Can anyone point me in the direction of a formula or technique to calculate an area of irregular shapes (no holes), from a list of coordinates - without a GIS? The answer can be in square coordinate units. The formulae uncovered so far indicate a rather manual subdivision of the shape into triangles, but I suspect that this is not the only answer.
I know that this is not a Mapinfo question, but it is a geographic question.
