Detailed Description

A geometry is the spatial representation of a feature.

QgsGeometry acts as a generic container for geometry objects. QgsGeometry objects are implicitly shared, so making copies of geometries is inexpensive. The geometry container class can also be stored inside a QVariant object.

The actual geometry representation is stored as a QgsAbstractGeometry within the container, and can be accessed via the get() method or set using the set() method. This gives access to the underlying raw geometry primitive, such as the point, line, polygon, curve or other geometry subclasses.

Note: QgsGeometry objects are inherently Cartesian/planar geometries. They have no concept of geodesy, and none of the methods or properties exposed from the QgsGeometry API (or QgsAbstractGeometry subclasses) utilize geodesic calculations. Accordingly, properties like length() and area() or spatial operations like buffer() are always calculated using strictly Cartesian mathematics. In contrast, the QgsDistanceArea class exposes methods for working with geodesic calculations and spatial operations on geometries, and should be used whenever calculations which account for the curvature of the Earth (or any other celestial body) are required.

◆ constParts()

QgsGeometryConstPartIterator QgsGeometry::constParts ( ) const

for part in geometry.constParts():
    print(part.asWkt())
 
# part iteration can also be combined with vertex iteration

◆ convexHull()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::convexHull ( ) const

◆ createGeometryEngine()

QgsGeometryEngine * QgsGeometry::createGeometryEngine ( const QgsAbstractGeometry * geometry )

static

Creates and returns a new geometry engine representing the specified geometry.

A geometry engine is a low-level representation of a QgsAbstractGeometry object, optimised for use with external geometry libraries such as GEOS.

QgsGeometryEngine objects provide a mechanism for optimized evaluation of geometric algorithms, including spatial relationships between geometries and operations such as buffers or clipping. QgsGeometryEngine is recommended for use in any performance critical code instead of directly using the equivalent QgsGeometry methods such as QgsGeometry::intersects().

Many methods available in the QgsGeometryEngine class can benefit from pre-preparing geometries. For instance, whenever a large number of spatial relationships will be tested (such as calling intersects(), within(), etc) then the geometry should first be prepared by calling prepareGeometry() before performing the tests.

Example

# polygon_geometry contains a complex polygon, with many vertices
polygon_geometry = QgsGeometry.fromWkt('Polygon((...))')
 
# create a QgsGeometryEngine representation of the polygon
polygon_geometry_engine = QgsGeometry.createGeometryEngine(polygon_geometry.constGet())
 
# since we'll be performing many intersects tests, we can speed up these tests considerably
# by first "preparing" the geometry engine
polygon_geometry_engine.prepareGeometry()
 
# now we are ready to quickly test intersection against many other objects
for feature in my_layer.getFeatures():
    feature_geometry = feature.geometry()
    # test whether the feature's geometry intersects our original complex polygon
    if polygon_geometry_engine.intersects(feature_geometry.constGet()):
        print('feature intersects the polygon!')

QgsGeometryEngine operations are backed by the GEOS library (https://trac.osgeo.org/geos/).

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::createWedgeBuffer	(	const QgsPoint &	center,
		double	azimuth,
		double	angularWidth,
		double	outerRadius,
		double	innerRadius = `0`
	)

static

Creates a wedge shaped buffer from a center point.

The azimuth gives the angle (in degrees) for the middle of the wedge to point. The buffer width (in degrees) is specified by the angularWidth parameter. Note that the wedge will extend to half of the angularWidth either side of the azimuth direction.

The outer radius of the buffer is specified via outerRadius, and optionally an innerRadius can also be specified.

Returns: false if atVertex does not correspond to a valid vertex on this geometry (including if this geometry is a Point), or if the number of remaining vertices in the linestring would be less than two. It is up to the caller to distinguish between these error conditions. (Or maybe we add another method to this object to help make the distinction?)

◆ densifyByCount()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::densifyByCount ( int extraNodesPerSegment ) const

Returns a copy of the geometry which has been densified by adding the specified number of extra nodes within each segment of the geometry.

If the geometry has z or m values present then these will be linearly interpolated at the added nodes. Curved geometry types are automatically segmentized by this routine.

See also: densifyByDistance()

Since: QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 2148 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ densifyByDistance()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::densifyByDistance ( double distance ) const

Densifies the geometry by adding regularly placed extra nodes inside each segment so that the maximum distance between any two nodes does not exceed the specified distance.

