I have a basic map with openlayers 6.8. I display markers from geojson.
Example of a geojson :
const geoMoscow = new ol.layer.Vector({
source: new ol.source.Vector({
url: './assets/moscow.geojson',
format: new ol.format.GeoJSON()
}),
visible: true,
title: 'geojson',
style: new ol.style.Style({
fill: fillStyle,
stroke: strokeStyle,
image: new ol.style.Circle({
fill: new ol.style.Fill({
color: [245, 49, 5, 1]
}),
radius: 10,
}),
})
})
I want to get this geojson coordinates for further use. I have been reading many code examples that uses geojson.getSource().getFeatures() that allows to acces the getCoordinates() method from each feature.
Unfortunetly geoMoscow.getSource().getFeatures() gives an empty array.
I am obviously missing something there about openlayers logic. It seems totally doable because my geojson contains a feature object with the coordinates in it but I am unable to access it.
TLDR : How to access informations like coordinates from this geojson Vector.
You must wait until the source is loaded and parsed
geoMoscow.getSource().on('featuresloadend', function(){
console.log(geoMoscow.getSource().getFeatures());
});
The source will not load until it is added to a map.
