turf-planepoint

planepoint

Takes a triangular plane as a Polygon and a Point within that triangle and returns the z-value at that point. The Polygon needs to have properties a, b, and c that define the values at its three corners.

Parameters

• point Feature<Point> the Point for which a z-value will be calculated
• triangle Feature<Polygon> a Polygon feature with three vertices

Examples

var point = {
  "type": "Feature",
  "properties": {},
  "geometry": {
    "type": "Point",
    "coordinates": [-75.3221, 39.529]
  }
};
var point = turf.point([-75.3221, 39.529]);
// triangle is a polygon with "a", "b",
// and "c" values representing
// the values of the coordinates in order.
var triangle = {
  "type": "Feature",
  "properties": {
    "a": 11,
    "b": 122,
    "c": 44
  },
  "geometry": {
    "type": "Polygon",
    "coordinates": [[
      [-75.1221, 39.57],
      [-75.58, 39.18],
      [-75.97, 39.86],
      [-75.1221, 39.57]
    ]]
  }
};
 
var features = {
  "type": "FeatureCollection",
  "features": [triangle, point]
};
 
var zValue = turf.planepoint(point, triangle);
 
//=features
 
//=zValue

Returns Number the z-value for interpolatedPoint