E.g. specifying a distance 3 would cause the segment [0 0] -> [10 0] to be converted to [0 0] -> [2.5 0] -> [5 0] -> [7.5 0] -> [10 0], since 3 extra nodes are required on the segment and spacing these at 2.5 increments allows them to be evenly spaced over the segment. If the geometry has z or m values present then these will be linearly interpolated at the added nodes. Curved geometry types are automatically segmentized by this routine.

◆ disjoint()

bool QgsGeometry::disjoint ( const QgsGeometry & geometry ) const

◆ distance()

double QgsGeometry::distance ( const QgsGeometry & geom ) const

◆ equals()

bool QgsGeometry::equals ( const QgsGeometry & geometry ) const

Test if this geometry is exactly equal to another geometry.

◆ frechetDistance()

double QgsGeometry::frechetDistance ( const QgsGeometry & geom ) const

Returns the Fréchet distance between this geometry and geom, restricted to discrete points for both geometries.

The Fréchet distance is a measure of similarity between curves that takes into account the location and ordering of the points along the curves. Therefore it is often better than the Hausdorff distance.

In case of error -1 will be returned.

◆ frechetDistanceDensify()

double QgsGeometry::frechetDistanceDensify	(	const QgsGeometry &	geom,

	)		const

Returns the Fréchet distance between this geometry and geom, restricted to discrete points for both geometries.

The Fréchet distance is a measure of similarity between curves that takes into account the location and ordering of the points along the curves. Therefore it is often better than the Hausdorff distance.

This function accepts a densifyFraction argument. The function performs a segment densification before computing the discrete Fréchet distance. The densifyFraction parameter sets the fraction by which to densify each segment. Each segment will be split into a number of equal-length subsegments, whose fraction of the total length is closest to the given fraction.

This method can be used when the default approximation provided by frechetDistance() is not sufficient. Decreasing the densifyFraction parameter will make the distance returned approach the true Fréchet distance for the geometries.

Returns the Hausdorff distance between this geometry and geom.

This is basically a measure of how similar or dissimilar 2 geometries are.

Insert a new vertex before the given vertex index, ring and item (first number is index 0) If the requested vertex number (beforeVertex.back()) is greater than the last actual vertex on the requested ring and item, it is assumed that the vertex is to be appended instead of inserted.

Returns false if atVertex does not correspond to a valid vertex on this geometry (including if this geometry is a Point). It is up to the caller to distinguish between these error conditions. (Or maybe we add another method to this object to help make the distinction?)

bool QgsGeometry::isAxisParallelRectangle	(	double	maximumDeviation,
		bool	simpleRectanglesOnly = `false`
	)		const

Returns true if the geometry is a polygon that is almost an axis-parallel rectangle.

The maximumDeviation argument specifes the maximum angle (in degrees) that the polygon edges are allowed to deviate from axis parallel lines.

By default the check will permit polygons with more than 4 edges, so long as the overall shape of the polygon is an axis-parallel rectangle (i.e. it is tolerant to rectangles with additional vertices added along the rectangle sides). If simpleRectanglesOnly is set to true then the method will only return true if the geometry is a simple rectangle consisting of 4 edges.

◆ isGeosEqual()

bool QgsGeometry::isGeosEqual ( const QgsGeometry & g ) const

◆ largestEmptyCircle()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::largestEmptyCircle	(	double	tolerance,
		const QgsGeometry &	boundary = `QgsGeometry()`
	)		const

Constructs the Largest Empty Circle for a set of obstacle geometries, up to a specified tolerance.

The Largest Empty Circle is the largest circle which has its center in the convex hull of the obstacles (the boundary), and whose interior does not intersect with any obstacle. The circle center is the point in the interior of the boundary which has the farthest distance from the obstacles (up to tolerance). The circle is determined by the center point and a point lying on an obstacle indicating the circle radius. The implementation uses a successive-approximation technique over a grid of square cells covering the obstacles and boundary. The grid is refined using a branch-and-bound algorithm. Point containment and distance are computed in a performant way by using spatial indexes. Returns a two-point linestring, with one point at the center of the inscribed circle and the other on the boundary of the inscribed circle.

This method requires QGIS builds based on GEOS 3.9 or later.

Warning: the tolerance value must be a value greater than 0, or the algorithm may never converge on a solution

◆ makeValid()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::makeValid ( ) const

Attempts to make an invalid geometry valid without losing vertices.

