Hi Dane,

Sorry, I'll try to explain.

I am using PointSymbolizer to put icons on a map.
If I add 'allowOverlap=false' (I may have got that wrong), mapnik only
displays a single icon in an area rather than multiple overlapping ones.
What I would like to do is use a different icon if it is a true
single entity (ie no other things near it) rather than an icon that
represents multiple entities.

This may be 'clustering' - I'm not sure!  I'll search for clustering when I
get home.

Regards


Graham.
