polygon element:  A type of element in a TNTmips vector object.  A polygon is defined by a list of line elements stored elsewhere, which can be retrieved and assembled to form a closed shape. 

Vector elements may cross-index their class attribute to a list containing the element drawing style, which may include polygon fill pattern, point symbol, line width or symbol/point size, RGB color, RGB label color, RGB fill color, label font number, label font size, label font zoom factor, label font style, and label rotation angle.
