geojson-coordinateProperties
A GeoJSON extension proposal that adds an encoding
for time & heart rate data along a LineString geometry.
Requirements Language
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
Definitions
JavaScript Object Notation (JSON), and the terms object, name, value, array, number, true, false, and null are to be interpreted as defined in [RFC7159].
Inside this document the term "geometry type" refers to the seven case-sensitive strings: "Point", "MultiPoint", "LineString", "MultiLineString", "Polygon", "MultiPolygon", and "GeometryCollection".
As another shorthand notation, the term "GeoJSON types" refers to the nine case-sensitive strings "Feature", "FeatureCollection" and the geometry types listed above.
Example
A GeoJSON feature collection with coordinateProperties:
{
"type": "FeatureCollection",
"features": [{
"type": "Feature",
"geometry": {
"type": "LineString",
"coordinates": [
[102.0, 0.0],
[103.0, 1.0],
[104.0, 0.0],
[105.0, 1.0]
]
},
"properties": {
"prop0": "value0",
"prop1": 0.0,
"coordinateProperties": {
"times": [
1434126869275,
1434136869275,
1434146869275,
1434166869275
]
}
}
}]
}MultiLineString Geometry with higher level of nesting
{
"type": "FeatureCollection",
"features": [{
"type": "Feature",
"geometry": {
"type": "MultiLineString",
"coordinates": [
[
[102.0, 0.0],
[103.0, 1.0]
],
[
[104.0, 0.0],
[105.0, 1.0]
]
]
},
"properties": {
"prop0": "value0",
"prop1": 0.0,
"coordinateProperties": {
"times": [
[
1434126869275,
1434136869275,
],
[
1434146869275,
1434166869275
]
]
}
}
}]
}coordinateProperties
coordinateProperties is a special property that MAY be included in the properties
member of a Feature object.
coordinateProperties MAY contain one or more members, which each MUST have a value
of type Array. Each Array value MUST have have the same length
as the coordinates member of the LineString geometry of that Feature.
The nesting level of the array MUST match the nesting level of the geometry,
such that each LinearRing of the geometry yields an array in the coordinateProperties,
and each position in the geometry yields one concrete value.
Members of the coordinateProperties property can
have any name, but semantics of two names are defined:
times
A times member of the coordinateProperties MUST contain values that are either
- A Number corresponding to a Unix timestamp in milliseconds since 1 January 1970 00:00:00 UTC.
- An internet date/time string as in RFC 3339.
null, indicating no data for this coordinate
heart
A heart member of the coordinateProperties MUST contain values that are either
- A Number indicating heart-beats per minute
null, indicating no data for this coordinate
