Calculates the bounding box for any GeoJSON object, including FeatureCollection. Uses geojson.bbox if available and options.recompute is not set.

• geojson GeoJSON any GeoJSON object

• options Object Optional parameters (optional, default {})

  • options.recompute boolean? Whether to ignore an existing bbox property on geojson

var line = turf.lineString([[-74, 40], [-78, 42], [-82, 35]]);
var bbox = turf.bbox(line);
var bboxPolygon = turf.bboxPolygon(bbox);

//addToMap
var addToMap = [line, bboxPolygon]

Returns BBox bbox extent in [minX, minY, maxX, maxY] order
