"""
Traffic Density Heatmap — Automatum Data Highway Area Pools (Multi-Drone)
Generates a 2D heatmap of all vehicle positions over time.

Usage:
    python 02_heatmap_density.py <path_to_recording_folder>

Example:
    python 02_heatmap_density.py ../Sample_Data/Pool-Highway-A9-OffenbauRastanlage_c025-c02598c7-fa60-4302-8cee-12a05f4e0db6

Output:
