Azure maps - point vs feature vs shape

I am new to Azure maps and reading through the documentation.

This blurb describes Points, Features and Shapes.

But it doesn't really help me understand why I would use one over the other. Can someone help me understand the differences and/or point me to some articles that shed light on the subject?

Solution

  • please give this article a try and see if it's helpful. It describes what different geometries are available in the GeoJSON standard and what's point vs shape vs feature.
