How to use it

Instantiate a new heatmap, errors can be one of:
Webgl is not supported No floating point texture support Floating point render target not supported Shader Compile Error: ... Shader Link Error: ...

try{
    var heatmap = new WebGLHeatmap({canvas: yourCanvas});
}
catch(error){
    // handle the error
}

creation arguments
canvas: the canvas you wish to draw on width: explicit width height: explicit height intensityToAlpha: defaults to true gradientTexture: texture used instead of color calculation, can be path or an image
Add a data point.
x and y relative to the canvas in pixels size in pixels (radius) intensity between 0 and 1

heatmap.addPoint(x, y, size, intensity);

Add a list of data points.
x and y relative to the canvas in pixels size in pixels (radius) intensity between 0 and 1

heatmap.addPoints([{x:x, y:y, size:size, intensity:intensity}]);

Draw queued data points:

heatmap.update()

Display the heatmap

heatmap.display()

Multiply all values in the heatmap by a number (useful for decay)

heatmap.multiply(0.995)

Clamp all values in the heatmap to between two values:

heatmap.clamp(0.0, 1.0)

Blur all values a little:

heatmap.blur()
