Method Detail

getSRSName

java.lang.String getSRSName()

Returns the name of the Spatial Reference System (SRS)

Returns:

Null if the SRS is unspecified.

getId

java.lang.String getId()

Returns the Id of this geometry, presumably specified with gid attribute.

Returns:

Null if no Id attribute is specified.

getCoordinateTupleIterator

CoordinateTupleIterator getCoordinateTupleIterator()

A convenience method to gain access to geometry coordinates.

Returns:

Iterator to coordinate tuples. It is never null.

getInnerBoundaryIterator

GeometryIterator getInnerBoundaryIterator()

A convenience method to gain access to inner boundaries if available.

Returns:

Iterator to inner boundaries. It is never null.
