Package Exports

@spatial/ellipse

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@spatial/ellipse) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

@spatial/ellipse

ellipse

Takes a Point and calculates the ellipse polygon given two semi-axes expressed in variable units and steps for precision.

Parameters

center Coord center point
xSemiAxis number semi (major) axis of the ellipse along the x-axis
ySemiAxis number semi (minor) axis of the ellipse along the y-axis
options Object Optional parameters (optional, default {})
- options.angle number angle of rotation (along the vertical axis), from North in decimal degrees, negative clockwise (optional, default 0)
- options.pivot Coord point around which the rotation will be performed (optional, default 'origin')
- options.steps number number of steps (optional, default 64)
- options.units string unit of measurement for axes (optional, default 'kilometers')
- options.properties Object properties (optional, default {})

Examples

var center = [-75, 40];
var xSemiAxis = 5;
var ySemiAxis = 2;
var ellipse = turf.ellipse(center, xSemiAxis, ySemiAxis);

//addToMap
var addToMap = [turf.point(center), ellipse]
