options are included.
Option | Type | Default | Description

L.TimeDimension.Layer
TimeDimension.Layer is an abstract Layer that can be managed/synchronized with a TimeDimension. The constructor recieves a layer (of any kind) and options.
Any children class should implement _onNewTimeLoading
, isReady
and _update
functions to react to time changes.

L.TimeDimension.Layer.GeoJSON
Manages a GeoJSON layer with a TimeDimension. According to GeoJSON specification, geometry coordinates can have only three dimensions: latitude, longitude and elevation. There isn't a standard way to add time dimension information. This plugin will search for some attributes inside properties:
coordTimes
,times
orlinestringTimestamps
: array of times that can be associated with a geometry (datestrings or ms). In the case of a LineString, it must have as many items as coordinates in the LineString. (Note:coordTimes
is the name of the property recently included at Mapbox toGeoJSON library)time
: time of the feature
This component will create and show new GeoJSON layers which include only those features (or part of them) that are active for the time of the TimeDimension (according to a duration option). These new layers will inherit the baseLayer options. In the case of LineStrings, if addlastPoint
option is enabled, a Point feature will be added with the property last
(that can be used to customize the marker of this special Point).
Usage example
L.timeDimension.layer.geoJson(layer).addTo(map);

addlastPoint
| Boolean
| false
| Add a Point at the last valid coordinate of a LineString.
waitForReady
| Boolean
| false
| If true
, it will wait until the baseLayer is loaded to mark itself as ready. You can use it with layers created using leaflet-omnivore.
updateTimeDimension
| Boolean
| false
| Update the list of available times of the attached TimeDimension with the available times of this GeoJSON

and extreme values of the set.
