I am trying to get the land area for streets, but I only have the streets in lines (polylines) and do not know how to get the land area for them. Is there anyone who can provide any information on this? I really appreciate that!
Thanks,

You can only get the lengths of the streets.
Should you require an approximation/estimate of their area, you could rely on length*width = area
assuming that you can provide a plausible estimate of street width for your area.
there are two ways according to my experience:
1. If you have the width data for each segment, then you just to make buffer area and calculate the road area.
2. I agree to Dan's comment above, for approximation it can be used.
Hi Dan, Thank you so much for your help! I think this is the best way we can try now.
