This is the main interface for interacting with a Felt map.

This interface is composed of the various controllers, each having a different area of responsibility.

All the methods are listed here, but each controller is documented on its own to make it easier to find related methods and events.

Extends

Properties

iframe

readonly iframe: null | HTMLIFrameElement

The iframe element containing the Felt map, if it is an embedded map.

Methods

getElement()

Changes are only for this session, and not persisted. This is useful to make temporary changes to a layer's style, such as to highlight a particular layer or feature.

Returns

Promise<void>

Example

felt.setLayerFilters({

  filters: ["AREA", "gt", 30_000],
});

getRenderedFeatures()

getRenderedFeatures(params?: GetRenderedFeaturesConstraint): Promise<Feature[]>

Get the features that are currently rendered on the map in the viewport.

Note that this is explicitly about the features that are rendered, which isn't necessarily a complete list of all the features in the viewport. This is because of the way features are tiled: at low zoom levels or high feature densities, many features are omitted from what is rendered on the screen.

Parameters

Parameter Type Description
params? GetRenderedFeaturesConstraint The constraints to apply to the features returned from the map.

Returns

Promise<Feature[]>

Example

const features = await felt.getRenderedFeatures();

getCategoryData()

getCategoryData(params: GetLayerCategoriesParams): Promise<GetLayerCategoriesGroup[]>

Gets values from a layer grouped by a given attribute.

Parameters

Parameter Type
params GetLayerCategoriesParams

Returns

Promise<GetLayerCategoriesGroup[]>

Remarks

Groups features in your layer by unique values in the specified attribute and calculates a value for each group. By default, this value is the count of features in each group.

You can apply filters in two ways:

  1. At the top level (using boundary and filters), which affects both what categories are included and how values are calculated
  2. In the values configuration, which only affects the values but keeps all categories

This two-level filtering is particularly useful when you want to compare subsets of data while maintaining consistent categories. For example, you might want to show the distribution of all building types in a city, but only count buildings built after 2000 in each category.

Example

// Basic grouping: Count of buildings by type
const buildingsByType = await felt.getCategoryData({
  layerId: "buildings",
  attribute: "type"
});

// Filtered grouping: Only count buildings in downtown
const downtownBuildingsByType = await felt.getCategoryData({
  layerId: "buildings",
  attribute: "type",
  boundary: [-122.43, 47.60, -122.33, 47.62]  // downtown boundary
});

// Advanced: Show all building types, but only sum floor area of recent buildings
const recentBuildingAreaByType = await felt.getCategoryData({
  layerId: "buildings",
  attribute: "type",
  values: {
    filters: ["year_built", "gte", 2000],
    aggregation: {
      method: "sum",
      attribute: "floor_area"
    }
  }
});

// Compare residential density across neighborhoods while only counting recent buildings
const newBuildingDensityByNeighborhood = await felt.getCategoryData({
  layerId: "buildings",
  attribute: "neighborhood",
  values: {
    filters: ["year_built", "gte", 2000],
    aggregation: {
      method: "avg",
      attribute: "units_per_acre"
    }
  }
});

getHistogramData()

getHistogramData(params: GetLayerHistogramParams): Promise<GetLayerHistogramBin[]>

Gets a histogram of values from a layer for a given attribute.

Parameters

Parameter Type
params GetLayerHistogramParams

Returns

Promise<GetLayerHistogramBin[]>

Remarks

Creates bins (ranges) for numeric data and counts how many features fall into each bin, or returns aggregated values for each bin.

You can control how the bins are created using the steps parameter, choosing from several methods like equal intervals, quantiles, or natural breaks (Jenks), or passing in the step values directly if you know how you want to bin the data.

Like getCategoryData, you can apply filters in two ways:

  1. At the top level (using boundary and filters), which affects both how the bins are calculated and what features are counted in each bin
  2. In the values configuration, which only affects what gets counted but keeps the bin ranges the same

This is particularly useful when you want to compare distributions while keeping consistent bin ranges. For example, you might want to compare the distribution of building heights in different years while using the same height ranges.

Example

// Basic histogram: Building heights in 5 natural break bins
const buildingHeights = await felt.getHistogramData({
  layerId: "buildings",
  attribute: "height",
  steps: { type: "jenks", count: 5 }
});

// Compare old vs new buildings using the same height ranges
const oldBuildingHeights = await felt.getHistogramData({
  layerId: "buildings",
  attribute: "height",
  steps: [0, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500],
  values: {
    filters: ["year_built", "lt", 1950]
  }
});

const newBuildingHeights = await felt.getHistogramData({
  layerId: "buildings",
  attribute: "height",
  steps: [0, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500],  // Same ranges as above
  values: {
    filters: ["year_built", "gte", 1950]
  }
});

getAggregates()

getAggregates<T>(params: GetLayerCalculationParams<T>): Promise<Record<T, null | number>>

Calculates a single aggregate value for a layer based on the provided configuration.

Type Parameters

Type Parameter
T extends "avg" | "max" | "min" | "sum" | "median" | "count"

Parameters

Parameter Type
params GetLayerCalculationParams<T>

Returns

Promise<Record<T, null | number>>

Remarks

Performs statistical calculations on your data, like counting features or computing averages, sums, etc. You can focus your calculation on specific areas or subsets of your data using boundaries and filters.

When no aggregation is specified, it counts features. When an aggregation is provided, it performs that calculation (average, sum, etc.) on the specified attribute.

Example

// Count all residential buildings
const residentialCount = await felt.getAggregates({
  layerId: "buildings",
  filters: ["type", "eq", "residential"]
});

// Calculate average home value in a specific neighborhood
const avgHomeValue = await felt.getAggregates({
  layerId: "buildings",
  boundary: [-122.43, 47.60, -122.33, 47.62],  // neighborhood boundary
  aggregation: {
    method: "avg",
    attribute: "assessed_value"
  }
});

// Find the maximum building height for buildings built after 2000
const maxNewBuildingHeight = await felt.getAggregates({
  layerId: "buildings",
  filters: ["year_built", "gte", 2000],
  aggregation: {
    method: "max",
    attribute: "height"
  }
});
