A data adapter that loads data from GeoJSON files, and displays it on vector layers.

Assembly : DevExpress.Xpf.Map.v25.2.dll

Declaration

C#
VB.NET

csharp

public class GeoJsonFileDataAdapter :
    MapGeoDataAdapter

Public Class GeoJsonFileDataAdapter
    Inherits MapGeoDataAdapter

Remarks

The Map Control allows you to display data from GeoJSON files that store geographical objects in the JSON format.

The following table lists supported GeoJSON elements and corresponding map items:

GeoJSON element

Map item

| | --- | --- | |

Point

MapDot

| |

MultiPoint

A list of MapDot objects

| |

LineString

MapPolyline

| |

MultiLineString

MapPath

| |

Polygon, MultiPolygon

MapPath

| |

GeometryCollection

MapDot, MapPolyline, MapPath

Follow the steps below to load data from a .GeoJSON file:

Add a VectorLayer object to the MapControl.Layers collection.
Create a GeoJsonFileDataAdapter object.
Specify the path to a GeoJSON file via the MapGeoDataAdapter.FileUri property.
Assign the GeoJsonFileDataAdapter to the VectorLayer.Data property.
Optionally, you can customize generated items in the MapGeoDataAdapter.ShapesLoaded event handler.
