Area Under the Curve

Area under the curve

This function applies to geo-spatial datasets and calculates the area represented by plotting each combination of latitude and longitude for a specific key. Minimum 3 entries are needed for this function to work. The latitude & longitude columns can be grouped by another column. For example a grouping field could represent restaurants that have users ordering food from their location that is represented by a longitude and latitude columns. In this case area under the curve would be the geo-spatial polygon plotted using latitude/longitude of each user grouped by the restaurant.

Result of the above could be written to the new field “Calculated Area” using the selected Unity type and the algorithm
