[−][src]Function opencv::imgproc::contour_area
pub fn contour_area(contour: &dyn ToInputArray, oriented: bool) -> Result<f64>
Calculates a contour area.
The function computes a contour area. Similarly to moments , the area is computed using the Green formula. Thus, the returned area and the number of non-zero pixels, if you draw the contour using #drawContours or #fillPoly , can be different. Also, the function will most certainly give a wrong results for contours with self-intersections.
Example:
ⓘThis example is not tested
vector<Point> contour; contour.push_back(Point2f(0, 0)); contour.push_back(Point2f(10, 0)); contour.push_back(Point2f(10, 10)); contour.push_back(Point2f(5, 4)); double area0 = contourArea(contour); vector<Point> approx; approxPolyDP(contour, approx, 5, true); double area1 = contourArea(approx); cout << "area0 =" << area0 << endl << "area1 =" << area1 << endl << "approx poly vertices" << approx.size() << endl;
Parameters
- contour: Input vector of 2D points (contour vertices), stored in std::vector or Mat.
- oriented: Oriented area flag. If it is true, the function returns a signed area value, depending on the contour orientation (clockwise or counter-clockwise). Using this feature you can determine orientation of a contour by taking the sign of an area. By default, the parameter is false, which means that the absolute value is returned.
C++ default parameters
- oriented: false
