The **Map** view displays all contacts with known GPS coordinates on an OpenStreetMap-based map.

## Contact Markers

Contacts are shown as colored circle markers with type-specific icons:

| Color | Type |
|-------|------|
| Blue | Chat users |
| Green | Repeaters |
| Purple | Room servers |
| Orange | Sensors |
| Red | Your device |

Click a marker to open the contact's detail dialog. Hover to see the contact's name and coordinates.

## Filtering

Use the sidebar toggles to show or hide specific contact types (Users, Repeaters, Rooms, Sensors). A **Discovered Nodes** toggle controls whether nodes from the Discover Nearby Nodes scan are shown. The status label below shows how many contacts are visible on the map vs. total contacts.

## Clusters

When multiple contacts are close together at the current zoom level, they are grouped into numbered cluster markers. Click a cluster to zoom in or expand it into individual markers.

## Path Visualization

Path overlays can be shown on the map from:

- **Device view > Trace Path** -- after tracing a route, the path is drawn with SNR labels at each segment midpoint
- **Contact details > Show Path on Map** -- visualizes the established path to a contact

Path markers use the same colored circles as regular markers. SNR values are color-coded: green (good, ≥0 dB), dim (marginal, -5 to 0 dB), red (poor, <-5 dB).
