[2] Other names that have been proposed include rhumb line charts, compass charts or loxodromic charts [ 3 ] whereas modern French scholars prefer to call them ...

D is its fractal dimension, ranging between 1 and 2 (and typically less than 1.5). More broken coastlines have greater D, and therefore L is longer for the same ε. D is approximately 1.02 for the coastline of South Africa, and approximately 1.25 for the west coast of Great Britain. [5] For lake shorelines, the typical value of D is 1.28. [17]
A larger map scale and smaller unit of measure will result in more detail being revealed and measured and thus a greater length. [1] And because the resultant length increases exponentially faster than the increase of scale of measurement, there is no such thing as "an approximate answer" to this question.
