### accomplish

Let's introduce how to draw a common scatter plot.

- you can`L7`Found on the official website[Online case](/en/examples/point/scatter/scatter/)

```javascript
import { Scene, PointLayer } from '@antv/l7';
import { GaodeMap } from '@antv/l7-maps';

const scene = new Scene({
  id: 'map',
  map: new GaodeMap({
    style: 'light',
    center: [-121.24357, 37.58264],
    zoom: 6.45,
  }),
});
scene.on('loaded', () => {
  fetch('https://gw.alipayobjects.com/os/basement_prod/6c4bb5f2-850b-419d-afc4-e46032fc9f94.csv')
    .then((res) => res.text())
    .then((data) => {
      const pointLayer = new PointLayer({})
        .source(data, {
          parser: {
            type: 'csv',
            x: 'Longitude',
            y: 'Latitude',
          },
        })
        .shape('circle')
        .size(4)
        .color('Magnitude', [
          '#0A3663',
          '#1558AC',

          '#B8EFE2',
          '#D7F9F0',
        ]);
      scene.addLayer(pointLayer);
    });
