Delivery Zones via geoJSON

GeoJSON is a format for encoding a variety of geographic data structures.

Use GeoJSON files to map out specific coordinates for your delivery zones.

GeoJSON Use Cases

Distance from a point

  • Example use case: Map out a zone that is a 15 minute drive from your store ($5 fee) and another that is a 30 minute drive from your store ($10 fee)

Snapping to a boundary (zip code, town lines)

  • Example use case: You can deliver to Town A, but Town B prohibits cannabis delivery, yet they are both in the same zip code
