How do I calculate the center of a polygon in Google Maps Android API v2?
android, android-maps-v2, google-maps-android-api-2
Solution
Below is the code which I am using now to find the center of polygon:-
public static double[] centroid(List<PolyPoints> points) {
double[] centroid = { 0.0, 0.0 };
for (int i = 0; i < points.size(); i++) {
centroid[0] += points.get(i).getLatitude();
centroid[1] += points.get(i).getLongitude();
}
int totalPoints = points.size();
centroid[0] = centroid[0] / totalPoints;
centroid[1] = centroid[1] / totalPoints;
return centroid;
}
Problem
I have drawn a polygon on google map using several Latitude,Longitude points.But now I need to place a marker at the center of the polygon for which I need the center coordinates.How do I calculate the center point. Below is the code for adding polygons on map: ``` for (Warning w : warningsList) { // Instantiates a new Polygon object and adds points PolygonOptions rectOptions = new PolygonOptions(); List<PolyPoints> pp = w.getPolyPoints(); for (PolyPoints p : pp) { rectOptions.add(new LatLng(Double.valueOf(p.getLatitude()), Double.valueOf(p.getLongitude()))); } mMap.addPolygon(rectOptions.strokeColor(Color.GREEN) .fillColor(Color.RED).strokeWidth(STROKE_WIDTH)); } ``` I found similar question which has been answered but thats for JavaScript Api.Is their any way of using the same solution in my case?
