Hi
I am still having problems using area.
I've simplified my shape to
29.8 -80.7
29.8 -80.6
29.6 -80.6
29.6 -80.7
29.8 -80.7
This is about 83 square miles by my hand calculations, or 72 NM^2.
The value returned from GeoArray.area is -1.5712.
The value returned from Geo.nm(-1.5712) is -5401.4
I having a hard time getting consistency with other shapes
Do the points need to be in any order? What else should I do with square radians to turn it into square NM.
Thanks!