Already-valid geometries are returned without further intervention. In case of full or partial dimensional collapses, the output geometry may be a collection of lower-to-equal dimension geometries or a geometry of lower dimension. Single polygons may become multi-geometries in case of self-intersections. It preserves Z values, but M values will be dropped.

If an error was encountered during the process, more information can be retrieved by calling lastError() on the returned geometry.

Returns: new valid QgsGeometry or null geometry on error

Note: For QGIS builds using GEOS library versions older than 3.8 this method calls an internal fork of PostGIS' ST_MakeValid() function. For builds based on GEOS 3.8 or later this method calls the GEOS MakeValid method directly.

◆ minimumClearance()

double QgsGeometry::minimumClearance ( ) const

Computes the minimum clearance of a geometry.

The minimum clearance is the smallest amount by which a vertex could be moved to produce an invalid polygon, a non-simple linestring, or a multipoint with repeated points. If a geometry has a minimum clearance of 'eps', it can be said that:

No two distinct vertices in the geometry are separated by less than 'eps'
No vertex is closer than 'eps' to a line segment of which it is not an endpoint.

If the minimum clearance cannot be defined for a geometry (such as with a single point, or a multipoint whose points are identical) a value of infinity will be returned.

If an error occurs while calculating the clearance NaN will be returned.

This method requires a QGIS build based on GEOS 3.6 or later.

Exceptions

QgsNotSupportedException on QGIS builds based on GEOS 3.5 or earlier.

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::minimumWidth ( ) const

Returns a linestring geometry which represents the minimum diameter of the geometry.

The minimum diameter is defined to be the width of the smallest band that contains the geometry, where a band is a strip of the plane defined by two parallel lines. This can be thought of as the smallest hole that the geometry can be moved through, with a single rotation.

This method requires a QGIS build based on GEOS 3.6 or later.

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::node ( ) const

Returns a (Multi)LineString representing the fully noded version of a collection of linestrings.

		double	angleThreshold = `15.0`
	)		const

Attempts to orthogonalize a line or polygon geometry by shifting vertices to make the geometries angles either right angles or flat lines.

◆ overlaps()

bool QgsGeometry::overlaps ( const QgsGeometry & geometry ) const

Returns true if the geometry overlaps another geometry.

Since: QGIS 1.5

Definition at line 1250 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ parts()

QgsGeometryPartIterator QgsGeometry::parts ( )

Returns Java-style iterator for traversal of parts of the geometry.

This iterator can safely be used to modify parts of the geometry.

This method forces a detach. Use constParts() to avoid the detach if the parts are not going to be modified.

Example

# print the WKT representation of each part in a multi-point geometry
geometry = QgsGeometry.fromWkt( 'MultiPoint( 0 0, 1 1, 2 2)' )
for part in geometry.parts():
    print(part.asWkt())
 
# single part geometries only have one part - this loop will iterate once only
geometry = QgsGeometry.fromWkt( 'LineString( 0 0, 10 10 )' )
for part in geometry.parts():
    print(part.asWkt())
 
# parts can be modified during the iteration
geometry = QgsGeometry.fromWkt( 'MultiPoint( 0 0, 1 1, 2 2)' )
for part in geometry.parts():
    part.transform(ct)
 
# part iteration can also be combined with vertex iteration
geometry = QgsGeometry.fromWkt( 'MultiPolygon((( 0 0, 0 10, 10 10, 10 0, 0 0 ),( 5 5, 5 6, 6 6, 6 5, 5 5)),((20 2, 22 2, 22 4, 20 4, 20 2)))' )

◆ parts_begin()

QgsAbstractGeometry::part_iterator QgsGeometry::parts_begin ( )

◆ pointOnSurface()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::pointOnSurface ( ) const

Returns a point guaranteed to lie on the surface of a geometry.

While the centroid() of a geometry may be located outside of the geometry itself (e.g., for concave shapes), the point on surface will always be inside the geometry.

If the input is a NULL geometry, the output will also be a NULL geometry.

If an error was encountered while creating the result, more information can be retrieved by calling lastError() on the returned geometry.

◆ poleOfInaccessibility()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::poleOfInaccessibility	(	double	precision,
		double *	distanceToBoundary = `nullptr`
	)		const

Calculates the approximate pole of inaccessibility for a surface, which is the most distant internal point from the boundary of the surface.

