JTS is developed under the Java JDK 1.4 platform. It is 100% pure Java. It will run on all more recent JDKs as well. [6] JTS has been ported to the .NET Framework as the Net Topology Suite. A JTS subset has been ported to C++, with entry points declared as C interfaces, as the GEOS library.
A winding number of 0 means the point is outside the polygon; other values indicate the point is inside the polygon. An improved algorithm to calculate the winding number was developed by Dan Sunday in 2001. [6] It does not use angles in calculations, nor any trigonometry, and functions exactly the same as the ray casting algorithms described ...
An important special case, in which the points are given in the order of traversal of a simple polygon's boundary, is described later in a separate subsection. If not all points are on the same line, then their convex hull is a convex polygon whose vertices are some of the points in the input set. Its most common representation is the list of ...
Another special case is the point in polygon problem, in which one needs to determine whether a point is inside, outside, or on the boundary of a single polygon. In many applications, one needs to determine the location of several different points with respect to the same partition of the space.
The Euclidean minimum spanning tree of a set of points is a subset of the Delaunay triangulation of the same points, [22] and this can be exploited to compute it efficiently. For modelling terrain or other objects given a point cloud, the Delaunay triangulation gives a nice set of triangles to use as polygons in the model. In particular, the ...
The first polygon set comprises outlines of the United Kingdom and Ireland. The second polygon set comprises the four large inward-pointing arrows. In each example, the areas resulting from the GPC operation between the two sets of polygons are rendered in colour. This example shows difference between the two sets: Example of GPC Difference

Point in polygon: Decide whether a point is inside or outside a given polygon. In many applications this problem is treated as a single-shot one, i.e., belonging to the first class. For example, in many applications of computer graphics a common problem is to find which area on the screen is clicked by a pointer. However, in some applications ...
