When faced with the challenge of visualizing a 1km² population grid of Europe whilst rendering everything client-side, my initial attempt was to use a 2D HTML Canvas and call fillRect() for each grid cell. This method however simply couldnt handle the quantity of cells we wanted to show, bearing in mind that a 1km grid of europe has over 2 million cells.

Next up was PixiJS - a 2D WebGL renderer designed for game developers. This also struggled to handle the sheer amount of points we were trying to render. After looking around, it seemed that Three.js was capable of handling huge amounts of points, so I decided to go in that direction, even though we did not need any 3D capability at all. There were other alternatives available such as potree - a point-cloud viewer, or REGL - a lower level library. However although highly performant, they offered less funcionality when compared with Three.js, which will prove useful later on in development when we manipulate the cell attributes and add features such as raycasting.

The use of WebGL in GIS has increased in recent years, with the likes of CesiumJS, Mapbox GL JS, deck.gl and kepler.gl all gaining popularity, and rightly so. When compared with traditional methods such as SVG and Canvas, WebGL out-performs them significantly, so when presented with the task of visualizing huge amounts of grid cells on a web browser, this seemed the most logical path to go down.

Then we add a few properties to play around with: label is what's shown in the tooltip, position stores the x and y coordinates in an array and value represents the population attribute that will be used for color interpolation.
