Nov 14, 2014 at 8:37 comment added Berend If the data must be rendered dynamically (i.e. not static tiles), I would recommend using some kind of WMS server (GeoServer, MapServer, ArcGIS, ...). If performance is not good enough, you should consider whether you really must store all points, or that maybe a (simplified) line will do.

Nov 14, 2014 at 1:49 comment added Frank Phillips wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mod_tile or tilestache.org both focus on render on the fly.
Nov 14, 2014 at 1:48 comment added giser In fact, I even thought use the heatmap but finally I found it is not the proper manner.
Nov 14, 2014 at 1:46 comment added giser rasterize the information on to tiles YES!! I have thought of this,when user choose the time, we fetch data from db and render to an image,then use the GroundOverlay to add it. But we have to render image dynamically for each request, I am not sure if this can feed the response time. Since we have never done this before, any example?
