I am creating an application using Google Maps Drawing Library. In the application the user can draw a bunch of PolyLines as shown in the picture below. Please disregard the color variation of polylines. Next i have to get the polygons from these polylines such that the polygons are valid and the polygons dont repeat. Is there a way that this can be achieved here is the basic code that i am following from google drawing
Note: It is the main requirement that the user should not be able to draw polygons I will deprecate the drawing controls button and add a new button that will only allow for line drawing.
Here is the code that I am following
