}

Code Examples

TypeScript

interface GeoJSONPoint {
  type: 'Feature';
  geometry: {
    type: 'Point';
    coordinates: [number, number]; // [longitude, latitude]
  };
  properties?: Record<string, any>;
}

interface GeoJSONFeatureCollection {
  type: 'FeatureCollection';
  features: GeoJSONPoint[];
}

// Create point feature
function createPoint(lng: number, lat: number, properties = {}) {
  return {
    type: 'Feature',
    geometry: {
      type: 'Point',
      coordinates: [lng, lat]
    },
    properties
  };
}

💡 Tips

Coordinates are [longitude, latitude] (not lat, lng!)
Use FeatureCollection for multiple features
Add properties for metadata
GeoJSON works with Leaflet, Mapbox, etc.
Validate with geojson.io

⚠️ Common Pitfalls

Coordinate order is [lng, lat], not [lat, lng]
Coordinates must be numbers, not strings
Don't forget "type" fields
Large GeoJSON files can be slow
