Components that given the specifications in the input generate new sets of spatial data; those being points, line, polygons and even tilesets.
Description
This component creates a new table containing a 'geom' column and a single row containing a geography that represents a bounding box as defined by the input min/max values.
Inputs
Minimum X [Number]
Minimum Y [Number]
Maximum X [Number]
Maximum Y [Number]
Outputs
Result table [Table]
Description
This component creates a new table containing the geographies of the input table clipped to the combined boundary of the geographies in another table. Geographies in this second table must be of type polygon.
Inputs
Table to clip [Table]
Polygons table [Table]
Geo column in table to clip [Column]
Geo column in polygons table [Column]
Outputs
Result table [Table]
Description
This component creates a new table containing points distributed in a regular grid, according to a given interval. Point geographies are stored in a column named 'geo'. The extent to cover is defined by an ancillary table with geographies.
Inputs
Reference table (used for extent) [Table]
Geo column [Column]
Interval (degrees) [Number]
Outputs
Result table [Table]
Description
This component computes isolines.
Inputs
Source table
Settings
Geo column: select a column that contains points that will be the origin point of the isoline.
Mode: Select a mode of transport for the isoline calculation.
Type of range: Select between time or distance for the isoline calculation.
Range value (seconds/meters): Input a numeric value that represent seconds if time was selected or meters if distance was selected.
Provider-specific settings:
TravelTime:
Departure time: Take into account historical traffic conditions to generate the isoline. Accepted values are now or a timestamp in this format: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss, for example: 2024-01-31T09:30:00
Single shape (default true): Force the resulting isoline to be a single polygon.
TomTom
Departure time: Accepted values are any, now or a timestamp in this format: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss, for example: 2024-01-31T09:30:00
Use traffic information if available: Check this option to take into account historical traffic conditions to generate the isoline.
HERE
Arrival Time: any, now or timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss). Not compatible with Departure Time
Departure Time: any, now or timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss). Not compatible with Arrival time
Optimize for: balanced (default), quality, performance.
Routing mode: fast (default), short
Origin radius (m): Consider any position in the radius of the origin point as origin.
Advanced Options:
Isoline Options: A JSON object that can contain other provider specific options, for example: {"option1":"value", "option2": 123}. Check each provider documentation for a complete reference of available options in the External links section below.
Outputs
Result table: The component generates a table that contains the following columns:
All columns from input table.
An orig_geom column that contains the original point geometry in the selected geo column.
A geom column that contains the generated isoline.
A carto_isoline_metadata column that can contain additional information. Usually details if the isoline failed for some reason. In most scenarios it will be null if the isoline was generated correctly.

Description
This component creates a new table containing a single row with a single point geography. The point is stored in a column named 'geo'.
Inputs
Longitude [Number]
Latitude [Number]
Outputs
Result table [Table]
Description
This component generates a new geo column with polygons without holes.
Inputs
Source polygons table [Table]
Geo column [Column]
Outputs
Result table [Table]
Description
This component performs high-level spatial object editing from a simple, single component. You can combine multiple objects or cut the spatial objects of the input table.
With this component you can combine objects, cut 1st from 2nd, cut 2nd from 1st, create the intersection object or create the inverse intersection object. Define the action that you want to do using the “Action” field.
Inputs
source table [Table]
1st Spatial Field [Column]
2nd Spatial Field [Column]
Action [Selection]
Outputs
Result table [Table]
Description
This component adds a new column with the boundary of the input geography.
Inputs
Source table [Table]
Geo column [Column]
Result table [Table]:
