OpenLayers. Geometry. Curve

A Curve is a MultiPoint, whose points are assumed to be connected.  To this end, we provide a “getLength()” function, which iterates through the points, summing the distances between them.

Constructor

OpenLayers. Geometry. Curve

Parameters

point {Array(OpenLayers.Geometry.Point)}

Functions

getLength

getLength: function()

Returns

{Float} The length of the curve

getGeodesicLength

getGeodesicLength: function( projection )

Calculate the approximate length of the geometry were it projected onto the earth.

projection {OpenLayers.Projection} The spatial reference system for the geometry coordinates.  If not provided, Geographic/WGS84 is assumed.

Returns

{Float} The appoximate geodesic length of the geometry in meters.

getLength: function()
{Float} The length of the curve
getGeodesicLength: function( projection )
