Stroke arc to linestring.

Stroke an arc of a circle to a linestring based on a center point, radius, start angle and end angle, all angles in degrees.

If the dfMaxAngleStepSizeDegrees is zero, then a default value will be used. This is currently 4 degrees unless the user has overridden the value with the OGR_ARC_STEPSIZE configuration variable.

OGRGeometry **  ppoReturn,
int  nBytes = -1,
int *  pnBytesConsumed = NULL 
)
static

Create a geometry object of the appropriate type from it's FGF (FDO Geometry Format) binary representation.

Also note that this is a static method, and that there is no need to instantiate an OGRGeometryFactory object.

The C function OGR_G_CreateFromFgf() is the same as this method.

Parameters
pabyDatapointer to the input BLOB data.
poSRpointer to the spatial reference to be assigned to the created geometry object. This may be NULL.
ppoReturnthe newly created geometry object will be assigned to the indicated pointer on return. This will be NULL in case of failure.
nBytesthe number of bytes available in pabyData.
pnBytesConsumedif not NULL, it will be set to the number of bytes consumed (at most nBytes).
Returns
OGRERR_NONE if all goes well, otherwise any of OGRERR_NOT_ENOUGH_DATA, OGRERR_UNSUPPORTED_GEOMETRY_TYPE, or OGRERR_CORRUPT_DATA may be returned.

OGRGeometry * OGRGeometryFactory::createFromGML ( const char *  pszData)
static

Create geometry from GML.

This method translates a fragment of GML containing only the geometry portion into a corresponding OGRGeometry. There are many limitations on the forms of GML geometries supported by this parser, but they are too numerous to list here.

The following GML2 elements are parsed : Point, LineString, Polygon, MultiPoint, MultiLineString, MultiPolygon, MultiGeometry.

(OGR >= 1.8.0) The following GML3 elements are parsed : Surface, MultiSurface, PolygonPatch, Triangle, Rectangle, Curve, MultiCurve, LineStringSegment, Arc, Circle, CompositeSurface, OrientableSurface, Solid, Tin, TriangulatedSurface.

Arc and Circle elements are stroked to linestring, by using a 4 degrees step, unless the user has overridden the value with the OGR_ARC_STEPSIZE configuration variable.

The C function OGR_G_CreateFromGML() is the same as this method.

Parameters
pszDataThe GML fragment for the geometry.
Returns
a geometry on succes, or NULL on error.

OGRErr OGRGeometryFactory::createFromWkb ( unsigned char *  pabyData,
OGRSpatialReference poSR,
OGRGeometry **  ppoReturn,
int  nBytes = -1 
)
static

Create a geometry object of the appropriate type from it's well known binary representation.

Note that if nBytes is passed as zero, no checking can be done on whether the pabyData is sufficient. This can result in a crash if the input data is corrupt. This function returns no indication of the number of bytes from the data source actually used to represent the returned geometry object. Use OGRGeometry::WkbSize() on the returned geometry to establish the number of bytes it required in WKB format.

Also note that this is a static method, and that there is no need to instantiate an OGRGeometryFactory object.

The C function OGR_G_CreateFromWkb() is the same as this method.

Parameters
pabyDatapointer to the input BLOB data.
poSRpointer to the spatial reference to be assigned to the created geometry object. This may be NULL.
ppoReturnthe newly created geometry object will be assigned to the indicated pointer on return. This will be NULL in case of failure. If not NULL, *ppoReturn should be freed with OGRGeometryFactory::destroyGeometry() after use.
nBytesthe number of bytes available in pabyData, or -1 if it isn't known.
Returns
OGRERR_NONE if all goes well, otherwise any of OGRERR_NOT_ENOUGH_DATA, OGRERR_UNSUPPORTED_GEOMETRY_TYPE, or OGRERR_CORRUPT_DATA may be returned.

OGRErr OGRGeometryFactory::createFromWkt ( char **  ppszData,
OGRSpatialReference poSR,
OGRGeometry **  ppoReturn 
)
static

Create a geometry object of the appropriate type from it's well known text representation.

The C function OGR_G_CreateFromWkt() is the same as this method.

Parameters
ppszDatainput zero terminated string containing well known text representation of the geometry to be created. The pointer is updated to point just beyond that last character consumed.
poSRpointer to the spatial reference to be assigned to the created geometry object. This may be NULL.
ppoReturnthe newly created geometry object will be assigned to the indicated pointer on return. This will be NULL if the method fails. If not NULL, *ppoReturn should be freed with OGRGeometryFactory::destroyGeometry() after use.

