Detailed Description

Counts the number of segments crossed by a horizontal ray extending to the right from a given point, in an incremental fashion.

This can be used to determine whether a point lies in a polygonal geometry. The class determines the situation where the point lies exactly on a segment. When being used for Point-In-Polygon determination, this case allows short-circuiting the evaluation.

This class handles polygonal geometries with any number of shells and holes. The orientation of the shell and hole rings is unimportant. In order to compute a correct location for a given polygonal geometry, it is essential that all segments are counted which

The only exception is when the point-on-segment situation is detected, in which case no further processing is required. The implication of the above rule is that segments which can be a priori determined to not touch the ray (i.e. by a test of their bounding box or Y-extent) do not need to be counted. This allows for optimization by indexing.

Member Function Documentation

◆ countSegment()

void geos::algorithm::RayCrossingCounterDD::countSegment ( const geom::Coordinate p1,
const geom::Coordinate p2 
)

Counts a segment.

Parameters
p1an endpoint of the segment
p2another endpoint of the segment

◆ getLocation()

geom::Location geos::algorithm::RayCrossingCounterDD::getLocation ( )

Gets the Location of the point relative to the ring, polygon or multipolygon from which the processed segments were provided.

This method only determines the correct location if all relevant segments must have been processed.

Returns
the Location of the point

◆ isOnSegment()

bool geos::algorithm::RayCrossingCounterDD::isOnSegment ( )
inline

Reports whether the point lies exactly on one of the supplied segments.

This method may be called at any time as segments are processed. If the result of this method is true, no further segments need be supplied, since the result will never change again.

Returns
true if the point lies exactly on a segment

◆ isPointInPolygon()

bool geos::algorithm::RayCrossingCounterDD::isPointInPolygon ( )

Tests whether the point lies in or on the ring, polygon or multipolygon from which the processed segments were provided.

This method only determines the correct location if all relevant segments must have been processed.

Returns
true if the point lies in or on the supplied polygon

◆ locatePointInRing()

static geom::Location geos::algorithm::RayCrossingCounterDD::locatePointInRing ( const geom::Coordinate p,
const geom::CoordinateSequence ring 
)
static

Determines the Location of a point in a ring. This method is an exemplar of how to use this class.

Parameters
pthe point to test
ringan array of Coordinates forming a ring
Returns
the location of the point in the ring

◆ orientationIndex()

static int geos::algorithm::RayCrossingCounterDD::orientationIndex ( const geom::Coordinate p1,
const geom::Coordinate p2,
const geom::Coordinate q 
)
static

Returns the index of the direction of the point q relative to a vector specified by p1-p2.

Parameters
p1the origin point of the vector
p2the final point of the vector
qthe point to compute the direction to
Returns
1 if q is counter-clockwise (left) from p1-p2
-1 if q is clockwise (right) from p1-p2
0 if q is collinear with p1-p2
