Package Exports

fences-slicer

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 (fences-slicer) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

npm install fences-slicer

usage

standalone utility

When using fences-slicer from the command line, it expects the following config parameters in order to do its job.

Name	Description
`inputDir`	path to the directory containing geojson input files that need to be split into regions. Only `GEOJSON` files will be processed, all others will be skipped. Input files will not be modified.
`outputDir`	path to an existing directory that will contain output files after the slicer is done slicing.
`regionFile`	Geojson file containing regions to be used when slicing. Each region feature must have a `name` in properties.

The expected parameters can be specified via a config file like so:

$ fences-slicer --config=./etc/config.json

sample config file contents

{
  "inputDir": "/some/dir/planet-latest-fences",
  "outputDir": "/some/dir/planet-latest-fences-regions",
  "regionFile": "/some/geojson/file..geojson"
}

If not using a config file, or using a config file but need to override a particular parameter do this:

$ fences-slicer --inputDir=/path/different/from/config --config=./etc/config.json

dependency module

When using fences-slicer in your node.js package as dependency, you need to provide an input file and an array of regions, where each region has an output file and box. See example below.

var slicer = require('fences-slicer');

var param = {
  inputDir: '/some/dir/planet-fences/',
  inputFile: 'planet-level-2.geojson',
  outputDir: '/some/dir/to/throw/output/',
  regionFile: '/etc/my/regions.geojson'
};

slicer.extractRegions(params, function () {
  console.log('fences sliced successfully!');
});
