Class: KML

ol/format/KML~KML 


import KML from 'ol/format/KML.js';

Feature format for reading and writing data in the KML format.

readFeature will read the first feature from a KML source.

MultiGeometries are converted into GeometryCollections if they are a mix of geometry types, and into MultiPoint/MultiLineString/MultiPolygon if they are all of the same type.

new KML(options)

format/KML.js, line 424
Name Type Description
extractStyles boolean (defaults to true)

Extract styles from the KML.
showPointNames boolean (defaults to true)

Show names as labels for placemarks which contain points.
defaultStyle Array<Style> | undefined

Default style. The default default style is the same as Google Earth.
writeStyles boolean (defaults to true)

Write styles into KML.
crossOrigin null | string (defaults to 'anonymous')

The crossOrigin attribute for loaded images. Note that you must provide a crossOrigin value if you want to access pixel data with the Canvas renderer.
iconUrlFunction IconUrlFunction | undefined

Function that takes a url string and returns a url string. Might be used to change an icon path or to substitute a data url obtained from a KMZ array buffer.

Methods

readFeature(source, options){Feature} inherited

format/XMLFeature.js, line 43

Read a single feature.

Name Type Description
source Document | Element | Object | string

Source.
options

Read options.

Name Type Description
dataProjection ProjectionLike | undefined

Projection of the data we are reading. If not provided, the projection will be derived from the data (where possible) or the dataProjection of the format is assigned (where set). If the projection can not be derived from the data and if no dataProjection is set for a format, the features will not be reprojected.
extent Extent | undefined

Tile extent in map units of the tile being read. This is only required when reading data with tile pixels as geometry units. When configured, a dataProjection with TILE_PIXELS as units and the tile's pixel extent as extent needs to be provided.
featureProjection ProjectionLike | undefined

Projection of the feature geometries created by the format reader. If not provided, features will be returned in the dataProjection.
Returns:
Feature.

readFeatures(source, options){Array<Feature>} inherited

format/XMLFeature.js, line 88

Read all features from a feature collection.

Name Type Description
source Document | Element | Object | string

Source.
options

Options.

Name Type Description
dataProjection ProjectionLike | undefined

Projection of the data we are reading. If not provided, the projection will be derived from the data (where possible) or the dataProjection of the format is assigned (where set). If the projection can not be derived from the data and if no dataProjection is set for a format, the features will not be reprojected.
extent Extent | undefined

Tile extent in map units of the tile being read. This is only required when reading data with tile pixels as geometry units. When configured, a dataProjection with TILE_PIXELS as units and the tile's pixel extent as extent needs to be provided.
featureProjection ProjectionLike | undefined

Projection of the feature geometries created by the format reader. If not provided, features will be returned in the dataProjection.
Returns:
Features.

readName(source){string | undefined}

format/KML.js, line 690

Read the name of the KML.

Name Type Description
source Document | Element | string

Source.
Returns:
Name.

readNetworkLinks(source){Array.<Object>}

format/KML.js, line 753

Read the network links of the KML.

Name Type Description
source Document | Element | string

Source.
Returns:
Network links.

readProjection(source){Projection} inherited

format/XMLFeature.js, line 183

Read the projection from the source.

Name Type Description
source Document | Element | Object | string

Source.
Returns:
Projection.

readRegion(source){Array.<Object>}

format/KML.js, line 823

Read the regions of the KML.

Name Type Description
source Document | Element | string

Source.
Returns:
Regions.

readRegionFromNode(node){Array.<Object>}

format/KML.js, line 858
Name Type Description
node Element

Node.
Returns:
Region.

writeFeatures(features, options){string} inherited

format/XMLFeature.js, line 243

Encode an array of features as string.

Name Type Description
features Array<Feature>

Features.
options

Write options.

Name Type Description
dataProjection ProjectionLike | undefined

Projection of the data we are writing. If not provided, the dataProjection of the format is assigned (where set). If no dataProjection is set for a format, the features will be returned in the featureProjection.
featureProjection ProjectionLike | undefined

Projection of the feature geometries that will be serialized by the format writer. If not provided, geometries are assumed to be in the dataProjection if that is set; in other words, they are not transformed.
rightHanded boolean | undefined

When writing geometries, follow the right-hand rule for linear ring orientation. This means that polygons will have counter-clockwise exterior rings and clockwise interior rings. By default, coordinates are serialized as they are provided at construction. If true, the right-hand rule will be applied. If false, the left-hand rule will be applied (clockwise for exterior and counter-clockwise for interior rings). Note that not all formats support this. The GeoJSON format does use this property when writing geometries.
decimals number | undefined

Maximum number of decimal places for coordinates. Coordinates are stored internally as floats, but floating-point arithmetic can create coordinates with a large number of decimal places, not generally wanted on output. Set a number here to round coordinates. Can also be used to ensure that coordinates read in can be written back out with the same number of decimals. Default is no rounding.
Returns:
Result.

writeFeaturesNode(features, options){Node}

format/KML.js, line 887

Encode an array of features in the KML format as an XML node. GeometryCollections, MultiPoints, MultiLineStrings, and MultiPolygons are output as MultiGeometries.

Name Type Description
features Array<Feature>

Features.
options

Options.

Name Type Description
dataProjection ProjectionLike | undefined

Projection of the data we are writing. If not provided, the dataProjection of the format is assigned (where set). If no dataProjection is set for a format, the features will be returned in the featureProjection.
