@turf/boolean-contains

@turf/boolean-contains

booleanContains

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

Parameters

• feature1 (Geometry | Feature<any>) GeoJSON Feature or Geometry
• feature2 (Geometry | Feature<any>) GeoJSON Feature or Geometry

Examples

var line = turf.lineString([[1, 1], [1, 2], [1, 3], [1, 4]]);
var point = turf.point([1, 2]);

turf.booleanContains(line, point);
//=true

Returns boolean true/false

This module is part of the Turfjs project, an open source module collection dedicated to geographic algorithms. It is maintained in the Turfjs/turf repository, where you can create PRs and issues.

geolib

Geolib is a library for geospatial calculations. It provides functions to check if a point is inside a polygon, calculate distances, and more. Compared to @turf/boolean-contains, geolib offers a broader range of geospatial functions but may not be as specialized in GeoJSON operations.

jsts

JSTS (JavaScript Topology Suite) is a library for performing operations on geometries. It includes functions for spatial relationships like contains, intersects, and more. JSTS is more comprehensive in terms of geometric operations but can be more complex to use compared to @turf/boolean-contains.

leaflet

Leaflet is a popular library for interactive maps. It includes basic geospatial functions like checking if a point is within a polygon. While Leaflet is primarily focused on map rendering and interaction, it provides some geospatial analysis capabilities similar to @turf/boolean-contains.
