Provides access to members for constructing new geometries based upon topological relationships between existing geometries.

Superseded By

ITopologicalOperator5

Remarks

Buffer, Clip, and Simplify are the only methods of ITopologicalOperator supported on GeometryBags.

ITopologicalOperator methods must be applied on high-level geometries only. High-Level geometries are point, multipoint, polyline and polygon. To use this interface with low-level geometries such as segments (Line, Circular Arc, Elliptic Arc, Bezier Curve), paths or rings, they must be wrapped into high-level geometry types.

For multipatch geometries, generally the footprint or envelope is used.

Every Geometry created within ArcGIS should be assigned a spatial reference. Always attach well-defined spatial references to new geometries. This improves processing efficiency, in particular, when using ITopologicalOperator on geometries that contain curved segments (circular arcs, bezier curves, elliptical arcs). New geometries include any geometry that is created in memory. It does not matter whether it will be stored in a feature class or not. Well-defined as applied to a spatial reference means that it not only has its coordinate system (projection) defined, but also its coordinate grid. The coordinate grid consists of the xy domain, xy resolution, and xy cluster tolerance properties of a spatial reference. If the Geometry includes z or m values, the z or m domains, z or m resolutions, and z or m cluster tolerance properties must also be defined. The cluster tolerance and resolutions can be quickly and easily set using SetDefault methods on ISpatialReferenceResolution and ISpatialReferenceTolerance interfaces.

Method Detail

isSimple

boolean isSimple()
                 throws IOException,
                        AutomationException

Indicates whether this geometry is known (or assumed) to be topologically correct, after explicitly determining this if the geometry is not already known (or assumed) to be simple.

Description

Returns TRUE if the geometry is topologically Simple (refer to the discussion for the Simplify method). If the geometry is not Simple, it may be necessary to call Simplify to enforce topological consistency. Editing a geometry can change the IsSimple state of the geometry.

Remarks

ITopologicalOperator methods must be applied on high-level geometries only. High-Level geometries are point, multipoint, polyline and polygon. To use this method with low-level geometries such as segments (Line, Circular Arc, Elliptic Arc, Bézier Curve), paths or rings, they must be wrapped into high-level geometries types.

The xy cluster tolerance value of the geometry's associated spatial reference is used by this method. If the goal of this method is to determine if a geometry can be persisted in an sde (or other integer-based) layer without alteration, you may wish to use the minimum xy cluster tolerance value (ISpatialReferenceTolerance::SetMinimumXYTolerance) before applying this method (don't forget to set it back).

This method does not support GeometryBags.

Supported Platforms

Returns:

The isSimple

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

isKnownSimple

boolean isKnownSimple()
                      throws IOException,
                             AutomationException

Indicates whether this geometry is known (or assumed) to be topologically correct.

Description

Returns TRUE when the geometry is aware that it is Simple. IsKnownSimple may return FALSE even if the geometry is simple as long as the geometry is not aware of its IsSimple state. Calling either IsSimple or Simplify makes the IsSimple state known to the geometry. Topologically altering the geometry makes the IsKnownSimple state FALSE until the IsSimple state is again checked.

Remarks

Here is the status of the IsKnownSimple flag in some common situations:

IsKnownSimple = 'False'
- A non-empty newly created geometry. For example, creating a polygon using IPointCollection sets the flag IsKnownSimple = 'false' on that geometry.
- Geometry after projection (IGeometry::Project )
- Geometry after generalization (IPolycurve::Generalize ) or smoothing(IPolycurve::Smooth )
- …

IsKnownSimple = 'True'
- A geometry coming directly from a feature class
- An empty geometry
- Output geometry of any method on ITopologicalOperator
- …

This method does not support GeometryBags.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

simplify

void simplify()
              throws IOException,
                     AutomationException

Makes this geometry topologically correct.

