Re: My trail / Cache chain
I have updated the scipt. Now it can calculate the area and perimeter of each green polygon. Area is calculated using Vincenty's and Heron's formulas. The result is good enough for comparison of reasonabe le size areas but gives noticeably wrong results when used with huge areas like 10% from surface of the earth. There is a better formula available but the length of the formula is longer than the script itself >:D<

Example checker is available here https://project-gc.com/Challenges//30999
