Usage

Core Library (Node.js and Browser)

NPM Installation

import { geoai } from "geoai";

// Initialize the pipeline with ESRI provider (no API key required)
const pipeline = await geoai.pipeline([{ task: "object-detection" }], {
  provider: "esri",
});

// Run inference
const result = await pipeline.inference({
  inputs: {
    polygon: geoJsonFeature,
  },
  mapSourceParams: {
    zoomLevel: 18,
  },
});

CDN Usage

// When using CDN, geoai is available globally
const pipeline = await geoai.pipeline([{ task: "object-detection" }], {
  provider: "esri",
});

const result = await pipeline.inference({
  inputs: {
    polygon: geoJsonFeature,
  },
  mapSourceParams: {
    zoomLevel: 18,
  },
});

React Hooks

import { useGeoAIWorker } from "geoai/react";

function MyComponent() {
  const { inference, isLoading, error } = useGeoAIWorker({
    tasks: ["object-detection"],
    provider: "esri", // No API key required for ESRI
  });

  const handleInference = async () => {
    const result = await inference({
      inputs: { polygon: geoJsonFeature },
      mapSourceParams: { zoomLevel: 18 },
    });
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={handleInference} disabled={isLoading}>
        {isLoading ? "Processing..." : "Run Detection"}
      </button>
      {error && <div>Error: {error.message}</div>}
    </div>
  );
}
