distance

Calculate distance between two GeoJSON points

pt1 <- '{
  "type": "Feature",
  "properties": {
    "marker-color": "#f00"
   },
   "geometry": {
      "type": "Point",
      "coordinates": [-75.343, 39.984]
   }
}'
#'
pt2 <- '{
  "type": "Feature",
  "properties": {
     "marker-color": "#0f0"
   },
   "geometry": {
      "type": "Point",
      "coordinates": [-75.534, 39.123]
    }
}'

geo_distance(pt1, pt2)

bearing

Calculate bearing between two points

geo_bearing(pt1, pt2)

destination

geo_destination(pt1, 50, 90, 'miles')

line distance

Calculate length of GeoJSON LineString or Polygon

line <- '{
  "type": "Feature",
  "properties": {},
  "geometry": {
    "type": "LineString",
    "coordinates": [
      [-77.031669, 38.878605],
      [-77.029609, 38.881946],
      [-77.020339, 38.884084],
      [-77.025661, 38.885821],
      [-77.021884, 38.889563],
      [-77.019824, 38.892368]
    ]
  }
}'
geo_line_distance(line, units = "kilometers")

nearest

Calculate nearest point to a reference point

point1 <- '{
  "type": "Feature",
  "properties": {
     "marker-color": "#0f0"
   },
  "geometry": {
     "type": "Point",
     "coordinates": [28.965797, 41.010086]
  }
}'
#'
points <- '{
  "type": "FeatureCollection",
  "features": [
    {
      "type": "Feature",
      "properties": {},
      "geometry": {
        "type": "Point",
        "coordinates": [28.973865, 41.011122]
      }
    }, {

      "geometry": {
        "type": "Point",
        "coordinates": [28.948459, 41.024204]
      }
    }, {
      "type": "Feature",
      "properties": {},
      "geometry": {
        "type": "Point",
        "coordinates": [28.938674, 41.013324]
      }
    }
  ]
}'
geo_nearest(point1, points)
