Class IndexedPointInAreaLocator

    java.lang.Object
      com.vividsolutions.jts.algorithm.locate.IndexedPointInAreaLocator

All Implemented Interfaces:
  PointOnGeometryLocator

    public class IndexedPointInAreaLocator

extends java.lang.Object
implements PointOnGeometryLocator

Determines the `Location` of `Coordinate`s relative to a `Polygonal` geometry, using indexing for efficiency. This algorithm is suitable for use in cases where many points will be tested against a given area.