This function uses the 'polylabel' algorithm (Vladimir Agafonkin, 2016), which is an iterative approach guaranteed to find the true pole of inaccessibility within a specified tolerance. More precise tolerances require more iterations and will take longer to calculate. Optionally, the distance to the polygon boundary from the pole can be stored.

◆ polygonize()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::polygonize ( const QVector< QgsGeometry > & geometries )

static

Creates a GeometryCollection geometry containing possible polygons formed from the constituent linework of a set of geometries.

The input geometries must be fully noded (i.e. nodes exist at every common intersection of the geometries). The easiest way to ensure this is to first call unaryUnion() on the set of input geometries and then pass the result to polygonize(). An empty geometry will be returned in the case of errors.

◆ randomPointsInPolygon() [1/2]

QVector< QgsPointXY > QgsGeometry::randomPointsInPolygon	(	int	count,

		unsigned long	seed = `0`,
		QgsFeedback *	feedback = `nullptr`,
		int	maxTriesPerPoint = `0`
	)		const

Returns a list of count random points generated inside a (multi)polygon geometry (if acceptPoint is specified, and restrictive, the number of points returned may be less than count).

Optionally, a specific random seed can be used when generating points. If seed is 0, then a completely random sequence of points will be generated.

If the source geometry is not a (multi)polygon, an empty list will be returned.

The optional feedback argument can be used to provide cancellation support during the point generation.

The acceptPoint function is used to filter result candidates. If the function returns false, then the point will not be accepted and another candidate generated.

When acceptPoint is specified, maxTriesPerPoint defines how many attempts to make before giving up generating a point.

◆ randomPointsInPolygon() [2/2]

QVector< QgsPointXY > QgsGeometry::randomPointsInPolygon	(	int	count,
		unsigned long	seed = `0`,

	)		const

Returns a list of count random points generated inside a (multi)polygon geometry.

Optionally, a specific random seed can be used when generating points. If seed is 0, then a completely random sequence of points will be generated.

If the source geometry is not a (multi)polygon, an empty list will be returned.

The optional feedback argument can be used to provide cancellation support during the point generation.

◆ removeDuplicateNodes()

bool QgsGeometry::removeDuplicateNodes	(	double	epsilon = `4 * std::numeric_limits<double>::epsilon()`,
		bool	useZValues = `false`
	)

Removes duplicate nodes from the geometry, wherever removing the nodes does not result in a degenerate geometry.

The epsilon parameter specifies the tolerance for coordinates when determining that vertices are identical.

By default, z values are not considered when detecting duplicate nodes. E.g. two nodes with the same x and y coordinate but different z values will still be considered duplicate and one will be removed. If useZValues is true, then the z values are also tested and nodes with the same x and y but different z will be maintained.

Note that duplicate nodes are not tested between different parts of a multipart geometry. E.g. a multipoint geometry with overlapping points will not be changed by this method.

The function will return true if nodes were removed, or false if no duplicate nodes were found.

Since: QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 1125 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ removeInteriorRings()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::removeInteriorRings ( double minimumAllowedArea = -1 ) const

void QgsGeometry::set ( QgsAbstractGeometry * geometry )

Sets the underlying geometry store.

Ownership of geometry is transferred.

Note: In QGIS 2.x this method was named setGeometry().; This method is deprecated for usage in Python and will be removed from Python bindings with QGIS 4. Using this method will confuse Python's memory management and type information system. Better create a new QgsGeometry object instead.

		double	offset = `0.25`,
		double	minimumDistance = `-1.0`,
		double	maxAngle = `180.0`
	)		const

Smooths a geometry by rounding off corners using the Chaikin algorithm.

This operation roughly doubles the number of vertices in a geometry.

If input geometries contain Z or M values, these will also be smoothed and the output geometry will retain the same dimensionality as the input geometry.

Parameters

iterations	number of smoothing iterations to run. More iterations results in a smoother geometry
offset	fraction of line to create new vertices along, between 0 and 1.0, e.g., the default value of 0.25 will create new vertices 25% and 75% along each line segment of the geometry for each iteration. Smaller values result in "tighter" smoothing.
minimumDistance	minimum segment length to apply smoothing to
maxAngle	maximum angle at node (0-180) at which smoothing will be applied

Returns a new geometry with all points or vertices snapped to the closest point of the grid.

