Let two polygons A and B be defined by the coordinate pair sequences (x , y ) for i= 1, 2, ..., a and (x , y ) for i= 1, 2, ..., b respectively. i i i i I would like to have (a reference to) an algorithm that can be used to calculate the area of the overlap of the areas bounded by these two polygons. Note that this overlap is not necessarily a simply connected area. Jos Groot Physics and Electronics Laboratory FEL-TNO P.O.box 96864 's-Gravenhage the Netherlands
