getCoordinates(opt_right){Array.<Array.<ol.Coordinate>>}

src/ol/geom/polygon.js, line 166

Get the coordinate array for this geometry. This array has the structure of a GeoJSON coordinate array for polygons.

Name Type Description
right boolean

Orient coordinates according to the right-hand rule (counter-clockwise for exterior and clockwise for interior rings). If false, coordinates will be oriented according to the left-hand rule (clockwise for exterior and counter-clockwise for interior rings). By default, coordinate orientation will depend on how the geometry was constructed.

Returns:
Coordinates.

src/ol/geom/geometry.js, line 159

Get the extent of the geometry.

Name Type Description
extent ol.Extent

Last point.

getLayout(){ol.geom.GeometryLayout} inherited

src/ol/geom/simplegeometry.js, line 130
Returns:
Layout.

getLinearRing(index){ol.geom.LinearRing}

src/ol/geom/polygon.js, line 235

Return the Nth linear ring of the polygon geometry. Return null if the given index is out of range. The exterior linear ring is available at index 0 and the interior rings at index 1 and beyond.

transform(source, destination){ol.geom.Geometry} inherited

src/ol/geom/geometry.js, line 235

Transform each coordinate of the geometry from one coordinate reference system to another. The geometry is modified in place. For example, a line will be transformed to a line and a circle to a circle. If you do not want the geometry modified in place, first clone() it and then use this function on the clone.
