Takes a set of points and partition them into clusters using the k-means algorithm.
npm install @turf/clusters-kmeansTakes a set of [points][1] and partition them into clusters using the k-mean .
It uses the [k-means algorithm][2]
* points [FeatureCollection][3]<[Point][1]> to be clustered
* options [Object][4] Optional parameters (optional, default {})
* options.numberOfClusters [number][5] numberOfClusters that will be generated (optional, default Math.sqrt(numberOfPoints/2))
* options.mutate [boolean][6] allows GeoJSON input to be mutated (significant performance increase if true) (optional, default false)
``javascript
// create random points with random z-values in their properties
var points = turf.randomPoint(100, {bbox: [0, 30, 20, 50]});
var options = {numberOfClusters: 7};
var clustered = turf.clustersKmeans(points, options);
//addToMap
var addToMap = [clustered];
`
Returns [FeatureCollection][3]<[Point][1]> Clustered Points with an additional two properties associated to each Feature:* {number} cluster - the associated clusterId
* {\[number, number]} centroid - Centroid of the cluster \[Longitude, Latitude]

This module is part of the Turfjs project, an open source module collection dedicated to geographic algorithms. It is maintained in the Turfjs/turf repository, where you can create PRs and issues.
Install this single module individually:
`sh`
$ npm install @turf/clusters-kmeans
Or install the all-encompassing @turf/turf module that includes all modules as functions:
`sh``
