@turf/bezier

@turf/bezier

bezier

Takes a line and returns a curved version by applying a Bezier spline algorithm.

The bezier spline implementation is by Leszek Rybicki.

Parameters

• line Feature<LineString> input LineString
• resolution [number] time in milliseconds between points (optional, default 10000)
• sharpness [number] a measure of how curvy the path should be between splines (optional, default 0.85)

Examples

var line = turf.lineString([
  [-76.091308, 18.427501],
  [-76.695556, 18.729501],
  [-76.552734, 19.40443],
  [-74.61914, 19.134789],
  [-73.652343, 20.07657],
  [-73.157958, 20.210656]
]);

var curved = turf.bezier(line);

//addToMap
var addToMap = [line, curved]
curved.properties = { stroke: '#0F0' };

Returns Feature<LineString> curved line

🚀 New Modules

[@turf/projection][projection]

• toMercator: Converts a WGS84 GeoJSON object into Mercator (EPSG:900913) projection
• toWgs84: Converts a Mercator (EPSG:900913) GeoJSON object into WGS84 projection

(PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/927 - Author @stebogit)

[@turf/point-to-line-distance][point-to-line-distance]

Returns the minimum distance between a {@link Point} and a {@link LineString}, being the distance from a line the minimum distance between the point and any segment of the LineString.

(PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/925 - Author @stebogit)

[@turf/boolean-within][boolean-within]

Boolean-within returns true if the first geometry is completely within the second geometry. The interiors of both geometries must intersect and, the interior and boundary of the primary (geometry a) must not intersect the exterior of the secondary (geometry b). Boolean-within returns the exact opposite result of the [@turf/boolean-contains][boolean-contains].
