Fixes #13. This is a fast approach replacing changes proposed in #27 and #30. Also addresses mapbox/mapbox-gl-js#3318.
It pretty much doesn't affect performance while allowing to accurately fetch "children" clusters, either for spiderfying, generating a hull, precise "zoom to cluster" or any other features.
The way it works is storing the index of the "origin" point the cluster was created from as its id, and also storing
parentId
for each point/cluster that was clustered. Then you can fetch the "origin" point, do a radius query around it on the next zoom and filter out points that are not related to the cluster. This operation is almost instant since it'sO(log N)
.Let me know what you think!
