Calculation method
Calculation method
Covered area inside boundary
Clip horizontal rectangular swaths to boundary, calculate union by exact slab sweep.
Overlap area counted more than once
Sum clipped swath areas minus union area.
Boundary coverage fraction
Union area/boundary rectangle area.

Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- Exact planar coverage for horizontal straight rectangular swaths clipped to an axis-aligned rectangular boundary. Arbitrary curved tracks and irregular survey boundaries are outside this supported geometry. Quantities are deterministic calculations from supplied observations and assumptions; no external data is fetched. Supported limits: Finite inputs only; numeric fields bounded as labelled. Lists and JSON records are limited to 256 entries unless a stricter tool bound is stated. No automatic design approval, legal conclusion, treatment recommendation or safety certification. Rectangular survey boundary [west,south,east,north]: minimum None, maximum 1000000000000.0.
