    GeoDots
===============

A geospatial view with locations marked by dots, using `GeoJS
<https://geojs.readthedocs.io>`_. The **latitude** and **longitude** fields
should contain lat/long values for each location in the data.

Example
=======

.. raw:: html

    <div id="geodots-example" style="width: 700px; height: 700px"></div>
    <script type="text/javascript" >
        var el = document.getElementById('geodots-example');
        var data = [
          {lat: 41.702, lng: -87.644, a: 5},
          {lat: 41.617, lng: -87.693, a: 15},
          {lat: 41.715, lng: -87.712, a: 25}
        ];
        var vis = new candela.components.GeoDots(el, {
          zoom: 10,
          center: { longitude: -87.6194, latitude: 41.867516 },
          data: data,
          latitude: 'lat',
          longitude: 'lng',
          size: 'a',
          color: 'a'
        });
        vis.render();
    </script>

**JavaScript**

.. code-block:: html

     el.style.width = '500px';
     el.style.height = '500px';
     document.body.appendChild(el);

     var data = [

       {lat: 41.715, lng: -87.712, a: 25}
     ];
     var vis = new candela.components.GeoDots(el, {
       zoom: 10,
       center: {
         longitude: -87.6194,
         latitude: 41.867516
       },
       data: data,
       latitude: 'lat',

        dict(lat=41.702, lng=-87.644, a=5),
        dict(lat=41.617, lng=-87.693, a=15),
        dict(lat=41.715, lng=-87.712, a=25)
    ]

    pycandela.components.GeoDots(
        zoom=10,
        center=dict(longitude=-87.6194, latitude=41.867516),

    )

**R**

.. code-block:: r

    library(candela)

    data = list(
      list(lat=41.702, lng=-87.644, a=5),
      list(lat=41.617, lng=-87.693, a=15),
