As per the OGC SFS specification, the Polygons in a MultiPolygon may not overlap, and may only touch at single points. This allows the topological point-set semantics to be well-defined.

public MultiPolygon(Polygon[] polygons, PrecisionModel precisionModel, int SRID)

Constructs a MultiPolygon.

Parameters:: polygons - polygons the Polygons for this MultiPolygon , or null or an empty array to create the empty geometry. Elements may be empty Polygons, but not null s. The polygons must conform to the assertions specified in the OpenGIS Simple Features Specification for SQL .; precisionModel - precisionModel the specification of the grid of allowable points for this MultiPolygon; SRID - SRID the ID of the Spatial Reference System used by this MultiPolygon

Deprecation:: Use GeometryFactory instead

public MultiPolygon(Polygon[] polygons, GeometryFactory factory)

Parameters:: polygons - polygons the Polygons for this MultiPolygon, or null or an empty array to create the empty geometry. Elements may be empty Polygons, but not nulls. The polygons must conform to the assertions specified in the OpenGIS Simple Features Specification for SQL.

public int getDimension()

public int getBoundaryDimension()

public String getGeometryType()

public Geometry getBoundary()

Computes the boundary of this geometry

See also:: Geometry#getBoundary

Returns:: a lineal geometry (which may be empty)

public boolean equalsExact(Geometry other, double tolerance)

public MultiPolygon reverse()

Creates a MultiPolygon with every component reversed. The order of the components in the collection are not reversed.

Returns:: a MultiPolygon in the reverse order
