I am measuring a feature that is somewhat round but has lot of jagged edges. I want to use all of the areas to calculate the area. I am measuring this using hundreds of points. Anyone have any ideas ? I have searched for answers but can't seem to come up with any.
After a little reflexion,
ASSIGN/SURFACE[V3]=SQRT(DOT(V1,V1))*SQRT(DOT(V2,V 2))*SIN(DEG2RAD(ANGLEBETWEEN(V1,V2))) is enough (the cross product gives a vector, but its length is enough)
Krbrumma : You have 17000 points, so maybe the area of each little triangle is less than the decimal place, which gives you a zero.
