Layers

Contents

A style’s layers property lists all the layers available in that style. The type of layer is specified by the "type" property, and must be one of background, fill, line, symbol, raster, circle, fill-extrusion, heatmap.

Except for layers of the background type, each layer needs to refer to a source. Layers take the data that they get from a source, optionally filter features, and then define how those features are styled.

"layers": [
  {
    "id": "water",
    "source": "water-source",
    "source-layer": "water",
    "type": "fill",
    "paint": {
      "fill-color": "#00ffff"
    }
  }
]

Layout and Paint Properties

Layers have two sub-properties that determine how data from that layer is rendered: layout and paint properties.

Layout properties appear in the layer’s "layout" object. They are applied early in the rendering process and define how data for that layer is passed to the GPU. Changes to a layout property require an asynchronous “layout” step.

Paint properties are applied later in the rendering process. Paint properties appear in the layer’s "paint" object. Changes to a paint property are cheap and happen synchronously.

The geometry’s offset. Values are [x, y] where negatives indicate left and up (on the flat plane), respectively.

fill-extrusion-translate-anchor

Paint property. Optional enum. One of "map", "viewport". Defaults to "map". Requires fill-extrusion-translate.

Controls the frame of reference for fill-extrusion-translate.

"map": The fill extrusion is translated relative to the map.

"viewport": The fill extrusion is translated relative to the viewport.

visibility

Layout property. Optional enum. One of "visible", "none". Defaults to "visible".

Whether this layer is displayed.

"visible": The layer is shown.

"none": The layer is not shown.

heatmap

heatmap-color

Paint property. Optional color. Defaults to ["interpolate",["linear"],["heatmap-density"],0,"rgba(0, 0, 255, 0)",0.1,"royalblue",0.3,"cyan",0.5,"lime",0.7,"yellow",1,"red"]. Supports interpolate expressions.

Defines the color of each pixel based on its density value in a heatmap. Should be an expression that uses ["heatmap-density"] as input.

heatmap-intensity

Paint property. Optional number greater than or equal to 0. Defaults to 1. Supports interpolate expressions. Transitionable.

Similar to heatmap-weight but controls the intensity of the heatmap globally. Primarily used for adjusting the heatmap based on zoom level.

heatmap-opacity

Paint property. Optional number between 0 and 1 inclusive. Defaults to 1. Supports interpolate expressions. Transitionable.

The global opacity at which the heatmap layer will be drawn.

heatmap-radius

Paint property. Optional number greater than or equal to 1. Units in pixels. Defaults to 30. Supports feature-state and interpolate expressions. Transitionable.

Radius of influence of one heatmap point in pixels. Increasing the value makes the heatmap smoother, but less detailed.

heatmap-weight

Paint property. Optional number greater than or equal to 0. Defaults to 1. Supports feature-state and interpolate expressions.

A measure of how much an individual point contributes to the heatmap. A value of 10 would be equivalent to having 10 points of weight 1 in the same spot. Especially useful when combined with clustering.

visibility

Layout property. Optional enum. One of "visible", "none". Defaults to "visible".

Whether this layer is displayed.

"visible": The layer is shown.

"none": The layer is not shown.
