Calculate irregular land area with known coordinates, perimeter, and edge length. Visualize land shape with a chart.

Irregular Land Area, Coordinates Known

Purpose

The purpose of this calculator function is to calculate the area and perimeter of an irregular land shape when the coordinates of the land are known.

Use Cases

• This function can be used by users who have the coordinates of the corners of a land area and want to calculate its area and perimeter.

How to Use

1. Enter the coordinates of the land area in the input fields provided.
2. Click on the calculate button to get the results.

Input Values

1. Point: The name of the corner point.
2. X: The X-coordinate of the corner point.
3. Y: The Y-coordinate of the corner point.

Note: The default unit of measurement for coordinates is feet.

Output Values

1. Area: The calculated area of the land shape.
2. Coordinate Unit: The unit of measurement used for the coordinates.
3. Coordinates: The input coordinates.
4. Perimeter: The calculated perimeter of the land shape.
5. Chart: A visual representation of the land shape.
6. Edges: The lengths of each edge of the land shape.

Any other Instruction

• Make sure to enter the coordinates correctly to get accurate results.
• Review the chart and edges to visualize the land shape and its measurements.

Steps of Calculation

1. Convert the input coordinates to the specified unit of measurement.
2. Calculate the area and perimeter of the land shape using the input coordinates.
3. Generate a chart to visualize the land shape.
4. Return the calculated area, perimeter, chart, and edge lengths as output.

Technical Parameters

• coordinates, result_area_unit, result_length_unit

Return Values

• Area, Coordinate unit, Coordinates, Perimeter, Chart, Edges

Example Expressions

You can use the following expressions to directly evaluate in a non-interactive manner using eva():

1. Calculate area and perimeter with coordinates in feet:

irg_land(coordinates={'Point': ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E'], 'X': ['1 ft', '30 ft', '30 ft', '20 ft', '10 ft'], 'Y': ['0 ft', '0 ft', '40 ft', '50 ft', '20 ft']}, result_area_unit='decimal', result_length_unit='ft')

1. Calculate area and perimeter with coordinates in meters:

irg_land(coordinates={'Point': ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E'], 'X': ['0.3048 m', '9.144 m', '9.144 m', '6.096 m', '3.048 m'], 'Y': ['0 m', '0 m', '12.192 m', '15.24 m', '6.096 m']}, result_area_unit='decimal', result_length_unit='m')
