geo-types

build status npm version

geo-types is a collection of data types for storing geographical or other vector data. It allows other libraries to interchange vector data as JavaScript objects with consistent semantics, both server-side and client-side. Only the basic classes needed to represent data are included.

geo-types has several benefits compared to using GeoJSON internally in an application:

  • Polygons and polylines may share points to preserve topology like in OpenStreetMap.
  • Complex WFS features are supported: attributes can be nested and contain geometries.

Other libraries can be used to operate on the data:

  • Converting from / to other formats.
  • Rendering.
  • Efficient storage and querying.
  • Boolean operations.
