Properties

Area

Gets a nullable double value that indicates the area of this DbGeography value, which may be null if this value does not represent a surface.
CoordinateSystemId

Gets the identifier associated with the coordinate system.
DefaultCoordinateSystemId

Gets the default coordinate system id (SRID) for geography values (WGS 84).
Dimension

Gets the dimension of the given DbGeography value or, if the value is a collections, the largest element dimension.
