How to generate hexagons in javascript based on the center point coordinates and radius length
function drawHexagon(centerPointLatitude, centerPointLongitude, radiusLength) {
const radius = radiusLength / 6371;
const angle = (2 * Math.PI) / 6; // 2PI (360 degree) divded by 6 points of the hexagon shape
const hexagon = [];
for (var i = 0; i < 6; i++) {
const longitude = centerPointLongitude + radius * Math.cos(angle * i);
const latitude = centerPointLatitude + radius * Math.sin(angle * i);
hexagon.push([longitude, latitude]);
}
// close the polygon adding the initial point
hexagon.push(hexagon[0]);
return hexagon;
}
drawHexagon(44.4268, 26.1024, 10);