Example:

   const char* wkt= "POINT(0 0)";
   // cast because OGR_G_CreateFromWkt will move the pointer 
   char* pszWkt = (char*) wkt;
   OGRSpatialReferenceH ref = OSRNewSpatialReference(NULL);
   OGRGeometryH new_geom;
   OGRErr err = OGR_G_CreateFromWkt(&pszWkt, ref, &new_geom);
 
Returns
OGRERR_NONE if all goes well, otherwise any of OGRERR_NOT_ENOUGH_DATA, OGRERR_UNSUPPORTED_GEOMETRY_TYPE, or OGRERR_CORRUPT_DATA may be returned.

OGRGeometry * OGRGeometryFactory::createGeometry ( OGRwkbGeometryType  eGeometryType)
static

Create an empty geometry of desired type.

This is equivalent to allocating the desired geometry with new, but the allocation is guaranteed to take place in the context of the GDAL/OGR heap.

This method is the same as the C function OGR_G_CreateGeometry().

Parameters
eGeometryTypethe type code of the geometry class to be instantiated.
Returns
the newly create geometry or NULL on failure. Should be freed with OGRGeometryFactory::destroyGeometry() after use.

Destroy geometry object.

Equivalent to invoking delete on a geometry, but it guaranteed to take place within the context of the GDAL/OGR heap.

This method is the same as the C function OGR_G_DestroyGeometry().

Parameters
poGeomthe geometry to deallocate.

OGRGeometry * OGRGeometryFactory::forceToLineString ( OGRGeometry poGeom,
bool  bOnlyInOrder = true 
)
static

Convert to line string.

Tries to force the provided geometry to be a line string. Currently this just effects a change on multilinestrings. The passed in geometry is consumed and a new one returned (or potentially the same one).

Parameters
poGeomthe input geometry - ownership is passed to the method.
bOnlyInOrderflag that, if set to FALSE, indicate that the order of points in a linestring might be reversed if it enables to match the extremity of another linestring. If set to TRUE, the start of a linestring must match the end of another linestring.
Returns
new geometry.

static

Convert to multilinestring.

Tries to force the provided geometry to be a multilinestring.

  • linestrings are placed in a multilinestring.
  • geometry collections will be converted to multilinestring if they only contain linestrings.
  • polygons will be changed to a collection of linestrings (one per ring).

The passed in geometry is consumed and a new one returned (or potentially the same one).

OGRGeometry * OGRGeometryFactory::organizePolygons ( OGRGeometry **  papoPolygons,
int  nPolygonCount,
int *  pbIsValidGeometry,
const char **  papszOptions = NULL 
)
static

Organize polygons based on geometries.

Analyse a set of rings (passed as simple polygons), and based on a geometric analysis convert them into a polygon with inner rings, (or a MultiPolygon if dealing with more than one polygon) that follow the OGC Simple Feature specification.

All the input geometries must be OGRPolygons with only a valid exterior ring (at least 4 points) and no interior rings.

The passed in geometries become the responsibility of the method, but the papoPolygons "pointer array" remains owned by the caller.

For faster computation, a polygon is considered to be inside another one if a single point of its external ring is included into the other one. (unless 'OGR_DEBUG_ORGANIZE_POLYGONS' configuration option is set to TRUE. In that case, a slower algorithm that tests exact topological relationships is used if GEOS is available.)

In cases where a big number of polygons is passed to this function, the default processing may be really slow. You can skip the processing by adding METHOD=SKIP to the option list (the result of the function will be a multi-polygon with all polygons as toplevel polygons) or only make it analyze counterclockwise polygons by adding METHOD=ONLY_CCW to the option list if you can assume that the outline of holes is counterclockwise defined (this is the convention for example in shapefiles, Personal Geodatabases or File Geodatabases).

For FileGDB, in most cases, but not always, a faster method than ONLY_CCW can be used. It is CCW_INNER_JUST_AFTER_CW_OUTER. When using it, inner rings are assumed to be counterclockwise oriented, and following immediately the outer ring (clockwise oriented) that they belong to. If that assumption is not met, an inner ring could be attached to the wrong outer ring, so this method must be used with care.

If the OGR_ORGANIZE_POLYGONS configuration option is defined, its value will override the value of the METHOD option of papszOptions (useful to modify the behaviour of the shapefile driver)

Parameters
papoPolygonsarray of geometry pointers - should all be OGRPolygons. Ownership of the geometries is passed, but not of the array itself.
nPolygonCountnumber of items in papoPolygons
pbIsValidGeometryvalue will be set TRUE if result is valid or FALSE otherwise.
papszOptionsa list of strings for passing options
Returns
a single resulting geometry (either OGRPolygon or OGRMultiPolygon).
