GeofenceGeometry
Contains the geofence geometry details.
A geofence geometry is made up of either a polygon or a circle. Can be a polygon, a circle or a polygon encoded in Geobuf format. Including multiple selections will return a validation error.
Note
Amazon Location doesn't currently support polygons with holes, multipolygons, polygons that are wound clockwise, or that cross the antimeridian.
Contents
- Circle
-
A circle on the earth, as defined by a center point and a radius.
Type: Circle object
Required: No
- Geobuf
-
Geobuf is a compact binary encoding for geographic data that provides lossless compression of GeoJSON polygons. The Geobuf must be Base64-encoded.
A polygon in Geobuf format can have up to 100,000 vertices.
Type: Base64-encoded binary data object
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 0. Maximum length of 700000.
Required: No
- Polygon
-
A polygon is a list of linear rings which are each made up of a list of vertices.
Each vertex is a 2-dimensional point of the form:
[longitude, latitude]. This is represented as an array of doubles of length 2 (so[double, double]).An array of 4 or more vertices, where the first and last vertex are the same (to form a closed boundary), is called a linear ring. The linear ring vertices must be listed in counter-clockwise order around the ring’s interior. The linear ring is represented as an array of vertices, or an array of arrays of doubles (
[[double, double], ...]).A geofence consists of a single linear ring. To allow for future expansion, the Polygon parameter takes an array of linear rings, which is represented as an array of arrays of arrays of doubles (
[[[double, double], ...], ...]).A linear ring for use in geofences can consist of between 4 and 1,000 vertices.
Type: Array of arrays of arrays of doubles
Array Members: Minimum number of 1 item.
Array Members: Minimum number of 4 items.
Array Members: Fixed number of 2 items.
Required: No
