The points are aranged into a list of sets of data to draw. # In[1]: import folium import folium.plugins as plugins import numpy as np np.random.seed(3141592) initial_data = ( np.random.normal(size=(100, 2)) * np.array([[1, 1]]) + np.array([[48, 5]]) ) move_data = np.random.normal(size=(100, 2)) * 0.01 data = [(initial_data + move_data * i).tolist() for i in range(100)] # In[2]: m = folium.Map([48., 5.], tiles='stamentoner', zoom_start=6) hm = plugins.HeatMapWithTime(data) hm.add_to(m) m # Now we show that the time index can be specified, allowing a more meaningful representation of what the time steps mean. We also enable the 'auto_play' option and change the maximum opacity. See the docmentation for a full list of options that can be used. # In[3]: from datetime import datetime, timedelta time_index = [ (datetime.now() + k * timedelta(1)).strftime('%Y-%m-%d') for k in range(len(data)) ] # In[4]: m = folium.Map([48., 5.], tiles='stamentoner', zoom_start=6) hm = plugins.HeatMapWithTime( data, index=time_index, auto_play=True, max_opacity=0.3 ) hm.add_to(m) m
