collect

Merges a specified property from a FeatureCollection of points into a FeatureCollection of polygons. Given an inProperty on points and an outProperty for polygons, this finds every point that lies within each polygon, collects the inProperty values from those points, and adds them as an array to outProperty on the polygon.

Parameters

• polygons FeatureCollection<Polygon> polygons with values on which to aggregate
• points FeatureCollection<Point> points to be aggregated
• inProperty string property to be nested from
• outProperty string property to be nested into

Examples

var poly1 = turf.polygon([[[0,0],[10,0],[10,10],[0,10],[0,0]]]);
var poly2 = turf.polygon([[[10,0],[20,10],[20,20],[20,0],[10,0]]]);
var polyFC = turf.featureCollection([poly1, poly2]);
var pt1 = turf.point([5,5], {population: 200});
var pt2 = turf.point([1,3], {population: 600});
var pt3 = turf.point([14,2], {population: 100});
var pt4 = turf.point([13,1], {population: 200});
var pt5 = turf.point([19,7], {population: 300});
var pointFC = turf.featureCollection([pt1, pt2, pt3, pt4, pt5]);
var collected = turf.collect(polyFC, pointFC, 'population', 'values');
var values = collected.features[0].properties.values
//=values => [200, 600]

//addToMap
var addToMap = [pointFC, collected]

Returns FeatureCollection<Polygon> polygons with properties listed based on outField
