Count points inside a pixel in QGIS

Question

I have a raster and a vector point file. I need to generate another raster of same resolution showing how many points are inside the corresponding pixels of the original raster.

Something like that:

Is there a way of doing that in QGIS?

I just want the number of points, no attributes involved.

Answer 1

I am not sure how to do it in QGIS, but it is quite straightforward with GRASS using the tool r.in.xyz with method=n

Have a look at this QA: https://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Count_points_in_raster_cells
