Prerequisite
NOTES
1) If you need to use < php7.2, please stay with version 1.x
2) Aside from Laravel >= 5.5, the package below is required
Install
Install Geometry:
$ composer require spinen/laravel-geometry
The package uses the auto registration feature.
Using the package
The Geometry Class exposes parseType methods where "Type" is StudlyCase of the geometry type that geoPHP supports. Here is a full list...
- parseEwkb($geometry)
- parseEwkt($geometry)
- parseGeoHash($geometry)
- parseGeoJson($geometry)
- parseGeoRss($geometry)
- parseGoogleGeocode($geometry)
- parseGpx($geometry)
- parseJson($geometry)
- parseKml($geometry)
- parseWkb($geometry)
- parseWkt($geometry)
The geometries are wrapped in a Spinen\Geometry\Geometries namespace with a little sugar to be able to do
- toEwkb()
- toEwkt()
- toGeoHash()
- toGeoJson()
- toGeoRss()
- toGoogleGeocode()
- toGpx()
- toJson()
- toKml()
- toWkb()
- toWkt()
In addition to the above export methods, we have added a toArray that gives an array from the toJson method. For convenience, we have exposed all of the properties of the geometry through a getter, so you have direct access to the property without having ask for the keys in the array.
Area of the polygon
We are estimating the area in meters squared & acres. We expect the estimation to be within 1%, so it is not very accurate. We essentially refactored a js method that Mapbox has in their geojson-area package . You get the area by calling the getAcres or getSquareMeters. There is a shortcut to them as properties, so you can read the "acres" or "square_meters" property.
Example
// Area of Polygon $points = [[1,1], [2,2], [3,2], [3,4]]; $geoJson = '{"type":"Polygon", "coordinates":[' . json_encode($points) . ']}'; $geo = new geoPHP(); $mapper = new Spinen\Geometry\Support\TypeMapper(); $geometry = new Spinen\Geometry\Geometry($geo, $mapper); $collection = $geometry->parseGeoJson($geoJson); // see above for more parse options $squareMeters = $collection->getSquareMeters(); $acres = $collection->getAcres();
