convexHull method

Geometry convexHull()

Computes the smallest convex Polygon that contains all the points in the Geometry. This obviously applies only to Geometry s which contain 3 or more points; the results for degenerate cases are specified as follows:

Number of Points in argument Geometry Geometry class of result
0 empty GeometryCollection
1 Point
2 LineString
3 or more Polygon

@return the minimum-area convex polygon containing this Geometry' s points

Implementation

Geometry convexHull() {
  return ConvexHull(this).getConvexHull();
}
