This repository provides tools for building JSON Schema docs for GeoJSON. A schema is generated for each of the GeoJSON object types, and each individual doc is complete (without $refs to other documents). So applications can consume just what they need and avoid extra fetching.
See JSON Schema docs for the GeoJSON types below:
FeatureCollectionFeatureGeometryGeometryCollectionMultiPolygonMultiLineStringMultiPointPolygonLineStringPoint
The overall GeoJSON schema can be found at
The schema can not be used to validate that linear rings are closed or that they follow the right-hand rule. These two elements of the GeoJSON specification cannot be represented in JSON Schema. To enforce these two elements of linear ring validation, parsers must implement their own logic on top of JSON Schema validation.
Install dependencies:
npm install
To build the schema docs:
make
The output will be in the build directory.
A CI job builds commits pushed to main. After a successful build, artifacts are pushed to the gh-pages branch and will be accessible at geojson.org/schema/.json (e.g. http://geojson.org/schema/Point.json).
