Local SEO Heatmaps points 1000 Each pin on a heatmap uses 1 quota point. Quota is consumed every time Search Atlas runs, refreshes, or prefetches a scan. For circle maps, more layers mean more quota: for example, 1 layer uses 7 points, 2 layers 20, 3 layers 39, and so on up to 7 layers at 175. Rectangular grids use quota based on size, such as 3×3 needing 9 points, 4×4 needing 16, up to 7×7 at 49 points. For example, choosing a circle with 3 layers (61 pins) and scanning weekly would use about 244 credits per month. More > Local SEO > Local SEO Heatmap Yes
