esri/geometry/operators/minimumBoundingCircleOperator
Create a minimum bounding circle for the input geometry. The output is a polygon with a single closed circular segment containing curves. Implements the Welzl's algorithm using greedy heuristic with expected O(n) time complexity.
Note
- If curves are not needed, then densify the output geometry.
