Track Pixel Coordinates in Leaflet - leaflet

I am trying to build a Vt of 360 degree panopictures with OSM map using Leaflet.
I need a function which returns the pixel coordinates of a point/marker relative to the origin pixel (to the top left corner of the map container) when moving (i.e panning/dragging) the map and when zooming the map.
Any suggestions/hints?

From the Leaflet API:
// #method containerPointToLayerPoint(point: Point): Point
// Given a pixel coordinate relative to the map container, returns the corresponding
// pixel coordinate relative to the [origin pixel](#map-getpixelorigin).
containerPointToLayerPoint: function (point) {
return toPoint(point).subtract(this._getMapPanePos());
},
Is this what you are looking for?

Zoom to a set of coordinates in react-simple-maps

I have the set of the following coordinates:
const coordinates = [
[-68.1193, -16.4897],
[-47.8825, -15.7942]
]
I would like to set the zoom level on the map so that both of these points are showing in the map (taking into account the dimensions of the container the map is rendered into). Is there a native way of doing it with react-simple-maps or do I need to do it manually using scale and center values in projectionConfig?

Converting from WGS84 to EPSG:27700 raster tiles without drawing a map

Using this example from OS Data Hub - https://labs.os.uk/public/os-data-hub-examples/os-maps-api/zxy-27700-basic-map
I can get a list of tiles displayed on the map, I would like to get the coordinates of the tile without drawing the map.
Starting from a single point in WGS84 (lat/long) I can convert this to EPSG:27700 using Proj4js
var source = new proj4.Proj('EPSG:4326');
proj4.defs("EPSG:27700","+proj=tmerc +lat_0=49 +lon_0=-2 +k=0.9996012717 +x_0=400000 +y_0=-100000 +ellps=airy +datum=OSGB36 +units=m +no_defs");
var dest = new proj4.Proj('EPSG:27700');
var coords=proj4.transform(source, dest, [X,Y]);
I then need to translate this into coordinates for the raster tile, which is done in the leaflet example with this code:
var crs = new L.Proj.CRS('EPSG:27700', '+proj=tmerc +lat_0=49 +lon_0=-2 +k=0.9996012717 +x_0=400000 +y_0=-100000 +ellps=airy +towgs84=446.448,-125.157,542.06,0.15,0.247,0.842,-20.489 +units=m +no_defs', {
resolutions: [ 896.0, 448.0, 224.0, 112.0, 56.0, 28.0, 14.0, 7.0, 3.5, 1.75 ],
origin: [ -238375.0, 1376256.0 ]
});
How can i replicate this step to produce the tile coordinates, without having to draw the leaflet map?
I ultimately want to use the coordinates to grab & save a single tile from the OS Data Hub with this format:
https://api.os.uk/maps/raster/v1/zxy/layer/%7Bz%7D/%7Bx%7D/%7By%7D.png?key=
Using the EPSG:27700 coords calculated using proj4, and the zoom level resolutions (which are meters per pixel) and tile grid origin coordinates used in the definition you can calculate the {x} and {y} values in https://api.os.uk/maps/raster/v1/zxy/layer/{z}/{x}/{y}.png?key= for any zoom level {z} based on the standard tile size of 256 pixels as
x = Math.floor((coords[0] - origin[0]) / (resolutions[z] * 256));
y = Math.floor((origin[1] - coords[1]) / (resolutions[z] * 256));

How to set correct image dimensions by LatLngBounds using ImageOverlay?

I want to use ImageOverlays as markers, because I want the images to scale with zoom. Markers icons always resize to keep their size the same when you zoom.
My problem is that I can't figure out how to transform pixels to cords, so my image isn't stretched.
For instance, I decided my south-west LatLng to be [50, 50]. My image dimensions are 24px/24px.
How do I calculate the north-east LatLng based on the image pixels?
You are probably looking for map conversion methods.
In particular, you could use:
latLngToContainerPoint: Given a geographical coordinate, returns the corresponding pixel coordinate relative to the map container.
containerPointToLatLng: Given a pixel coordinate relative to the map container, returns the corresponding geographical coordinate (for the current zoom level).
// 1) Convert LatLng into container pixel position.
var originPoint = map.latLngToContainerPoint(originLatLng);
// 2) Add the image pixel dimensions.
// Positive x to go right (East).
// Negative y to go up (North).
var nextCornerPoint = originPoint.add({x: 24, y: -24});
// 3) Convert back into LatLng.
var nextCornerLatLng = map.containerPointToLatLng(nextCornerPoint);
var imageOverlay = L.imageOverlay(
'path/to/image',
[originLatLng, nextCornerLatLng]
).addTo(map);

