In gdalraster: Bindings to the 'Geospatial Data Abstraction Library' Raster API
g_area R Documentation
Compute the area of a geometry
Description
g_area() computes the area for a LinearRing, Polygon or
MultiPolygon. Undefined for all other geometry types (returns zero).
Usage
g_area(wkt)
Arguments
wkt
Character. OGC WKT string for a simple feature geometry.
Value
Numeric scalar. Area of the geometry or 0.
Note
LinearRing is a non-standard geometry type, used in GDAL just for geometry
creation.
