JavaScript/jQuery VectorMap - projection
Specifies the map projection.
You can use one of the following out-of-the-box projections:
- Mercator projection
- Equirectangular projection
- Lambert cylindrical projection
- Miller cylindrical projection
To set a custom projection, implement two functions (from and to) that convert coordinates from geographical to UI component coordinate systems. The to callback is executed to render initial data in VectorMap. The from callback is called when a user executes the pan or move action. The from and to callbacks should have the same ratio:
const projection = { from: ([x, y]) => [x * A, y * B], to: ([lon, lat]) => [lon / A, lat / B], };
In addition, specify the projection's aspectRatio.
aspectRatio
Specifies the projection's ratio of the width to the height.
Extreme points of the UI component coordinate system form a square. Set this property to change the projection's form; for example, make the width more than height.
from
Converts coordinates from [x, y] to [lon, lat].
to
Converts coordinates from [lon, lat] to [x, y].
Two coordinates that represent a point in the dataSource coordinate system.