Mapbox Icons/Markers "BearingSnap" or Snap to Position

Is there a way to move icons/markers to a certain location where it will then "snap" to the location?
For example, chess games on the computer where when you move a chess piece to the correct square, it will snap to that position when you let go of the piece near/around the square.
So what I want is to move a marker or an icon to a certain location, let's say the capital of California, and the marker will "snap" to the location that I want when I move it and let go of the marker near the location. But I also want to still be able to move the marker if I want to.
I know Mapbox gl has bearingSnap which snaps the map back to north after the user rotates the map but I can't find anything for just icons/markers and I don't believe I can use bearingSnap for it.
Thanks.
You can use Turfs distance function: turf.distance(pt1, pt2) to measure distances between 2 points. If then the calculated distance is under a certain threshold, you can set the location of your dragging point to the location of your snap point.
I have you a working example in a jsfiddle:
https://jsfiddle.net/andi_lo/nmc4kprn/
function onMove(e) {
if (!isDragging) return;
var coords = e.lngLat;
// Set a UI indicator for dragging.
canvas.style.cursor = 'grabbing';
// Update the Point feature in `geojson` coordinates
// and call setData to the source layer `point` on it.
geojson.features[0].geometry.coordinates = [coords.lng, coords.lat];
map.getSource('point').setData(geojson);
let snapTo = map.getSource('snap')._data;
turf.featureEach(snapTo, (feature) => {
let dist = turf.distance(feature, turf.point([coords.lng, coords.lat]));
console.log(dist);
// if the distance of the dragging point is under a certain threshold
if (dist < 500) {
// set the location of the dragging point to the location of the snapping point
geojson.features[0].geometry.coordinates = feature.geometry.coordinates;
map.getSource('point').setData(geojson);
}
});
}
This is a feature you can and should implement upstream of GL JS. When you construct the coordinate of the marker or GeoJSON feature, snap it to the desired grid.

Unable to display only the points within a specific range (circle) using the .getBounds() function (Leaflet)

I am trying to display a certain amount of points within a specific range, that is within a circle. But when using the .getBounds() function for comparison to see whether the point is within the bound, i get some points outside it as shown in the screenshot below:
Map Screenshot
The code currently using to check if the point is within the circle bound is below:
echo '
var mark = L.marker([' . $r->coordinates[0]->longitude . ',' . $r->coordinates[0]->latitude . ']);
if(circle.getBounds().contains(mark.getLatLng())){
mark.addTo(map);
mark.bindPopup("'.$info.'");
}
';
I am looping into an array to retrieve the latitude and longitude and from there, to see whether the coordinates fills into the bound, if so, it adds it to the map with their corresponding popup
Any solution regarding this particular issue?
Thanks for helping
You can create your own contains method and add it to the L.Circle class because it doesn't have one by default. You can use the utility method distanceTo of the L.LatLng objects to calculate distance between your marker and the circle's center and compare that to the circle's radius:
L.Circle.include({
contains: function (latLng) {
return this.getLatLng().distanceTo(latLng) < this.getRadius();
}
});
Now when you have a circle and a marker or latlng object you can do this:
var map = L.map(...);
var circle = L.circle(...).addTo(map),
marker = L.marker(...).addTo(map);
latLng = L.latLng(...);
// Returns true when in the circle and false when outside
circle.contains(marker.getLatLng());
circle.contains(latLng);
Working example on Plunker: http://plnkr.co/edit/OPF7DM?p=preview
L.Circle reference: http://leafletjs.com/reference.html#circle
L.Marker reference: http://leafletjs.com/reference.html#marker
L.LatLng reference: http://leafletjs.com/reference.html#latlng
The method getBounds() always returns a rectangular area. Hence it can't be used for checking whether a non-rectangular object contains a given point.
For a circle you should be able to calculate the distance (distanceTo()) of the point to the circle's center (getLatLng()) and check whether it is smaller than the circle's radius (getRadius()). Note that the distance and radius are in meters.
