geobuf

Geobuf is a compact binary encoding for geographic data that provides lossless compression of GeoJSON polygons. The Geobuf must be Base64-encoded.

This parameter can contain a Geobuf-encoded GeoJSON geometry object of type PolygonORMultiPolygon. For more information and specific configuration requirements for these object types, see Polygon and MultiPolygon.

The following limitations apply specifically to geometries defined using the Geobuf parameter, and supercede the corresponding limitations of the Polygon and MultiPolygon parameters:

• A Polygon in Geobuf format can have up to 25,000 rings and up to 100,000 total vertices, including all vertices from all component rings.

• A MultiPolygon in Geobuf format can contain up to 10,000 Polygons and up to 100,000 total vertices, including all vertices from all component Polygons.
