The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119.
This specification attempts to create a standard for styling geospatial data that can be shared across clients.
simplestyle is a set of agreed-upon 'special values' in
the pre-existing GeoJSON data standard that
define styles. As such, files implementing simplestyle are by
definition valid GeoJSON files and valid JSON files.
The entirety of the simplestyle spec is optional, so any combination of
specified properties are valid. When properties are not given, the defaults
below are assumed by implementations.
Multi features are assumed to have the same styling rules as single features---
MultiPoints are styled as Points, MultiPolygons as Polygons, and MultiLineStrings
as LineStrings. marker styles do not affect stroke and fill rules and vice versa.
The behavior of fill rules on LineStrings is undefined, but implementations
are encouraged to set fill to 0 by default in that case.
// COLOR RULES
// Colors can be in short form:
// "#ace"
// or long form
// "#aaccee"
// with or without the # prefix.
// Colors are interpreted the same as in CSS,
// in #RRGGBB and #RGB order.
// But other color formats or named colors
// are not supported