If the gridified geometry could not be calculated (or was totally collapsed) an empty geometry will be returned. Note that snapping to grid may generate an invalid geometry in some corner cases. It can also be thought as rounding the edges and it may be useful for removing errors.

Parameters

hSpacing	Horizontal spacing of the grid (x axis). 0 to disable.
vSpacing	Vertical spacing of the grid (y axis). 0 to disable.
dSpacing	Depth spacing of the grid (z axis). 0 (default) to disable.

Definition at line 609 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ subdivide()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::subdivide ( int maxNodes = 256 ) const

Subdivides the geometry.

The returned geometry will be a collection containing subdivided parts from the original geometry, where no part has more then the specified maximum number of nodes (maxNodes).

This is useful for dividing a complex geometry into less complex parts, which are better able to be spatially indexed and faster to perform further operations such as intersects on. The returned geometry parts may not be valid and may contain self-intersections.

The minimum allowed value for maxNodes is 8.

Curved geometries will be segmentized before subdivision.

If the input is a NULL geometry, the output will also be a NULL geometry.

Calculates a variable width buffer ("tapered buffer") for a (multi)curve geometry.

The buffer begins at a width of startWidth at the start of each curve, and ends at a width of endWidth. Note that unlike buffer() methods, startWidth and endWidth are the diameter of the buffer at these points, not the radius.

The segments argument specifies the number of segments to approximate quarter-circle curves in the buffer.

QgsGeometry::OperationResult QgsGeometry::transform	(	const QgsCoordinateTransform &	ct,
		QgsCoordinateTransform::TransformDirection	direction = `QgsCoordinateTransform::ForwardTransform`,
		bool	transformZ = `false`
	)

Transforms this geometry as described by the coordinate transform ct.

The transformation defaults to a forward transform, but the direction can be swapped by setting the direction argument.

By default, z-coordinates are not transformed, even if the coordinate transform includes a vertical datum transformation. To transform z-coordinates, set transformZ to true. This requires that the z coordinates in the geometry represent height relative to the vertical datum of the source CRS (generally ellipsoidal heights) and are expressed in its vertical units (generally meters).

Optionally, the geometry's z values can be scaled via zScale and translated via zTranslate. Similarly, m-values can be scaled via mScale and translated via mTranslate.

Returns: OperationResult a result code: success or reason of failure

Definition at line 2976 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ transformVertices()

void QgsGeometry::transformVertices ( const std::function< QgsPoint(const QgsPoint &) > & transform )

Transforms the vertices from the geometry in place, applying the transform function to every vertex.

Depending on the transform used, this may result in an invalid geometry.

Transform functions are not permitted to alter the dimensionality of vertices. If a transform which adds (or removes) z/m values is desired, first call the corresponding addZValue() or addMValue() function to change the geometry's dimensionality and then transform.

Note: Not available in Python bindings

◆ translate()

QgsGeometry::OperationResult QgsGeometry::translate	(	double	dx,
		double	dy,
		double	dz = `0.0`,
		double	dm = `0.0`
	)

Translates this geometry by dx, dy, dz and dm.

Returns: OperationResult a result code: success or reason of failure

Definition at line 807 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ type()

QgsWkbTypes::GeometryType QgsGeometry::type ( ) const

Returns type of the geometry as a QgsWkbTypes::GeometryType.

See also: wkbType

Definition at line 364 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ unaryUnion()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::unaryUnion ( const QVector< QgsGeometry > & geometries )

static

Compute the unary union on a list of geometries.

May be faster than an iterative union on a set of geometries. The returned geometry will be fully noded, i.e. a node will be created at every common intersection of the input geometries. An empty geometry will be returned in the case of errors.

Definition at line 2913 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ validateGeometry()

void QgsGeometry::validateGeometry	(	QVector< QgsGeometry::Error > &	errors,
		ValidationMethod	method = `ValidatorQgisInternal`,
		QgsGeometry::ValidityFlags	flags = `QgsGeometry::ValidityFlags()`
	)		const

Validates geometry and produces a list of geometry errors.

The method argument dictates which validator to utilize.

The flags parameter indicates optional flags which control the type of validity checking performed.

Since: QGIS 1.5

Definition at line 2802 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ variableWidthBufferByM()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::variableWidthBufferByM ( int segments ) const

Calculates a variable width buffer for a (multi)linestring geometry, where the width at each node is taken from the linestring m values.

The segments argument specifies the number of segments to approximate quarter-circle curves in the buffer.

