+title: Hit Tolerance
+shortdesc: Example using the hitTolerance parameter.
+docs: >
+  By default, the map.forEachFeatureAtPixel() function only considers features that are directly under the provided
+  pixel. This can make it difficult to interact with features on touch devices. To consider features within some
+  distance of the provided pixel, use the hitTolerance option. For example,
+  map.forEachFeatureAtPixel(pixel, callback, {hitTolerance: 3}) will call the callback with all features that are
+  within three pixels of the provided pixel.
