ColorReliefLayerSchema

const ColorReliefLayerSchema: ZodObject<object & object, "passthrough", ZodTypeAny, objectOutputType<object & object, ZodTypeAny, "passthrough">, objectInputType<object & object, ZodTypeAny, "passthrough">>

Defined in: packages/core/src/schemas/layer.schema.ts:1125

Color-relief layer: hypsometric tinting of a raster DEM (maplibre-gl ≥ 5.6).

Remarks

Colors each DEM pixel by its elevation. color-relief-color is a color ramp over the ["elevation"] expression, exactly like heatmap-color is a ramp over ["heatmap-density"]. The source must be raster-dem — the same sources hillshade layers draw from.

Runtime floor: the layer type exists from maplibre-gl 5.6.0. On an older runtime the renderer skips the layer with one warning (a declared absence) instead of letting MapLibre reject the document; emit with a --target below 5.6 reports the layer as lossy.

Example

- id: relief
  type: color-relief
  source:
    type: raster-dem
    url: "https://demotiles.maplibre.org/terrain-tiles/tiles.json"
    tileSize: 256
  paint:
    color-relief-color:
      - interpolate
      - ["linear"]
      - ["elevation"]
      - 400
      - "rgb(4, 0, 108)"
      - 3500
      - "rgb(215, 5, 13)"
