Argument

Type

Description

geometryValue

WTK String or

Geometry Object

The geometry used to create the normalized copy of the geometry.

decimalPlaces

Integer

The number of decimal places to use in the geometry calculations. Defaults to 0 if not provided. Can also take negative values e.g. -1 uses geometry to the nearest 10.

Examples
