GeoJSONformaattia

GeoJSONformaattia is a data format used for representing simple geographical features along with their non-spatial attributes. It is a specialized variant of the JSON format, designed to encode a variety of geographic data structures. The primary purpose of GeoJSONformaattia is to facilitate the exchange and storage of geographic information across the web and other applications.

The core components of GeoJSONformaattia include geometry types and GeoJSON objects. Geometry types describe the shape of a geographic feature, such as Point, LineString, Polygon, MultiPoint, MultiLineString, MultiPolygon, and GeometryCollection. Each geometry type has a specific structure for defining coordinates. For example, a Point consists of a single coordinate pair, while a LineString is an ordered list of two or more coordinate pairs.

GeoJSON objects are used to represent geographic features. A Feature object contains a geometry member and a properties member. The geometry member holds a GeoJSON geometry object, while the properties member is a JSON object that can contain any arbitrary JSON value representing non-spatial attributes associated with the feature. A FeatureCollection object is a collection of Feature objects.

GeoJSONformaattia is widely adopted in web mapping libraries and services, making it a de facto standard for sharing geospatial data online. Its human-readable JSON structure and flexibility allow for easy integration with various programming languages and databases.
