Demo (make sure use your own google map api key)

Introduction

I designed the web for gas sensor, and there are a lot of sensors in a same building which means they are in same coordinates.

And we use google map cluster, so it can't separate no matter how you zoom in.

Therefore, we make this change by math. Logarithmic spiral

Key function

 // key function
    function tranform (lng, lat, j, cnt) { // helper
      const l = 10e-5
      const theta = 2 * Math.PI / cnt

      const t = j * theta
      const r = l * Math.log(cnt/4*j+1) * theta
      // const r = (Math.E)^( t )

      const x = r * Math.cos(t)
      const y = r * Math.sin(t)
      return {
        lng: lng + x,
        lat: lat + y
      }
    }
  },

Setup

Use your own google map api key

Vue.use(VueGoogleMaps, {
  load: {
     key: 'USE_YOUR_GOOGLE_API_KEY',     
  }
});

Add markers here

generateMarkers(){
    const n1 = 20;
    [...Array(n1).keys()].forEach(j => {
      this.markers.push(marker1)
    })

    const n2 = 10;
    [...Array(n2).keys()].forEach(j => {
      this.markers.push(marker2)
    })
  }
},
