AreaSimilarityMeasure (JTS Topology Suite 1.20.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.locationtech.jts.algorithm.match.AreaSimilarityMeasure

All Implemented Interfaces:

SimilarityMeasure
```
public class AreaSimilarityMeasure
extends Object
implements SimilarityMeasure
```
Measures the degree of similarity between two Geometrys using the area of intersection between the geometries. The measure is normalized to lie in the range [0, 1]. Higher measures indicate a great degree of similarity.
NOTE: Currently experimental and incomplete.
