GeoJson

Represents a GeoJSON object or an array of GeoJSON objects. Allows you to parse GeoJSON data and display it on the map. Extends FeatureGroup.

L.geoJson(data, {
	style: function (feature) {
		return {color: feature.properties.color};
	},
	onEachFeature: function (feature, layer) {
		layer.bindPopup(feature.properties.description);
	}
}).addTo(map);

Each feature layer created by it gets a feature property that links to the GeoJSON feature data the layer was created from (so that you can access its properties later).

Creation

Factory Description
L.geoJson( <Object> geojson?, <GeoJSON options> options? ) Creates a GeoJSON layer. Optionally accepts an object in GeoJSON format to display on the map (you can alternatively add it later with addData method) and an options object.

Options

Option Description
pointToLayer( <GeoJSON> featureData, <LatLng> latlng ) Function that will be used for creating layers for GeoJSON points (if not specified, simple markers will be created).
style( <GeoJSON> featureData ) Function that will be used to get style options for vector layers created for GeoJSON features.
onEachFeature( <GeoJSON> featureData, <ILayer> layer ) Function that will be called on each created feature layer. Useful for attaching events and popups to features.
filter( <GeoJSON> featureData, <ILayer> layer ) Function that will be used to decide whether to show a feature or not.
coordsToLatLng( <Array> coords ) Function that will be used for converting GeoJSON coordinates to LatLng points (if not specified, coords will be assumed to be WGS84 — standard [longitude, latitude] values in degrees).

Additionally accepts all Path options for polylines and polygons.

Methods

Method Returns Description
addData( <GeoJSON> data ) this Adds a GeoJSON object to the layer.
setStyle( <Function> style ) this Changes styles of GeoJSON vector layers with the given style function.
resetStyle( <Path> layer ) this Resets the given vector layer's style to the original GeoJSON style, useful for resetting style after hover events.

Static methods

Method Returns Description
geometryToLayer( <GeoJSON> featureData, <Function> pointToLayer? ) ILayer Creates a layer from a given GeoJSON feature.
coordsToLatLng( <Array> coords, <Boolean> reverse? ) LatLng Creates a LatLng object from an array of 2 numbers (latitude, longitude) used in GeoJSON for points. If reverse is set to true, the numbers will be interpreted as (longitude, latitude).
coordsToLatLngs( <Array> coords, <Number> levelsDeep?, <Boolean> reverse? ) Array Creates a multidimensional array of LatLng objects from a GeoJSON coordinates array. levelsDeep specifies the nesting level (0 is for an array of points, 1 for an array of arrays of points, etc., 0 by default). If reverse is set to true, the numbers will be interpreted as (longitude, latitude).
