<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">When you say “spidering” do you mean connecting points with lines (aka hub lines) like spokes on a wheel? What have you tried?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">For line features, i.e. the links, you can tell QGIS to merge features to remove duplicate labels.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">For point features you could use rule based labelling to only show labels on certain features or the geometry generator and aggregate functions to create a layer used exclusively for labelling.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">You might also be able to scale the feature on the number of aggregated features – more points in the same location = bigger feature.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The point displacement function might help too but I find that adds clutter at small scales and needs to be used with care.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Roboto Slab"">Hi,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Roboto Slab"">I was wondering if any knows how to do ‘clustering’ or ‘spidering’ of multiple instances on 1 geo coordinate. Simply laying 1 instance on top of another only hides items and placing
next or overlapping is a mess.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Roboto Slab"">Thanks for any help.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
