Package Exports

@turf/concave

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 (@turf/concave) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

@turf/concave

concave

Takes a set of points and returns a concave hull polygon.

Internally, this uses turf-tin to generate geometries.

Parameters

points FeatureCollection<Point> input points
maxEdge number the size of an edge necessary for part of the hull to become concave (in miles)
units string used for maxEdge distance (miles or kilometers)

Examples

var points = {
  "type": "FeatureCollection",
  "features": [
    {
      "type": "Feature",
      "properties": {},
      "geometry": {
        "type": "Point",
        "coordinates": [-63.601226, 44.642643]
      }
    }, {
      "type": "Feature",
      "properties": {},
      "geometry": {
        "type": "Point",
        "coordinates": [-63.591442, 44.651436]
      }
    }, {
      "type": "Feature",
      "properties": {},
      "geometry": {
        "type": "Point",
        "coordinates": [-63.580799, 44.648749]
      }
    }, {
      "type": "Feature",
      "properties": {},
      "geometry": {
        "type": "Point",
        "coordinates": [-63.573589, 44.641788]
      }
    }, {
      "type": "Feature",
      "properties": {},
      "geometry": {
        "type": "Point",
        "coordinates": [-63.587665, 44.64533]
      }
    }, {
      "type": "Feature",
      "properties": {},
      "geometry": {
        "type": "Point",
        "coordinates": [-63.595218, 44.64765]
      }
    }
  ]
};

var hull = turf.concave(points, 1, 'miles');

var resultFeatures = points.features.concat(hull);
var result = {
  "type": "FeatureCollection",
  "features": resultFeatures
};

//=result

Throws Error if maxEdge parameter is missing
Throws Error if units parameter is missing

Returns Feature<Polygon> a concave hull
