Description
Hello,
Currently the mapbox has a drawing tool. However, it only allows you to draw through geometric shapes.
My suggestion is to develop a free drawing tool on the map.
Steps to Trigger Behavior
A new drawing format is added to the mapbox-draw;
The user clicks on map and move the mouse;
On mouseup, the drawed area is filled.
Expected Behavior
More interactive maps, that allow to filter data with the drawed area.
Thanks,
Nuno

Research direction
Review the existing drawing formats and mouse-event flow in mapbox-gl-draw before deciding how a free-draw mode fits alongside geometric shapes. Verify the interaction from mouse press and movement through mouseup, then confirm that the completed area is filled and available for filtering map data.
