Abstract
We propose an approach for computation of area and geometric moments for a 2D object with a spline curve boundary. The explicit formulae are obtained for area and low order moment calculation. The formulae use the advantage that the sequence of spline control points is cyclic. It allows us to reduce substantially the number of summands in them.
