Defines a shape similar to an ellipse, but by reference to distance across the ground. Because map projections vary, an oval in which all four radii are equal may or may not appear as an exact circle.
Format
{
"centre": <point>,
"radiusX": <int>,
"radiusY": <int>
}
Parameters
Name | Mandatory? | Description |
centre | Y | Locates the centrepoint of the oval on the map |
northRadius | Y | Centre to north radius in metres |
eastRadius | Y | Centre to east radius in metres |
southRadius | Y | Centre to south radius in metres |
westRadius | Y | Centre to west radius in metres |
NOTES
If you need a geometrically accurate shape defined by pixels, see <circle> or <ellipse>.
