Distance and Buffer

[lurajon]

Hi!
Thank you for a great JavaScript library!

I have an issue where the buffer or distance does not align correctly, and I am unsure if it is the turf library or the leaflet geodesic library that causes the problem.

I want to create functionality to draw a "circle" around a point with a given distance, and also draw the distance line.

I have created two points. I buffer the main point with the distance returned by the turf.distance(p1, p2).

The problem is that the distance line and the buffer geometry only connects on the southern and northern points of the "circle" as you can see in this jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/lurajon/u5Ler6na/

Best regards,

Jone

data is WGS84
but map is Mercator projection ,so the Square is rectangle !

This issue is a duplicate of the turf-buffer issue. Basically, this is a known issue that is being worked on. The linked ticket has a temporary drop in copy-paste work around. PRs for geodesic polygon buffering are also welcome, as that is the blocker being worked through at the moment.

Thank you Morgan!

I will look into it.
