I have a polygon (shp or minfo format) assuming it has an area of 5 square miles. Need to reduce the area by 70% resulting to 3.5 square miles now but still keeping somewhat the outline but of a smaller size (like polygon output shrinks) due to the applied percentage. SCALER transformer is closed to what I need but it only applies the percentage to the total perimeter of the polygon and not the area. Any transformer that could do this?

Set the square root of 0.7 as the Scale Factor in the Scaler.

@sqrt(0.7)

 

Scale_Factor_sqrt


Thanks for your reply on this. Recommended setting works and have verified the calculated area and retained shape of the polygon (reduced one). Appreciate the help.image