Description

Simplify permanently alters the input geometry, making its definition "topologically legal" with respect to its geometry type:

• For Points, Simplify does nothing. A point has no constraints on the values of its coordinates.
• For Multipoints, Simplify snaps all X, Y, Z, and M coordinates to the grid of the associated spatial reference, then removes identical points. A point is identical to another point when the two have identical X and Y coordinates (after snapping), and when attributes for which it is aware are identical to the attributes for which the other point is aware. For example, if both points are Z aware, the Z coordinate values must be identical.
• For Polylines, Simplify has two variations: planar and non-planar. By default, polylines that are not M-aware are simplified in a planar manner: all overlapping segments are reduced to a single segment, and segments are split at intersection points. Output paths are created for connected sequences of segments. Input segment orientation is preserved where possible, but segments in the interior of a path will be reoriented if necessary. Polylines that are M-aware use non-planar simplification: 1. Overlaps and self-intersections are preserved, but zero length segments are removed, 2. Segment orientations are adjusted so that the 'to' point of segment I is identical to (considering vertex attributes) the 'from' point of Segment I+1, 3. New paths are created where segments are not connected, 4. Existing paths are merged where only two of them meet at a segment endpoint.
• For Polygons, Simplify identifies an interior and exterior for the polygon, then modifies the polygon structure to be consistent with that determination. The default methodology for identifying interior and exterior is: 1. Remove all dangling sequences of segments, 2. Identify the largest legal rings, add them to the output version of the polygon, then delete them from the working version, 3. Repeat. If this approach ends up removing too many segments for your application, consider using IPolygon4::SimplifyEx with the XOR parameter set to TRUE. At the end of Simplify, no rings will overlap, no self intersection will occur (except in certain circumstances) and, in general, an arbitrary point can always be classified unambiguously as either outside, on the boundary of, or inside the polygon.

The XY tolerance property of the geometry's associated spatial reference is used during the simplify operation for polylines and polygons.

Remarks

This method first looks at the ITopologicalOperator::IsKnownSimple flag before starting processing. If the flag is 'true' then operation is interrupted and the geometry is considered simple. If the flag is 'false' then the geometry consistency is checked and the geometry is updated as needed.

ITopologicalOperator methods must be applied on high-level geometries only. High-Level geometries are point, multipoint, polyline and polygon. To use this method with low-level geometries such as segments (Line, Circular Arc, Elliptic Arc, Bézier Curve), paths or rings, they must be wrapped into high-level geometries types.

                        AutomationException

Constructs a polygon that is the locus of points at a distance less than or equal to a specified distance from this geometry.

Remarks

The buffer distance is in the same units as the source shape that is being buffered.

A negative distance can be specified to produce a buffer inside the original polygon. This cannot be used with polyline. ITopologicalOperator methods must be applied on top-level geometries only. Top-Level geometries are point, multipoint, polyline and polygon. To use this method with segments (Line, Circular Arc, Elliptic Arc, Bézier Curve), paths or rings, they must be wrapped with a top-level type.

Description

The ConvexHull of a geometry is the minimal bounding polygon such that all outer angles are convex. The ConvexHull of a point is the point itself.

Remarks

ITopologicalOperator methods must be applied on high-level geometries only. High-Level geometries are point, multipoint, polyline and polygon. To use this method with low-level geometries such as segments (Line, Circular Arc, Elliptic Arc, Bézier Curve), paths or rings, they must be wrapped into high-level geometries types.

                           AutomationException

Constructs the geometry that is the set-theoretic intersection of the input geometries. Use different resultDimension values to generate results of different dimensions.

Description

The Intersection of two Geometries of the same Dimension is a Geometry containing only the regions of overlap between the original geometries.

Remarks

Intersection is basically an AND between input geometries.

ITopologicalOperator methods must be applied on high-level geometries only. High-Level geometries are point, multipoint, polyline and polygon.

To use this method with low-level geometries such as segments (Line, Circular Arc, Elliptic Arc, Bézier Curve), paths or rings, they must be wrapped into high-level geometries types.

When a polyline/polygon is cut, it is split where it intersects the cutter polyline. Each piece is classified as ‘left of’ or ‘right of’ the cutter. This classification is based on the orientation of the cutter line. Parts of the target polyline that do not intersect the cutting polyline are returned as part of the ‘right of’ result for that input polyline. If a geometry is not cut, the left geometry will be empty.

When using a multi-part polyline to cut a single ring of a polyline, the orientation of the polyline paths is important. The cut piece of the ring must be on the same side of each cutting path as defined by the orientation of each path.
