Geometric functions

Tools to calculate and extract geometric properties such as area, perimeter, coordinates, and elevation values.

These values can be stored in new or existing attribute fields.

Geometric functions can also be used in conditional expressions—for example, to classify or filter features based on their size or location—enhancing spatial data analysis and organization.
