boundaryQuerySource
You can use boundaryQuerySource to build layers and widgets using a combination of:
Properties: A custom SQL query to your data warehouse that returns points.
Boundaries: A pre-generated tileset in your data warehouse that contains the polygon boundaries that will be used to aggregate the properties.
Learn more about building highly-performant large-scale boundaries visualization in our using Boundaries guide for developers.
Usage
Options
tilesetTableName: The fully qualified name (FQN) of the table that will contain the polygon-based boundaries in your visualization. For example, for a BigQuery connection,
carto-data.my_tilesets.zipcodes_boundaries
would be a valid boundaries table name.propertiesSqlQuery: A custom SQL query that returns the point-based properties in your visualization. You should use valid syntax for your data warehouse, which allows you to use all kinds of advanced processing directly in the data source. For example, for a BigQuery connection,
SELECT * FROM carto-demo-data.demo_tables.chicago_crime_sample LIMIT 100
would be a valid SQL query.columns (optional): The list of columns to retrieve from the table specified in
propertiesSqlQuery
. Useful to increase performance and optimize query costs in queries with a large number of columns. By default, all columns will be retrieved.filters (optional): A valid CARTO Filters object, used to perform server-side filtering of this data source with column-based filters.
filtersLogicalOperator (optional): Indicates whether
filters
are applied following anAND
logic or anOR
logic.queryParameters (optional): If your
sqlQuery
contains query parameters, pass the values for each parameter in this field, following your data warehouse mechanism for query parameters, like named or positional parameters.
Response
The response of boundaryQuerySource
is a promise that can be resolved and used in layers.
Connection compatibility
Layer compatibility
boundaryQuerySource
is compatible with the following layers from the @deck.gl/carto
module:
Widget model compatibility
boundaryQuerySource
is not compatible with widgets.
A recommended workaround is to use a vectorQuerySource using the same properties, attached to the widgets. The same filters can then be attached to both your vector source and your boundary source.
