LayerDataType

LayerDataType = "GEOJSON" | "ARROW" | "Unknown"

Supported data formats for dataset responses and processing.

Remarks​

Format selection affects parsing, performance, and feature availability:

  • 'GEOJSON': RFC 7946 compliant JSON format, universally supported, human-readable
  • 'ARROW': Apache Arrow columnar format, high performance, efficient memory usage
  • 'Unknown': Format detection pending, error state, or unsupported formats

Future​

Planned additions: JSON, GEOARROW, PARQUET, GEOPARQUET

Example​

const geoJsonType: LayerDataType = 'GEOJSON';
const arrowType: LayerDataType = 'ARROW';
