Package Exports

turf-random

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

Readme

turf-random

random

Generates random GeoJSON data, including Points and Polygons, for testing and experimentation.

Parameters

type [String] type of features desired: 'points' or 'polygons' (optional, default 'point')
count [Number] how many geometries should be generated. (optional, default 1)
options Object options relevant to the feature desired. Can include:
- options.bbox Array<number> a bounding box inside of which geometries are placed. In the case of Point features, they are guaranteed to be within this bounds, while Polygon features have their centroid within the bounds.
- options.num_vertices [Number] options.vertices the number of vertices added to polygon features. (optional, default 10)
- options.max_radial_length [Number] the total number of decimal degrees longitude or latitude that a polygon can extent outwards to from its center. (optional, default 10)

Examples

var points = turf.random('points', 100, {
  bbox: [-70, 40, -60, 60]
});

//=points

var polygons = turf.random('polygons', 4, {
  bbox: [-70, 40, -60, 60]
});

//=polygons
