@turf/difference

difference

Finds the difference between two polygons by clipping the second polygon from the first.

Parameters

• polygon1 Feature<(Polygon | MultiPolygon)> input Polygon feature
• polygon2 Feature<(Polygon | MultiPolygon)> Polygon feature to difference from polygon1

Examples

var polygon1 = turf.polygon([[
  [128, -26],
  [141, -26],
  [141, -21],
  [128, -21],
  [128, -26]
]], {
  "fill": "#F00",
  "fill-opacity": 0.1
});
var polygon2 = turf.polygon([[
  [126, -28],
  [140, -28],
  [140, -20],
  [126, -20],
  [126, -28]
]], {
  "fill": "#00F",
  "fill-opacity": 0.1
});

var difference = turf.difference(polygon1, polygon2);

//addToMap
var addToMap = [polygon1, polygon2, difference];

Returns (Feature<(Polygon | MultiPolygon)> | null) a Polygon or MultiPolygon feature showing the area of polygon1 excluding the area of polygon2 (if empty returns null)
