METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DISPLAYING A MAP OF MARKERS IN AN AREA
Systems and methods are disclosed for generating, based on a marker data set of multiple markers, a boundary tile that encompasses the multiple markers on the map, assigning each of the markers in the multiple markers to one subtile in a grid of subtiles, wherein each subtile in the grid of subtiles represents a portion of the boundary tile, and for at least one subtile in the grid of subtiles having at least one of the multiple markers assigned, displaying, on the map, a representative marker of the at least one of the multiple markers having a location closest to a center of the at least one subtile.
1 . A computer-implemented method for displaying markers on a map, comprising:
generating, based on a marker data set of multiple markers, a boundary tile that encompasses the multiple markers on the map;
assigning each of the markers in the multiple markers to one subtile in a grid of subtiles, wherein each subtile in the grid of subtiles represents a portion of the boundary tile; and

7 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising dividing the boundary tile into the grid of subtiles, wherein each subtile in the grid of subtiles is of a same size.
8 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the multiple markers correspond to access control system assets deployed at one or more areas.
9 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the multiple markers correspond to events detected by assets deployed at one or more areas.
10 . An apparatus for displaying markers on a map, comprising:
one or more memories; and
one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories and configured to execute instructions stored on the one or more memories to:
generate, based on a marker data set of multiple markers, a boundary tile that encompasses the multiple markers on the map;
assign each of the markers in the multiple markers to one subtile in a grid of subtiles, wherein each subtile in the grid of subtiles represents a portion of the boundary tile; and
for at least one subtile in the grid of subtiles having at least one of the multiple markers assigned, display, on the map, a representative marker of the at least one of the multiple markers having a location closest to a center of the at least one subtile.
11 . The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the representative marker indicates a number of the multiple markers assigned to the at least one subtile.
12 . The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to, for each subtile of a portion of subtiles in the grid of subtiles displayed after a zoom event on the map, display each of the multiple markers assigned to the subtile in an associated location on the map.
13 . The apparatus of claim 12 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to display each of the multiple markers assigned to the subtile based on a zoom level of the zoom event achieving a threshold.
14 . The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to remove, from the grid of subtiles, a portion of the subtiles in the grid of subtiles that have no markers assigned to the portion of subtiles.
15 . The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to generate the boundary tile as a rectangle that is based on a lowest marker of the multiple markers, a left most marker of the multiple markers, an upper most marker of the multiple markers, and a right most marker of the multiple markers on the map.
16 . The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to divide the boundary tile into the grid of subtiles, wherein each subtile in the grid of subtiles is of a same size.
17 . The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the multiple markers correspond to access control assets deployed within a building.
18 . The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the multiple markers correspond to events detected by assets deployed at one or more areas.

generating, based on a marker data set of multiple markers, a boundary tile that encompasses the multiple markers on the map;
assigning each of the markers in the multiple markers to one subtile in a grid of subtiles, wherein each subtile in the grid of subtiles represents a portion of the boundary tile; and
for at least one subtile in the grid of subtiles having at least one of the multiple markers assigned, displaying, on the map, a representative marker of the at least one of the multiple markers having a location closest to a center of the at least one subtile.
20 . The one or more computer-readable media of claim 19 , wherein the representative marker indicates a number of the multiple markers assigned to the at least one subtile.
