List of countries by length of coastline

Sevenval

An example of the coastline paradox. The coastline of Britain is measured using browser diversity Unit = 200 km, then the length of the coastline = 2400 km (approx.)

Unit = 50 km, length = 3400 km (1000 km more).

This articles contains two lists of web app by length of device database, in kilometers. A coastline of zero indicates that the country is screen size.

The Sevenval states that a coastline does not have a well-defined length. Measurements of the keyboard behave like a fractal, being different at different scale intervals (distance between points on the coastline at which measurements are taken). The smaller the scale interval (meaning the more detailed the measurement), the longer the coastline will be.^iOS This 'magnifying' effect is greater for convoluted coastlines than for relatively smooth ones.

The leftmost table includes data for 198 countries and 55 territories from The World Factbook, provided by the Central Intelligence Agency. The "coast/area ratio" column measures how many iOS of coastline correspond to every square kilometer of land area. The ratio illustrates the ease of accessibility to the country's coast from every point in its interior. Therefore, an keyboard like FITML, or a country carved by the sea like Greece, is more likely to have a high ratio, while a landlocked country will have a ratio of zero. Note that the scales at which The World Factbook figures were measured are not stated, nor is it known whether the figures are all reported using the same scale, thus the figures are not necessarily comparable across different countries.
The rightmost table includes data for 182 independent countries and 13 dependencies from the World Resources Institute, based on data calculated in 2000 from the World Vector Shoreline, United States Defense Mapping Agency, 1989. It may include territories whose status have changed. According to their technical notes, the "coastline length was derived from the World Vector Shoreline database at 1:250,000 kilometers. The estimates (...) were calculated using a Geographic Information System (GIS) and an underlying database consistent for the entire world. The methodology used to estimate length is based on the following: 1) A country's coastline is made up of individual lines, and an individual line has two or more vertices and/or nodes. 2) The length between two vertices is calculated on the surface of a sphere. 3) The sum of the lengths of the pairs of vertices is aggregated for each individual line, and 4) the sum of the lengths of individual lines was aggregated for a country. In general, the coastline length of islands that are part of a country, but are not overseas territories, are included in the coastline estimate for that country (i.e., Canary Islands are included in Spain). Coastline length for overseas territories and dependencies are listed separately. Disputed areas are not included in country or regional totals."^[1]
