esri/geometry/Circle
A circle is a Polygon created by specifying a center point and a radius. The point can be provided as a Point object or an array of latitude/longitude values.
The SpatialReference of the center will determine the spatial reference of the circle. If you provide an array of longitude/latitude coordinates as the center, the spatial reference will default to WGS84 (wkid 4326). You cannot set the spatialReference property of the circle itself. It must always be set in the center point.

Property Details
-
The cache is used to store values computed from geometries that need to be cleared or recomputed upon mutation. An example is the extent of a polygon.
-
The center point of the circle. The center must be specified either as a Point or an array of longitude/latitude coordinates. The spatial reference of the center will determine the spatial reference of the circle. If you provide an array of longitude/latitude coordinates, the spatial reference will default to WGS84 (wkid 4326).
-
The centroid of the polygon. For a polygon with multiple rings, it represents the centroid of the largest ring.
-
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.7
-
The name of the class. The declared class name is formatted as
esri.folder.className
.
-
The extent of the geometry. For a point, the extent is null.
-
geodesic Boolean
-
Applicable when the spatial reference of the center point is either set to Web Mercator (wkid: 3857) or geographic/geodesic (wkid: 4326). When either of those spatial references is used, set geodesic to
true
to minimize distortion. Other coordinate systems will not create geodesic circles.- Default Value:false
-
Indicates if the geometry has M values.
-
Indicates if the geometry has z-values (elevation).
Z-values defined in a geographic or metric coordinate system are expressed in meters. However, in local scenes that use a projected coordinate system, vertical units are assumed to be the same as the horizontal units specified by the service.
-
Checks to see if polygon rings cross each other and indicates if the polygon is self-intersecting, which means the ring of the polygon crosses itself.
-
numberOfPoints Number
-
This value defines the number of points along the curve of the circle.
- Default Value:60
-
radius Number
-
The radius of the circle.
- Default Value:1000
-
radiusUnit String
-
Unit of the radius.
Possible Values:"feet"|"kilometers"|"meters"|"miles"|"nautical-miles"|"yards"
- Default Value:meters
-
An array of rings. Each ring is a two-dimensional array of numbers representing the coordinates of each vertex in the ring in the spatial reference of the view. The first vertex of each ring should always be the same as the last vertex. Each vertex is an array of two, three, or four numbers. The table below shows the various structures of a vertex array.
Case Vertex array without z and without m [x, y] without z and with m [x, y, m] with z and without m [x, y, z] with z and with m [x, y, z, m] Example//3D polygon rings with m-values (note that the second ring does not have m-values defined for it) const rings = [ [ // first ring [-97.06138,32.837,35.1,4.8], [-97.06133,32.836,35.2,4.1], [-97.06124,32.834,35.3,4.2], [-97.06138,32.837,35.1,4.8] // same as first vertex ], [ // second ring [-97.06326,32.759,35.4], [-97.06298,32.755,35.5], [-97.06153,32.749,35.6], [-97.06326,32.759,35.4] // same as first vertex ] ]; const polygon = new Polygon({ hasZ: true, hasM: true, rings: rings, spatialReference: { wkid: 4326 } });
-
-
The spatial reference of the geometry.
- Default Value:WGS84 (wkid: 4326)
-
The string value representing the type of geometry.
For Polygon the type is always "polygon".

addHandles(handleOrHandles, groupKey)inheritedSince: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25
-
Adds one or more handles which are to be tied to the lifecycle of the object. The handles will be removed when the object is destroyed.
