org.deegree.geometry.multi
Interface MultiGeometry<T extends Geometry>

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the contained geometries

All Superinterfaces:

Collection<T>, Geometry, GMLObject, Iterable<T>, List<T>

All Known Subinterfaces:

MultiCurve, MultiLineString, MultiPoint, MultiPolygon, MultiSolid, MultiSurface

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultMultiCurve, DefaultMultiGeometry, DefaultMultiLineString, DefaultMultiPoint, DefaultMultiPolygon, DefaultMultiSolid, DefaultMultiSurface

public interface MultiGeometry<T extends Geometry>
extends Geometry, List<T>

Basic aggregation type for Geometry objects.

In contrast to a CompositeGeometry, a MultiGeometry has no constraints on the topological relations between the contained geometries, i.e. their interiors may intersect.
