Description
Relevant for 100k+ observations
Points: Datashader and friends
Lines: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2512.16017
Maybe this isn't for Hephaestus to do as it is basically a stats operation which is generally not hephaestus' job

Research direction
Start by reading the linked arXiv paper and reviewing how density-based rendering relates to Datashader for 100k+ observations. No files, tests, or entry points are identified, so first determine whether this belongs in Hephaestus or should remain a statistics-layer responsibility. Done means a clearly agreed scope and implementation direction.