Non (multi)linestring input geometries will return a null output geometry.

Since: QGIS 3.2

Definition at line 2082 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ vertexAt()

QgsPoint QgsGeometry::vertexAt ( int atVertex ) const

Returns coordinates of a vertex.

Parameters

atVertex index of the vertex

Returns: Coordinates of the vertex or empty QgsPoint on error

Definition at line 593 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ vertexIdFromVertexNr()

bool QgsGeometry::vertexIdFromVertexNr	(	int	number,
		QgsVertexId &	id
	)		const

Calculates the vertex ID from a vertex number.

If a matching vertex was found, it will be stored in id.

Returns true if vertex was found.

See also: vertexNrFromVertexId()

Since: QGIS 2.10

Definition at line 3101 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ vertexNrFromVertexId()

int QgsGeometry::vertexNrFromVertexId ( QgsVertexId id ) const

Returns the vertex number corresponding to a vertex id.

The vertex numbers start at 0, so a return value of 0 corresponds to the first vertex.

Returns -1 if a corresponding vertex could not be found.

See also: vertexIdFromVertexNr()

Since: QGIS 2.10

Definition at line 3137 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ vertices()

QgsVertexIterator QgsGeometry::vertices ( ) const

Returns a read-only, Java-style iterator for traversal of vertices of all the geometry, including all geometry parts and rings.

Warning: The iterator returns a copy of individual vertices, and accordingly geometries cannot be modified using the iterator. See transformVertices() for a safe method to modify vertices "in-place".

Example

# print the x and y coordinate for each vertex in a LineString
geometry = QgsGeometry.fromWkt( 'LineString( 0 0, 1 1, 2 2)' )
for v in geometry.vertices():
    print(v.x(), v.y())
 
# vertex iteration includes all parts and rings
geometry = QgsGeometry.fromWkt( 'MultiPolygon((( 0 0, 0 10, 10 10, 10 0, 0 0 ),( 5 5, 5 6, 6 6, 6 5, 5 5)),((20 2, 22 2, 22 4, 20 4, 20 2)))' )
for v in geometry.vertices():
    print(v.x(), v.y())

◆ vertices_begin()

QgsAbstractGeometry::vertex_iterator QgsGeometry::vertices_begin ( ) const

Returns STL-style iterator pointing to the first vertex of the geometry.

Since: QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 1867 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ vertices_end()

QgsAbstractGeometry::vertex_iterator QgsGeometry::vertices_end ( ) const

Returns STL-style iterator pointing to the imaginary vertex after the last vertex of the geometry.

Since: QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 1874 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ voronoiDiagram()

QgsGeometry QgsGeometry::voronoiDiagram	(	const QgsGeometry &	extent = `QgsGeometry()`,
		double	tolerance = `0.0`,
		bool	edgesOnly = `false`
	)		const

Creates a Voronoi diagram for the nodes contained within the geometry.

Returns the Voronoi polygons for the nodes contained within the geometry. If extent is specified then it will be used as a clipping envelope for the diagram. If no extent is set then the clipping envelope will be automatically calculated. In either case the diagram will be clipped to the larger of the provided envelope OR the envelope surrounding all input nodes. The tolerance parameter specifies an optional snapping tolerance which can be used to improve the robustness of the diagram calculation. If edgesOnly is true than line string boundary geometries will be returned instead of polygons. An empty geometry will be returned if the diagram could not be calculated.

Since: QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 2291 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ within()

bool QgsGeometry::within ( const QgsGeometry & geometry ) const

Returns true if the geometry is completely within another geometry.

Note: For performance critical code, or when testing for within against many different geometries, consider using QgsGeometryEngine instead. This approach can be many orders of magnitude faster than calling within() directly. See createGeometryEngine() for details on how to use the QgsGeometryEngine class.

Since: QGIS 1.5

Definition at line 1262 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ wkbSize()

int QgsGeometry::wkbSize ( QgsAbstractGeometry::WkbFlags flags = QgsAbstractGeometry::WkbFlags() ) const

Returns the length of the QByteArray returned by asWkb()

The optional flags argument specifies flags controlling WKB export behavior

Since: QGIS 3.16

Definition at line 2624 of file qgsgeometry.cpp.

◆ wkbType()

QgsWkbTypes::Type QgsGeometry::wkbType ( ) const

Returns type of the geometry as a WKB type (point / linestring / polygon etc.)
