@turf/centroid

centroid

Takes one or more features and calculates the centroid using the mean of all vertices. This lessens the effect of small islands and artifacts when calculating the centroid of a set of polygons.

Parameters

• geojson GeoJSON GeoJSON to be centered
• properties [Object] an Object that is used as the Feature's properties

Examples

var polygon = turf.polygon([[[-81, 41], [-88, 36], [-84, 31], [-80, 33], [-77, 39], [-81, 41]]]);

var centroid = turf.centroid(polygon);

//addToMap
var addToMap = [polygon, centroid]

Returns Feature<Point> the centroid of the input features
