  Bounding Box Top Bottom Left Right GeoPHP is used to Centroid calculate the Lat Bounding Box and Lon Centroid from the Geometry. Geometry Stored in WKT Format Geometry Types: Soon will be WKB • Point WKT Example: • LineString POLYGON ((30 10, 10 20, • Polygon 20 40, 40 40, 30 10)) • MultiPoint Query-able and indexable • MultiLineString • MultiPolygon Not Query-able. SELECTs only. • GeometryCollection

  OpenLayers and Views Repeat after me “I need to create two views. One view hold the layer. The other view holds the map.”
• 8.
  GeoJSON View (views_geojson module) GeoJSON Layer 1. Create a page view 2. Add geofield field to field list /feeds/layer.json 3. Set format to GeoJSON feed Layer should automatically and select geofield appear in your layers list Exposed & Contextual Filters OpenLayers Map View 1. Create a page, block or pane OpenLayers Map view 2. Set format to OpenLayers Map 1. Add layer to map and 3. Optional: set-up exposed configure map as desired filters identically to first view 2. Click “Preview” to make sure 4. Profit! your map is working

  Maps Styles Brings Behaviors and Provide static and Layers (and implicitly dynamic styling to Styles and Layer-Types) olverlay layers. together in a JavaScript widget for displaying spatial data. Layers Behaviors Two classes: Behaviors are 1. Base-Maps such as JavaScript snippets google maps or that make the map other “tiles” interactive in different 2. Overlays that ways or provide map come from views UI functionality. or feeds

  Geometry Stored in WKBFormat Query-able and indexable -- Find all pubs located within 250 meters of a hospital. SELECT h.name, p.name FROM bc_hospitals h, bc_pubs p WHERE ST_DWithin(h.geom, p.geom, 250); -- What is the largest municipality in British Columbia, by area? SELECT name, ST_Area(geom) as areaFROM bc_municipality order by area limit 1; -- What is the total length of all roads in BC, in kilometers? SELECT sum(ST_Length(geom))/1000 as km_roads from bc_roads;

  PostGIS can beused as a spatial-query service in the same way that solr is used as a search-query service. This example show us associating “Location” nodes with “Region” nodes using Geofield, node-references, and SyncPostGIS. Sync PostGIS Entity-save or cron GeoField (Polygon) Spatial Query on entity-save SELECT id from postgis where bundle = ‘region’ AND Entity Type ST_WITHIN($point, geom) Entity ID GeoField (Point) Entity Bundle Node-Reference Field Name Node ID of region Field Delta
