有了一个点列表,我如何确定它们是否是顺时针顺序的?

例如:

point[0] = (5,0)
point[1] = (6,4)
point[2] = (4,5)
point[3] = (1,5)
point[4] = (1,0)

会说它是逆时针的(对某些人来说是逆时针的)

Sean的答案的JavaScript实现:

function calcArea(poly) { if(!poly || poly.length < 3) return null; let end = poly.length - 1; let sum = poly[end][0]*poly[0][1] - poly[0][0]*poly[end][1]; for(let i=0; i<end; ++i) { const n=i+1; sum += poly[i][0]*poly[n][1] - poly[n][0]*poly[i][1]; } return sum; } function isClockwise(poly) { return calcArea(poly) > 0; } let poly = [[352,168],[305,208],[312,256],[366,287],[434,248],[416,186]]; console.log(isClockwise(poly)); let poly2 = [[618,186],[650,170],[701,179],[716,207],[708,247],[666,259],[637,246],[615,219]]; console.log(isClockwise(poly2));

我很确定这是对的。这似乎是有效的:-)

这些多边形看起来是这样的,如果你想知道的话:

找出y最小的顶点(如果有平手,则x最大)。假设顶点是A,列表中的前一个顶点是B,列表中的下一个顶点是c。现在计算AB和AC的叉乘的符号。

如何确定一个简单多边形的方向?在 常见问题:计算机。图形。算法。 维基百科的曲线定位。

一些建议的方法在非凸多边形(如新月形)的情况下会失败。这里有一个简单的方法,它可以用于非凸多边形(它甚至可以用于自相交的多边形,如数字8,告诉你它是否主要是顺时针)。

对边求和,(x2−x1)(y2 + y1)如果结果是正的,曲线是顺时针的,如果结果是负的,曲线是逆时针的。(结果是封闭面积的两倍,采用+/-惯例。)

point[0] = (5,0)   edge[0]: (6-5)(4+0) =   4
point[1] = (6,4)   edge[1]: (4-6)(5+4) = -18
point[2] = (4,5)   edge[2]: (1-4)(5+5) = -30
point[3] = (1,5)   edge[3]: (1-1)(0+5) =   0
point[4] = (1,0)   edge[4]: (5-1)(0+0) =   0
                                         ---
                                         -44  counter-clockwise

正如这篇维基百科文章中所解释的曲线方向,给定平面上的3个点p, q和r(即x和y坐标),您可以计算以下行列式的符号

如果行列式为负(即定向(p, q, r) < 0),则多边形是顺时针方向(CW)。如果行列式为正(即定向(p, q, r) > 0),则多边形是逆时针方向(CCW)。如果点p, q和r共线,行列式为零(即定向(p, q, r) == 0)。

在上面的公式中,由于我们使用的是齐次坐标,我们将1放在p, q和r的坐标前面。

虽然这些答案是正确的,但它们在数学上的强度比必要的要大。假设地图坐标,其中最北的点是地图上的最高点。找到最北的点,如果两个点相等,它是最北的,然后是最东的(这是lhf在他的答案中使用的点)。在你的观点中,

点[0]= (5,0)

点[1]= (6,4)

点[2]= (4,5)

点[3]= (1,5)

点[4]= (1,0)

If we assume that P2 is the most north then east point either the previous or next point determine clockwise, CW, or CCW. Since the most north point is on the north face, if the P1 (previous) to P2 moves east the direction is CW. In this case, it moves west, so the direction is CCW as the accepted answer says. If the previous point has no horizontal movement, then the same system applies to the next point, P3. If P3 is west of P2, it is, then the movement is CCW. If the P2 to P3 movement is east, it's west in this case, the movement is CW. Assume that nte, P2 in your data, is the most north then east point and the prv is the previous point, P1 in your data, and nxt is the next point, P3 in your data, and [0] is horizontal or east/west where west is less than east, and [1] is vertical.

if (nte[0] >= prv[0] && nxt[0] >= nte[0]) return(CW);
if (nte[0] <= prv[0] && nxt[0] <= nte[0]) return(CCW);
// Okay, it's not easy-peasy, so now, do the math
if (nte[0] * nxt[1] - nte[1] * nxt[0] - prv[0] * (nxt[1] - crt[1]) + prv[1] * (nxt[0] - nte[0]) >= 0) return(CCW); // For quadrant 3 return(CW)
return(CW) // For quadrant 3 return (CCW)

下面是基于这个答案的一个简单的Python 3实现(反过来,它是基于已接受答案中提出的解决方案)

def is_clockwise(points):
    # points is your list (or array) of 2d points.
    assert len(points) > 0
    s = 0.0
    for p1, p2 in zip(points, points[1:] + [points[0]]):
        s += (p2[0] - p1[0]) * (p2[1] + p1[1])
    return s > 0.0
