# timespace [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/mapbox/timespace.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/mapbox/timespace)
Compute fuzzy local time from a location. The default accuracy is [zoom level 8](http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Zoom_levels). See ["Regenerate timezones.json"](https://github.com/mapbox/timespace#regenerate-timezonesjson) section for instructions on how to change accuracy.

Timezone data is from https://github.com/evansiroky/timezone-boundary-builder/.

## Install
```
npm install @mapbox/timespace
```

## Test
```
npm run test
```

## Use

### Functions

```js
var ts = require('@mapbox/timespace');

var timestamp = Date.now();
var point = [-122.27783203125, 37.84015683604136];
var time = ts.getFuzzyLocalTimeFromPoint(timestamp, point);
//=> (a `moment-timezone` object – see https://momentjs.com/timezone/)


var tile = [41, 98, 8];     // the tile [x, y, z] whose timezone we want to know
var timezone1 = ts.getFuzzyTimezoneFromTile(tile);
//=> 'America/Los_Angeles'


var quadkey = '02301021';   // the quadkey whose timezone we want to know
var timezone2 = ts.getFuzzyTimezoneFromQuadkey(quadkey);
//=> 'America/Los_Angeles'
```

`./lib/timezones.json` file contains the timezone name of every z8 tile that contains land.


If a tile/quadkey with zoom levels > 8 is passed into timespace functions, the timezone of its z8 parent is returned.

If a tile/quadkey with zoom levels < 8 is passed into timespace functions, the most popular timezone amongst its z8 children is returned.


## Regenerate timezones.json

To update timezone.json,
1. find the link address of the latest timezones.shapefile.zip release from https://github.com/evansiroky/timezone-boundary-builder/releases,
2. replace the link address in [this line](https://github.com/mapbox/timespace/blob/master/regenerate/regenerate-timezones.sh#L1) with the the link from step 1
3. run `npm run regenerate`
4. run `npm run test` to verify the new timezones.json file is ok


To generate timezone.json for another zoom level:
1. change [the number in this line](https://github.com/mapbox/timespace/blob/master/regenerate/regenerate-timezones.sh#L8) to the desired zoom level,
2. run `npm run regenerate`
3. run `npm run test` to verify the new timezones.json file is ok
