hi list,

i would like to know how a centroid is defined and calculated. of course it is a
point within a closed boundary. but how is the position of the centroid
defined? is it estimated randomly? is it the point of gravity - but then - what
happens if the polygon is U-shaped?

thank you for helping
martin
