Odd Shape Area Calculator — Irregular Garden Spaces

Estimate the area of irregularly shaped garden spaces.

How We Calculate This

The offset (trapezoidal) method divides the area into strips. Each strip area = average of two widths x strip length.

The total area is the sum of all strip areas. This method works well for most curved or irregular shapes.

The average width method simply multiplies the mean of all width measurements by the total length.
