New basemap styling is coming soon to Google Maps Platform. This update to map styling includes a new default color palette, modernized pins, and improvements to map experiences and usability. All map styles will be automatically updated in March 2025. For more information on availability and how to opt in earlier, see New map style for Google Maps Platform.
Returns the signed area of a geodesic polygon defined by path on Earth.
The result has the same absolute value as GMSGeometryArea(); it is positive if the points of
path are in counter-clockwise order, and negative otherwise.
The same restrictions as on GMSGeometryArea() apply.
