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",

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

Returns Feature<Polygon> a concave hull
