At the moment the area (in m^2) of polygons must be created manually using QGIS and following these instructions (http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/23355/how-to-calculate-polygon-areas-in-qgis: "This can also be done with Vector|Geometry Tools|Add/export geometry columns, which creates a new shapefile with area and perimeter (or length) columns added".)

It would be nice to figure out how to do this from the command line.

The repo now includes bin/shape2area.py which can calculate areas of polygons. Not yet integrated into the Makefile
