# GeoDjango Forms API

GeoDjango provides some specialized form fields and widgets in order to visually display and edit geolocalized data on a map. By default, they use OpenLayers-powered maps, with a base WMS layer provided by NASA.

## Field arguments

In addition to the regular form field arguments, GeoDjango form fields take the following optional arguments.

### `srid`

Field.srid

  This is the SRID code that the field value should be transformed to. For example, if the map widget SRID is different from the SRID more generally used by your application or database, the field will automatically convert input values into that SRID.

### `geom_type`

Field.geom_type

  You generally shouldn’t have to set or change that attribute which should be set up depending on the field class. It matches the OpenGIS standard geometry name.

### `max_geom_collections`

Field.max_geom_collections
  New in Django 5.2.17.

  The maximum number of geometry collections the field accepts before refusing to parse the input and raising a `ValidationError`. This guards against crashes in the underlying GEOS library when parsing deeply nested `GEOMETRYCOLLECTION` input. It defaults to `198`.

  The limit is applied differently depending on the input format: for well-known text (WKT) it bounds the nesting depth, while for well-known binary (WKB and hex-encoded WKB) it bounds the total number of geometry collections (both breadth and depth). As a result, the same value may accept a wide, shallow collection as WKT but reject it as WKB. For GeoJSON, the limit is not applied at all, since GDAL parses that input type instead.

  Increase this value (or set to `None`) only if you must accept legitimately deep geometries, since doing so reduces protection against fatal errors.

## “widgets” de formulários

GeoDjango form widgets allow you to display and edit geographic data on a visual map. Note that none of the currently available widgets supports 3D geometries, hence geometry fields will fallback using a `Textarea` widget for such data.

### Atributos de “widget”

GeoDjango widgets are template-based, so their attributes are mostly different from other Django widget attributes.

BaseGeometryWidget.base_layer
  New in Django 6.0.

  A string that specifies the identifier for the default base map layer to be used by the corresponding JavaScript map widget. It is passed as part of the widget options when rendering, allowing the `MapWidget` to determine which map tile provider or base layer to initialize (default is `None`).

BaseGeometryWidget.geom_type

  The OpenGIS geometry type, generally set by the form field.

BaseGeometryWidget.map_srid

  SRID code used by the map (default is 4326).

BaseGeometryWidget.display_raw

  Boolean value specifying if a textarea input showing the serialized representation of the current geometry is visible, mainly for debugging purposes (default is `False`).

BaseGeometryWidget.supports_3d

  Indicates if the widget supports edition of 3D data (default is `False`).

BaseGeometryWidget.template_name

  The template used to render the map widget.

You can pass widget attributes in the same manner that for any other Django widget. For example:

    from django.contrib.gis import forms

    class MyGeoForm(forms.Form):
        point = forms.PointField(widget=forms.OSMWidget(attrs={"display_raw": True}))

### Widget classes

`BaseGeometryWidget`

class BaseGeometryWidget

  This is an abstract base widget containing the logic needed by subclasses. You cannot directly use this widget for a geometry field. Note that the rendering of GeoDjango widgets is based on a base layer name, identified by the `base_layer` class attribute.

`OpenLayersWidget`

class OpenLayersWidget

  This is the default widget used by all GeoDjango form fields. Attributes are:

  base_layer
    New in Django 6.0.

    `nasaWorldview`

  template_name

    `gis/openlayers.html`.

  map_srid

    `3857`

  `OpenLayersWidget` and `OSMWidget` include the `ol.js` and `ol.css` files hosted on the `cdn.jsdelivr.net` content-delivery network. These files can be overridden by subclassing the widget and setting the `js` and `css` properties of the inner `Media` class (see Assets as a static definition).

  External assets with CSP

  When `ContentSecurityPolicyMiddleware` is enabled, the default OpenLayers CDN assets (`ol.js` and `ol.css`) will be blocked unless explicitly allowed. This can be addressed in one of two ways: serve assets locally by subclassing the widget and provide local copies of the JavaScript and CSS files, or allow the CDN in the CSP policy.

  For example, to allow the default NASA Worldview base layer (replace `x.y.z` with the actual version):

      from django.utils.csp import CSP

      SECURE_CSP = {
          "default-src": [CSP.SELF],
          "script-src": [CSP.SELF, "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/ol@x.y.z/dist/ol.js"],
          "style-src": [CSP.SELF, "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/ol@x.y.z/ol.css"],
          "img-src": [CSP.SELF, "https://*.earthdata.nasa.gov"],
      }

`OSMWidget`

class OSMWidget

  This widget specialized `OpenLayersWidget` and uses an OpenStreetMap base layer to display geographic objects on. Attributes are:

  base_layer
    New in Django 6.0.

    `osm`

  default_lat
  default_lon

    The default center latitude and longitude are `47` and `5`, respectively, which is a location in eastern France.

  default_zoom

    The default map zoom is `12`.

  The `OpenLayersWidget` note about using external assets also applies here. See also this FAQ answer about `https` access to map tiles.

  OpenStreetMap tiles with CSP

  This widget uses OpenStreetMap tiles instead of NASA Worldview. If Content Security Policy enabled, both the OpenLayers CDN resources (as required by `OpenLayersWidget`) and the OpenStreetMap tile servers must be allowed:

      from django.utils.csp import CSP

      SECURE_CSP = {
          # other directives
          "img-src": [CSP.SELF, "https://tile.openstreetmap.org"],
      }

  Changed in Django 6.0:

  The `OSMWidget` no longer uses a custom template. Consequently, the `gis/openlayers-osm.html` template was removed.

### Customizing the base layer used in OpenLayers-based widgets

New in Django 6.0.

To customize the base layer displayed in OpenLayers-based geometry widgets, define a new layer builder in a custom JavaScript file. For example:

`path-to-file.js`

     MapWidget.layerBuilder.custom_layer_name = function () {
         // Return an OpenLayers layer instance.
         return new ol.layer.Tile({source: new ol.source.<ChosenSource>()});
     };

Then, subclass a standard geometry widget and set the `base_layer`:

    from django.contrib.gis.forms.widgets import OpenLayersWidget

    class YourCustomWidget(OpenLayersWidget):
        base_layer = "custom_layer_name"

        class Media:
            js = ["path-to-file.js"]
