I'm trying to draw a circle with radius X kilometers, but it occurred to me that the radius option isn't being measured in km, since the api example has a radius of 400,000 but only actually goes out about 500 miles.
does anyone know what unit it's using?
If you're using CalcMaps, click on Draw a circle and add the circle on the map area you're interested in. Use can then use the drop-down menu to select the radius type you want to use. The tool automatically calculates the circle area as well.
Google Map Developers Distance is given in feet, meters, kilometers, and miles. Draw a circle - Enter a radius then click a point or enter an address to draw a circle on a google map.
Click 'Draw A Circle', then click on the map and drag your cursor to create the circle. To adjust the size or the position of the circle simply click on the circle to make it editable. Then drag the orange dot to change the size of the circle or click, hold and drag the blue dot to move the position of the circle.
The standard unit is meters. Use math to adjust.
