Dot density challenge 1:
Display the number of pubs across the UK. Upload the data, add it to a style, and adjust the radius size to 1 px. Users will see that pubs are sprinkled throughout the region but have dense concentrations in cities such as London and Nottingham.
Dot density challenge 2:
Filter the data by 'points' removing points that are equal to 0. Then color the circles by potential points earned: 2, 4, 6, 8 - try moving the road network higher up in the layer stack to show the points that fall along major roadways.
