How does smart mapping work with heat mapping?
Smart mapping will recognize when a points layer is added to the map and by default the points will be symbolized by location. As the map maker, you can go beyond this default by showing your points as a heat map which can tell a better story about density. Heat mapping allows us to see the location and distribution of features.
