import "@arcgis/map-components/components/arcgis-area-measurement-3d";
The Area Measurement 3D component can be added to a Scene component to calculate and display area and perimeter of polygons.
How the area and perimeter are computed depends on the scene's spatial reference and the length of the measured perimeter.
In geographic coordinate systems (GCS) and in Web Mercator:
- If the measurement's perimeter is below 100 km, they are computed in a Euclidean manner, in an ECEF coordinate system (or equivalent on other planets).
- If the perimeter is above 100 km, they are computed geodetically, and the visualization takes the curvature of the planet into consideration.
In projected coordinate systems (PCS), apart from Web Mercator, the area and perimeter are always calculated in a Euclidean manner (in their respective PCS).
The area may be visualized and calculated in two ways:
- If all the vertices are mostly coplanar (lying on the same plane), the measurement polygon is formed on that plane, and area and perimeter are calculated from its geometry.
- If the vertices don't form a planar surface, the measurement polygon is projected to a horizontal plane, and area and perimeter are calculated from its geometry.
When the component is active, a horizontal "laser" line is drawn which indicates the height at the current mouse position. This line can help in analyzing the heights of objects relative to each other and the terrain.
Things to consider
- Area Measurement 3D is designed to work in the Scene component. For measurements in the Map component, use Area Measurement 2D.
- Snapping is enabled by default. Holding the
CTRL
key disables it. - Layer types currently supported for snapping are: FeatureLayer, GraphicsLayer (except Mesh geometries), GeoJSONLayer, WFSLayer, CSVLayer, 3D Object SceneLayer, and BuildingSceneLayer.

analysis
analysis: AreaMeasurementAnalysis
The AreaMeasurementAnalysis created or modified by the component.
When connecting the Area Measurement 3D component to the Scene component, it automatically creates an empty analysis and adds it to the Scene's analyses collection. Whenever the component is destroyed, the analysis is automatically removed from the collection.
Alternatively, a programmatically created analysis can be provided to the component. Then, the application itself needs to add it to and later remove it from the Scene's analyses collection.
// Create the analysis.
const areaMeasurementAnalysis = new AreaMeasurementAnalysis({
geometry: new Polygon({

autoDestroyDisabled
autoDestroyDisabled: boolean
If true, the component will not be destroyed automatically when it is disconnected from the document. This is useful when you want to move the component to a different place on the page, or temporarily hide it. If this is set, make sure to call the destroy method when you are done to prevent memory leaks.
- Attribute

- false
icon
icon: string
Icon which represents the component. Typically used when the component is controlled by another component (e.g. by the Expand component).
