Units

Linear measurement units.

⚠️ Warning. Be aware of the implications of using radian or degree units to measure distance. The distance represented by a degree of longitude varies depending on latitude.

See https://www.thoughtco.com/degree-of-latitude-and-longitude-distance-4070616 for an illustration of this behaviour.

Type: ("meters" | "metres" | "millimeters" | "millimetres" | "centimeters" | "centimetres" | "kilometers" | "kilometres" | "miles" | "nauticalmiles" | "inches" | "yards" | "feet" | "radians" | "degrees")

AreaUnits

Area measurement units.

Type: (Exclude<Units, ("radians" | "degrees")> | "acres" | "hectares")

Grid

Grid types.

Type: ("point" | "square" | "hex" | "triangle")

Corners

Shorthand corner identifiers.

Type: ("sw" | "se" | "nw" | "ne" | "center" | "centroid")

AllGeoJSON

Convenience type for all possible GeoJSON.

earthRadius

The Earth radius in kilometers. Used by Turf modules that model the Earth as a sphere. The mean radius was selected because it is recommended by the Haversine formula (used by turf/distance) to reduce error.

Keys are the name of the unit, values are the number of that unit in a single radian

areaFactors

Area of measurement factors based on 1 square meter.

Type: Record<AreaUnits, number>
