Length

Calculate the length of a line in meters.
POST /compute/v0/length

Request Body

chainId
number
required
Target chain ID (e.g., 84532 for Base Sepolia, 8453 for Base).
geometry
Input
required
The line geometry to measure.
schema
string
required
EAS schema UID to issue the attestation against.
recipient
string
Ethereum address to receive the attestation. Defaults to zero address if not provided.

Example Request

curl -X POST https://api.astral.global/compute/v0/length \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "chainId": 84532,
    "geometry": "0xline...",
    "schema": "0xschema...",
    "recipient": "0xdef456..."
  }'

Example Response

{
  "result": 2345.67,
  "units": "meters",
  "operation": "length",
  "timestamp": 1706400000,
  "inputRefs": [
    "0xline..."

    "schema": "0x...",
    "attester": "0x...",
    "recipient": "0xdef456...",
    "data": "0x...",
    "signature": "0x..."
  },
  "delegatedAttestation": {
    "signature": "0x...",
    "attester": "0x...",
    "deadline": 1706403600
  }
}

Notes

  • Uses PostGIS ST_Length function with geodetic calculation
  • Result is in meters with centimeter precision
  • Valid for LineString and MultiLineString geometries
