A Leaflet plugin that allows to add elevation profiles using d3js

For a working example see one of the following demos:

How to use

include CSS & JavaScript

<head>
...
<style> html, body, #map, #elevation-div { height: 100%; width: 100%; padding: 0; margin: 0; } #map { height: 75%; } #elevation-div {	height: 25%; font: 12px/1.5 "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } </style>

<!-- leaflet-ui -->
<script src="https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/dist/leaflet.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/dist/leaflet-ui.js"></script>

<!-- leaflet-elevation -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unpkg.com/@raruto/leaflet-elevation/dist/leaflet-elevation.css" />
<script src="https://unpkg.com/@raruto/leaflet-elevation/dist/leaflet-elevation.js"></script>
...
</head>

choose the div container used for the slippy map
```
<body>
...
<div id="map"></div>
...
</body>
```

create your first simple “leaflet-elevation” slippy map

<script>
  // Full list options at "leaflet-elevation.js"
  var elevation_options = {

    // Default chart colors: theme lime-theme, magenta-theme, ...
    theme: "lightblue-theme",

Build Guide

Within your local development environment:

git clone [email protected]:Raruto/leaflet-elevation.git
cd ./leaflet-elevation

npm i         # install dependencies
npm run dev   # start dev server at: http://localhost:8080
npm run build # generate "dist" files (once)
npm run test  # test all "*.spec.js" files (once)

After that you can start developing inside the src and test folders (eg. open "http://localhost:8080/test" in your browser to preview changes). Check also CONTRIBUTING.md file for some information about it.

FAQ

There are multiple options to achieve this:

You could either use some default presets (see: theme: "lightblue-theme" option in readme file and the following file leaflet-elevation.css for some other default "*-theme" names).
check out this example
Or add the following lines for custom colors.

.elevation-control .area {
    fill: red;
}
.elevation-control .background {
    background-color: white;

These customizations are actually part of the leaflet-ui and can be toggled on/off using e.g. the following options:

var map = L.map('map', {
    center: [41.4583, 12.7059],  // needs value to initialize
    zoom: 5,                     // needs value to initialize
    mapTypeId: 'topo',
    mapTypeIds: ['osm', 'terrain', 'satellite', 'topo'],
    gestureHandling: false,     // zoom with Cmd + Scroll
    zoomControl: true,          // plus minus buttons
    pegmanControl: false,
    locateControl: false,
    fullscreenControl: true,
    layersControl: true,
    minimapControl: false,
    editInOSMControl: false,
    loadingControl: false,
    searchControl: false,
    disableDefaultUI: false,
    printControl: false,
});

Usually, when working with a js bundler like Vite or Webpack, you need to provide to this library the full path to some dynamically imported files from the srcFolder:

import './your-custom-style.css';
import 'leaflet/dist/leaflet.css';
import L from 'leaflet';
import '@raruto/leaflet-elevation/src/index.js';
import '@raruto/leaflet-elevation/src/index.css';

const map = L.map('map', {
    center: [41.4583, 12.7059]
    zoom: 5,
});

const controlElevation = L.control.elevation({
    // CHANGE ME: with your own http server folder (eg. "http://custom-server/public/path/to/leaflet-elevation/src/")
    srcFolder: 'http://unpkg.com/@raruto/leaflet-elevation/src/'
}).addTo(map);

// Load track from url (allowed data types: "*.geojson", "*.gpx", "*.tcx")
controlElevation.load("https://raruto.github.io/leaflet-elevation/examples/via-emilia.gpx");
