FREQUENTLY ASKED
How does the heat map work?

Brighter, more intense zones indicate clusters of high-scoring cafes. The heat intensity is weighted by score — an 8.5 cafe generates more heat than a 6.0. Green zones are where the best coffee is concentrated.

How many cafes are mapped?

395 cafes with GPS coordinates out of 395+ total reviewed across Australia.

What do the colours mean?

Green = 8.0+ (Great/Elite). Teal = 7.0+ (Solid/Must Visit). Yellow = 6.0+ (Decent). Orange = 5.0+. Red = below 5.0 (Avoid).

Can I switch between heat map and pins?

Yes. Use the toggle above the map to switch between Heat Map view (shows quality density) and Pin Map view (shows individual cafes). Both are filterable by city and score.
