# GeoJsonDataSource

#### new Cesium.GeoJsonDataSource(name)
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 517

A `DataSource` which processes both GeoJSON and TopoJSON data. simplestyle-spec properties will also be used if they are present.

Name | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
`name` | String | optional The name of this data source. If undefined, a name will be taken from the name of the GeoJSON file.

##### Example:

    var viewer = new Cesium.Viewer('cesiumContainer');
    viewer.dataSources.add(Cesium.GeoJsonDataSource.load('../../SampleData/ne_10m_us_states.topojson', {
      stroke: Cesium.Color.HOTPINK,
      fill: Cesium.Color.PINK,
      strokeWidth: 3,
      markerSymbol: '?'
    }));

### Members

#### static Cesium.GeoJsonDataSource.clampToGround : Boolean
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 649

Gets or sets default of whether to clamp to the ground.

Default Value: `false`

#### static Cesium.GeoJsonDataSource.crsLinkHrefs : Object
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 681

Gets an object that maps the href property of a crs link to a callback function which takes the crs properties object and returns a Promise that resolves to a function that takes a GeoJSON coordinate and transforms it into a WGS84 Earth-fixed Cartesian. Items in this object take precedence over those defined in `crsLinkHrefs`, assuming the link has a type specified.

#### static Cesium.GeoJsonDataSource.crsLinkTypes : Object
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 695

Gets an object that maps the type property of a crs link to a callback function which takes the crs properties object and returns a Promise that resolves to a function that takes a GeoJSON coordinate and transforms it into a WGS84 Earth-fixed Cartesian. Items in `crsLinkHrefs` take precedence over this object.

#### static Cesium.GeoJsonDataSource.crsNames : Object
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 666

Gets an object that maps the name of a crs to a callback function which takes a GeoJSON coordinate and transforms it into a WGS84 Earth-fixed Cartesian. Older versions of GeoJSON which supported the EPSG type can be added to this list as well, by specifying the complete EPSG name, for example 'EPSG:4326'.

#### static Cesium.GeoJsonDataSource.fill : Color
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 635

Gets or sets default color for polygon interiors.

Default Value: `Color.YELLOW`

#### static Cesium.GeoJsonDataSource.markerColor : Color
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 579

Gets or sets the default color of the map pin created for each point.

Default Value: `Color.ROYALBLUE`

#### static Cesium.GeoJsonDataSource.markerSize : Number
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 550

Gets or sets the default size of the map pin created for each point, in pixels.

Default Value: `48`

#### static Cesium.GeoJsonDataSource.markerSymbol : String
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 565

Gets or sets the default symbol of the map pin created for each point. This can be any valid Maki identifier, any single character, or blank if no symbol is to be used.

#### static Cesium.GeoJsonDataSource.outline : Boolean
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 593

Gets or sets the Property specifying whether the polygon is outlined.

Gets or sets the default width of polylines and polygon outlines.

Default Value: `2.0`

#### changedEvent : Event
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 753

Gets an event that will be raised when the underlying data changes.

#### clock : DataSourceClock
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 724

This DataSource only defines static data, therefore this property is always undefined.

#### clustering : EntityCluster
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 798

Gets or sets the clustering options for this data source. This object can be shared between multiple data sources.

#### credit : Credit
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 816

#### entities : EntityCollection
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 733

Gets the collection of `Entity` instances.

#### errorEvent : Event
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 763

Gets an event that will be raised if an error is encountered during processing.

#### isLoading : Boolean
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 743

Gets a value indicating if the data source is currently loading data.

#### loadingEvent : Event
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 773

Gets an event that will be raised when the data source either starts or stops loading.

#### name : String
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 708

Gets or sets a human-readable name for this instance.

#### show : Boolean
DataSources/GeoJsonDataSource.js 783

Gets whether or not this data source should be displayed.

### Methods
