Abstract
A system that clusters map markers on a map receives a plurality of map markers, each having an associated location on the map and at least one attribute, and a characteristic corresponding to the attribute. The system location clusters the map markers based on the location within a cluster. The system then groups the clustered map markers based on the associated attribute, where each grouped marker retains the corresponding characteristic. The system then positions the grouped map markers within the corresponding cluster.
