gLength | R Documentation |
Calculates the length of the given geometry.
gLength(spgeom, byid=FALSE)
spgeom |
sp object as defined in package sp |
byid |
Logical determining if the function should be applied across subgeometries (TRUE) or the entire object (FALSE) |
Returns the length of the geometry in the units of the current projection. By definition [MULTI]POINTs have a length of 0. The length of POLYGONs is the sum of the length of their shell and their hole(s).
