## standardDeviationalEllipse
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Takes a collection of features and returns a standard deviational ellipse,
|
|||
|
|
also known as a “directional distribution.” The standard deviational ellipse
|
|||
|
|
aims to show the direction and the distribution of a dataset by drawing
|
|||
|
|
an ellipse that contains about one standard deviation’s worth (\~ 70%) of the
|
|||
|
|
data.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This module mirrors the functionality of [Directional Distribution][1]
|
|||
|
|
in ArcGIS and the [QGIS Standard Deviational Ellipse Plugin][2]

### Parameters
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* `points` **[FeatureCollection][5]<[Point][6]>** GeoJSON points
|
|||
|
|
* `options` **[Object][7]** Optional parameters (optional, default `{}`)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* `options.weight` **[string][8]?** the property name used to weight the center
|
|||
|
|
* `options.steps` **[number][9]** number of steps for the polygon (optional, default `64`)
|
|||
|
|
* `options.properties` **[Object][7]** properties to pass to the resulting ellipse (optional, default `{}`)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Examples
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
|
const bbox = [-74, 40.72, -73.98, 40.74];
|
|||
|
|
const points = turf.randomPoint(400, {bbox: bbox});
|
|||
|
|
const sdEllipse = turf.standardDeviationalEllipse(points);
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
//addToMap
|
|||
|
|
const addToMap = [points, sdEllipse];
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Returns **[Feature][10]<[Polygon][11]>** an elliptical Polygon that includes approximately 1 SD of the dataset within it.
