@turf/bbox-clip

bboxClip

Takes a Feature and a bbox and clips the feature to the bbox using lineclip. May result in degenerate edges when clipping Polygons.

Parameters

• feature Feature<(LineString | MultiLineString | Polygon | MultiPolygon)> feature to clip to the bbox
• bbox BBox extent in [minX, minY, maxX, maxY] order

Examples

var bbox = [0, 0, 10, 10];
var poly = turf.polygon([[[2, 2], [8, 4], [12, 8], [3, 7], [2, 2]]]);

var clipped = turf.bboxClip(poly, bbox);

//addToMap
var addToMap = [bbox, poly, clipped]

Returns Feature<(LineString | MultiLineString | Polygon | MultiPolygon)> clipped Feature

jsts

The jsts (JavaScript Topology Suite) library offers a wide range of geospatial operations, including clipping geometries to a bounding box. While it provides more comprehensive geospatial processing capabilities, it is also more complex and has a steeper learning curve compared to @turf/bbox-clip.
