Font-GIS
*Icon font set for use with GIS and spatial analysis tools*
[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/font-gis)
I've collected in this repo icons and graphics I've been using in my projects.
Font-GIS icons and font theme is designed mainly for GIS applications and web mapping tools.
They can be easily included in a project using the font or svg images.
[See demo page and examples 
](https://viglino.github.io/font-gis/)
## 
Getting started
### NPM package
Font-GIS is availiable on [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/font-gis):
```console
npm install --save font-gis
```
You can access the font or css in the `./font` and `./css` directory of the package.
The svg sprites are located in the `./dist/font-gis.svg` SVG file.
### using Font-GIS
You can use Font-GIS as a font or as SVG symbols or images.
To use it in a web page, just add the css in your project.
```html
```
Then use an inline element with a class prefixed with `fg-` to add a new icon.
```html
```
Or use it as an svg sprite (svg sprites are inlocated in the `./dist/font-gis.svg` file):
```html
```
## 
Contributing
Please use the [GitHub issue tracker](https://github.com/Viglino/font-gis/issues) to ask for new features
or create a pull request.
Font is created from the files in the `./svg` folder, you only have to create a new file in this folder.
Use the `./templates/template.svg` template to create a new icon.
You can add a new glyph in the [font-gis.json](https://github.com/Viglino/font-gis/blob/main/font-gis.json) file with a theme and search tags
(other fields will be filled automatically).
Your contribution will be published under [Font-GIS license](https://github.com/Viglino/font-gis/blob/main/LICENSE.md) as per [GitHub's terms of service](https://help.github.com/articles/github-terms-of-service/#6-contributions-under-repository-license).
If you wan't to build the font and create the dist, use the build script (run `npm install` to install the dev dependencies before):
```console
npm run build
```
Use a local server (http://localhost:8181/) to see result on the page:
```console
npm start
```
