About Hex Density chart

Hex density charts are used in a similar way to scatter charts, however rather than rendering tens of thousands of points, it groups the points into a few hundred hexagons to show the distribution.

Before interpreting the result

Open a local file for binary media. Supported formats depend on the operation and decoder. Large images are bounded by pixel and memory limits; previews may differ from the original downloaded bytes.

How to use this page

  1. Paste your input or open a local file.
  2. Adjust tool options if needed, then choose Run tool.
  3. Copy the result or download the original output bytes.

Inputs and results are not added to the public catalogue or saved in the URL. Processing happens in your browser; HTTP Request and DNS over HTTPS send the requests you explicitly run. Files up to 128 MiB can be opened; decompression and image tools may have smaller processing limits. Large results have a shortened preview. Text and HTML downloads use UTF-8; binary downloads preserve output bytes. Pasted text follows browser newline handling; open a file when exact input bytes matter.
