Class GeoJson

java.lang.Object

com.allanbank.mongodb.builder.GeoJson

public final class GeoJson
extends Object

GeoJson provides static methods to help create GeoJSON BSON Documents.

This class uses the Point and Point2D classes to represent GeoJSON positions. To assist in converting raw (x, y) coordinates the p(double, double) and p(int, int) methods are provides to quickly construct the Point instances.

As an example of using this class consider the following Polygon with a hole from the GeoJSON specification:

 
 { "type": "Polygon",
   "coordinates": [
     [ [100.0, 0.0], [101.0, 0.0], [101.0, 1.0], [100.0, 1.0], [100.0, 0.0] ],
     [ [100.2, 0.2], [100.8, 0.2], [100.8, 0.8], [100.2, 0.8], [100.2, 0.2] ]
     ]
  }
 
 

The equivalent BSON document can be constructed via:

 
 import static com.allanbank.mongodb.builder.GeoJson.polygon;
 import static com.allanbank.mongodb.builder.GeoJson.p;
 
 Document geoJsonPolygon = polygon(
      Arrays.asList( p(100.0, 0.0), p(101.0, 0.0), p(101.0, 1.0), p(100.0, 1.0), p(100.0, 0.0) ),
      Arrays.asList( p(100.2, 0.2), p(100.8, 0.2), p(100.8, 0.8), p(100.2, 0.8), p(100.2, 0.2) ) );

Method Detail

lineString

public static Document lineString(List<? extends Point2D> points)
                           throws IllegalArgumentException

Constructs a GeoJSON 'LineString' document from the coordinates provided.

Parameters:

points - The positions in the line string. There should be at least 2 positions for the document to be a valid LineString.

Returns:

A GeoJSON LineString document from the coordinates provided.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - If the list does not contain at least 2 points.

lineString

public static Document lineString(Point2D p1,
                  Point2D p2,
                  Point2D... remaining)

Constructs a GeoJSON 'LineString' document from the coordinates provided.

Parameters:

p1 - The first position in the line string.

p2 - The second position in the line string.

remaining - The remaining positions in the line string.

Returns:

A GeoJSON LineString document from the coordinates provided.

multiLineString

public static Document multiLineString(List<? extends Point2D> firstLineString,
                       List<? extends Point2D>... additionalLineStrings)

Note: You will need to add a @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") to uses of this method as Java does not like mixing generics and varargs. The @SafeVarargs annotation is not available in Java 1.6, the minimum version for the driver.

Parameters:

firstLineString - The first line string.

additionalLineStrings - The remaining line strings.

Returns:

A GeoJSON MultiLineString document from the coordinates provided.
