A million grid assets, one draw call

A live MapLibre + deck.gl scene rendering 1,000,000 synthetic grid-asset points over Norway. All geometry is uploaded once as binary GPU buffers, so pan, zoom and animation cost no CPU re-tessellation. The hard part is keeping the buffer identity stable across frames so deck.gl never re-uploads.

Happy to walk through any of it.

Also built: embedded systems, moving-map engines, production Rust against Norwegian national geodata, and a live product of my own at solrapport.no.
