Class MultiPolygon
A MultiPolygon is a MultiSurface object composed of Polygon elements.
MultiPolygon Examples
- On a region map, a
MultiPolygoncould represent a system of lakes.
MultiPolygon Assertions
- A
MultiPolygonhas no twoPolygonelements with interiors that intersect. - A
MultiPolygonhas no twoPolygonelements that cross (crossing is also forbidden by the previous assertion), or that touch at an infinite number of points. - A
MultiPolygonmay not have cut lines, spikes, or punctures. AMultiPolygonis a regular, closed point set. - A
MultiPolygonthat has more than onePolygonhas an interior that is not connected. The number of connected components of the interior of aMultiPolygonis equal to the number ofPolygonvalues in theMultiPolygon.
MultiPolygon Properties
- A
MultiPolygonis a two-dimensional geometry. - A
MultiPolygonboundary is a set of closed curves (LineStringvalues) corresponding to the boundaries of itsPolygonelements. - Each
Curvein the boundary of theMultiPolygonis in the boundary of exactly onePolygonelement. - Every
Curvein the boundary of anPolygonelement is in the boundary of theMultiPolygon.
