turf-convex

convex

Takes a set of points and returns a convex hull polygon.

Internally this uses the convex-hull module that implements a monotone chain hull.

Parameters

• featurecollection FeatureCollection<Point> input points

Examples

var points = {
  "type": "FeatureCollection",
  "features": [
    {
      "type": "Feature",
