"Sample Nearest" or "Index of Nearest" gives us a single point of data, but I'm scratching my head on how to count multiple neighbouring points in a given range. Essentially I want to add a dynamic "pointDensity" named attribute to each point given its proximity to others using a map range. Basically a heat map of proximity.

I'm absolutely stumped, yet I suspect I'm missing something simple. Any ideas?

You can use this solution to connect the points with edges and then count the edges:

Selectively join points using geometry nodes

In Blender 4.0 onward you can use a repeat zone like so:

Instead of using a threshold you could just sum up the distances…
