maps, like a "heat" map. To show the area in colors depending of the number of objects on it. Do such maps exist?

In other words I'm looking for a map which could show me "hard-to-render" areas.

P.S. Is it possible to implement a style which could create such a map? How complicated it would be?

Do the answers to any of these previous questions help at all?

For density of nodes see the most densely mapped locations in OSM. Or as map image. However, this may be a too low zoom level for your usecase.

Here is a density map for all or specific features (e.g. vine yards): OSMatrix. Sadly, the newest available data is from 2012-12-31.

You probably mean OSMatrix (Link with "Number of Features" per cell)

Thanks for the information!

Is it possible to create such a map by myself? It will be great if someone provides me with the style for creating such layer. Also I prefer to convert such data in table matrix for analysis.

I used gnuplot with renderd logs, but I guess it is not an optimal solution.
