+title: Distribution heatmaps for Workers Observability
+description: Visualize numeric fields like request latency over time to identify outliers, clusters, and long-tail behavior.

+
+Workers Observability now supports distribution heatmaps for numeric fields. Heatmaps visualize how values such as request latency change over time, making outliers, multiple clusters, and long-tail behavior easier to identify than with averages alone.
+
+Distribution heatmaps provide additional context when investigating performance issues. You can hover to examine values, zoom into a specific time range, and select an area to view the events and traces associated with slow requests.
