These functions allow you to add vector features (points, lines, and areas) to vector layers, as well as generate entirely new vector, raster, and elevation grid layers. Additionally, functions that allow you to combine areas and create buffer zones can be utilized to enhance feature geometry.
Create a Floorplan with Area Features
Note
Before running this sample, configure these variables:
export_dir: the directory for resulting files to be exported to
This sample demonstrates how to create area features and add them to a custom vector layer to generate a simple floorplan. Area features are generated based on 4 coordinate-pairs that represent the 4 corners of a room. Once the area feature has been created, it is then added to a custom vector layer. This proccess repeats until all rooms in the floorplan have been placed. The floorplan is then exported as a jpg.

Create a Floorplan with Line Features
Note

This sample demonstrates how to create line features and add them to a custom vector layer to generate a simple floorplan. The line features are generated based on coordinate-pairs that represent the two endpoints of a line. Once the line feature has been created, it is then added to a custom vector layer. This proccess repeats until all rooms/walls in the floorplan have been placed. The floorplan is then exported as a jpg.
