public abstract class Geometry
A representation of a planar, linear vector geometry.
GeometryCollection
s would be useful,
GeometryCollection
s are not supported as arguments to binary
predicates (other than convexHull
) or the relate
method.
Point
, LineString
, or
Polygon
will be returned if the result contains a single
element; otherwise, a MultiPoint
, MultiLineString
,
or MultiPolygon
will be returned. If the result is
heterogeneous a GeometryCollection
will be returned.
Because it is not clear at this time what semantics for set-theoretic
methods involving GeometryCollection
s would be useful,
GeometryCollections
are not supported as arguments to the set-theoretic methods.
Geometry
.
The SFS does not specify an unambiguous representation of a given point set
returned from a spatial analysis method. One goal of JTS is to make this
specification precise and unambiguous. JTS will use a canonical form for
Geometry
s returned from spatial analysis methods. The canonical
form is a Geometry
which is simple and noded:
isSimple
.
LineString
s. It
means that all intersection points on LineString
s will be
present as endpoints of LineString
s in the result.
Geometry
s. These new points arise from intersections between line segments in the
edges of the input Geometry
s. In the general case it is not
possible to represent constructed points exactly. This is due to the fact
that the coordinates of an intersection point may contain twice as many bits
of precision as the coordinates of the input line segments. In order to
represent these constructed points explicitly, JTS must truncate them to fit
the PrecisionModel
. Unfortunately, truncating coordinates moves them slightly. Line segments which would not be coincident in the exact result may become coincident in the truncated representation. This in turn leads to "topology collapses" -- situations where a computed element has a lower dimension than it would in the exact result.
When JTS detects topology collapses during the computation of spatial analysis methods, it will throw an exception. If possible the exception will report the location of the collapse.
equalsExact(Geometry)
method.
This implements a comparison based on exact, structural pointwise
equality.
The equals(Object)
is a synonym for this method,
to provide structural equality semantics for
use in Java collections.
It is important to note that structural pointwise equality
is easily affected by things like
ring order and component order. In many situations
it will be desirable to normalize geometries before
comparing them (using the norm()
or normalize()
methods).
equalsNorm(Geometry)
is provided
as a convenience method to compute equality over
normalized geometries, but it is expensive to use.
Finally, equalsExact(Geometry, double)
allows using a tolerance value for point comparison.
equalsTopo(Geometry)
method.
To support the SFS naming convention, the method
equals(Geometry)
is also provided as a synonym.
However, due to the potential for confusion with equals(Geometry)
its use is discouraged.
Since #equals(Object) and #hashCode are overridden, Geometries can be used effectively in Java collections.

The union of two geometries of different dimension produces a result
geometry of dimension equal to the maximum dimension of the input
geometries. The result geometry may be a heterogenous
GeometryCollection
.
Unioning LineString
s has the effect of
noding and dissolving the input linework. In this context
"noding" means that there will be a node or endpoint in the result for
every endpoint or line segment crossing in the input. "Dissolving" means
that any duplicate (i.e. coincident) line segments or portions of line
segments will be reduced to a single line segment in the result.
If merged linework is required, the LineMerger
class can be used.

Geometry
to normal form (or
canonical form ). Normal form is a unique representation for Geometry
s. It can be used to test whether two Geometry
s are equal
in a way that is independent of the ordering of the coordinates within
them. Normal form equality is a stronger condition than topological
equality, but weaker than pointwise equality. The definitions for normal
form use the standard lexicographical ordering for coordinates. "Sorted in
order of coordinates" means the obvious extension of this ordering to
sequences of coordinates.
NOTE that this method mutates the value of this geometry in-place. If this is not safe and/or wanted, the geometry should be cloned prior to normalization.
