Overview
probematch is a small JavaScript module that matches a single GPS measurement, called a probe, or a sequence of them, called a trace, to a road network. It builds a flatbush spatial index of the roads so lookups are quick. Matching uses configurable distance and bearing filters, and roads are given as a GeoJSON FeatureCollection of LineStrings. Install it from npm as @mapbox/probematch.
Key features
- Matches single GPS probes or whole traces to roads
- Builds a flatbush index for quick matching
- Configurable bearing and distance filters
- Takes roads as GeoJSON LineString features
Best for
JavaScript developers who need lightweight matching of GPS points to a road network, using GeoJSON data.
