Name

AsTopoJSON — Returns the TopoJSON representation of a topogeometry.

Synopsis

text +`*`+AsTopoJSON*(`topogeometry `tg, regclass edgeMapTable`)`;

Description

Returns the TopoJSON representation of a topogeometry. If edgeMapTable is not null, it will be used as a lookup/storage mapping of edge identifiers to arc indices. This is to be able to allow for a compact "arcs" array in the final document.

The table, if given, is expected to have an "arc_id" field of type "serial" and an "edge_id" of type integer; the code will query the table for "edge_id" so it is recommended to add an index on that field.

Note

Arc indices in the TopoJSON output are 0-based but they are 1-based in the "edgeMapTable" table.

A full TopoJSON document will be need to contain, in addition to the snippets returned by this function, the actual arcs plus some headers. See the TopoJSON specification.

Availability: 2.1.0

Enhanced: 2.2.1 added support for puntal inputs
