MKMapView 遮擋是否剔除它的註釋？ (Does MKMapView occlusion cull it's annotations?)
我正在嘗試在 MKMapView 上向用戶顯示數以千計的潛在圖釘（註釋）。有誰知道地圖是否使用遮擋剔除來僅渲染可見註釋？
這適用於使用 xCode 6.4 的 iOS 7+

方法 1:
When talking about managing large number of annotations, we should differentiate between "annotations" and "annotation views". When you add many annotations to a map view, the collection of those light‑weight MKAnnotation objects remain in the annotations array. But the map view offers a mechanism to mitigate the memory issues that can arise from a large number of associated "annotation views".
When you add thousands of annotations to a map view, the only annotation views that are instantiated are those that are visible (and those that near the visible portion of the map. If you properly use dequeueReusableAnnotationViewWithIdentifier in viewForAnnotation, as you scroll and annotations views fall out of view, when it needs new annotation views, it will recycle those that have scrolled out of view:
func mapView(mapView: MKMapView, viewForAnnotation annotation: MKAnnotation) ‑> MKAnnotationView? {
var annotationView = mapView.dequeueReusableAnnotationViewWithIdentifier(annotationIdentifier)
if annotationView == nil {
annotationView = MKPinAnnotationView(annotation: annotation, reuseIdentifier: annotationIdentifier)
} else {
annotationView?.annotation = annotation
}
return annotationView
}
Thus, this keeps the number of annotation views to some manageable number, not necessarily instantiating new annotation views until they're absolutely needed (i.e. there don't happen to be any old annotation views that have scrolled out of view, available for reuse).
If, however, the user zooms out on the map so there are an unmanageable number of annotation views visible simultaneously, you have to manage this situation yourself. Back in WWDC 2011, there was a video Visualizing Information Geographically with MapKit that demonstrates interesting model when dealing with tons of annotations. Specifically, they deal with the problem that you zoom out and there are so many annotation views that they start overlapping and become too numerous. This video demonstrates an approach in which you aggregate annotation views together as you scroll out (if necessary). The implementation is fairly rudimentary, but it illustrates the concept.
