Method Detail

getMatCoordinate

double getMatCoordinate(com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.Coordinate c,
                        double tolerance)
                        throws MGeometryException

Returns the measure value at the Coordinate

Parameters:

c - the Coordinate for which the measure value is sought

tolerance - distance to the MGeometry within which Coordinate c has to lie

Returns:

the measure value if Coordinate c is within tolerance of the Geometry, else Double.NaN

When the geometry is a ring or is self-intersecting more coordinates may be determined by one coordinate. In that case, the lowest measure is returned.

Throws:

MGeometryException - when this MGeometry is not monotone

measureOnLength

void measureOnLength(boolean keepBeginMeasure)

Builds measures along the Geometry based on the length from the beginning (first coordinate) of the Geometry.

Parameters:

keepBeginMeasure - - if true, the measure of the first coordinate is maintained and used as start value, unless this measure is Double.NaN

getCoordinateAtM

com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.Coordinate getCoordinateAtM(double m)
                                                        throws MGeometryException

Returns the Coordinate along the Geometry at the measure value

Parameters:

m - measure value

Returns:

the Coordinate if m is on the MGeometry otherwise null

Throws:

MGeometryException - when MGeometry is not monotone

getCoordinatesBetween

com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.CoordinateSequence[] getCoordinatesBetween(double begin,
                                                                       double end)
                                                                       throws MGeometryException

Returns the coordinatesequence(s) containing all coordinates between the begin and end measures.

Parameters:

begin - begin measure

end - end measure

Returns:

an array containing all coordinatesequences in order between begin and end. Each CoordinateSequence covers a contiguous stretch of the MGeometry.

Throws:

MGeometryException - when this MGeometry is not monotone

getFactory

com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.GeometryFactory getFactory()

Returns the GeometryFactory of the MGeometry

Returns:

the GeometryFactory of this MGeometry

getMinM

double getMinM()

Returns the minimum M-value of the MGeometry

Returns:

the minimum M-value

getMaxM

double getMaxM()

Returns the maximum M-value of the MGeometry

Returns:

the maximum M-value

isMonotone

boolean isMonotone(boolean strict)

Determine whether the LRS measures (not the x,y,z coordinates) in the Coordinate sequence of the geometry is Monotone. Monotone implies that all measures in a sequence of coordinates are consecutively increasing, decreasing or equal according to the definition of the implementing geometry. Monotonicity is a pre-condition for most operations on MGeometries. The following are examples on Monotone measure sequences on a line string:

• [0,1,2,3,4] - Monotone Increasing
• [4,3,2,1] - Monotone Decreasing
• [0,1,1,2,3] - Non-strict Monotone Increasing
• [5,3,3,0] - Non-strict Monotone Decreasing

Returns:

true if the coordinates in the CoordinateSequence of the geometry are monotone.

asGeometry

com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.Geometry asGeometry()

Returns this MGeometry as a Geometry.

Modifying the returned Geometry will result in internal state changes.

Returns:

this object as a Geometry.
