Detailed Description

Abstract base class for all geometries.

Note: QgsAbstractGeometry objects are inherently Cartesian/planar geometries. They have no concept of geodesy, and none of the methods or properties exposed from the QgsAbstractGeometry API (or QgsGeometry API) utilize geodesic calculations. Accordingly, properties like length() and area() and spatial operations like centroid() 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.

Since: QGIS 2.10

Example

# print the WKT representation of each part in a multi-point geometry
geometry = QgsMultiPoint.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 = QgsLineString.fromWkt( 'LineString( 0 0, 10 10 )' )
for part in geometry.parts():
    print(part.asWkt())
 
# parts can be modified during the iteration

◆ perimeter()

double QgsAbstractGeometry::perimeter ( ) const

virtual

Returns the planar, 2-dimensional perimeter of the geometry.

Warning: QgsAbstractGeometry objects are inherently Cartesian/planar geometries, and the perimeter returned by this method is calculated using strictly Cartesian mathematics. In contrast, the QgsDistanceArea class exposes methods for calculating the perimeters of geometries using geodesic calculations which account for the curvature of the Earth (or any other celestial body).

◆ removeDuplicateNodes()

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

pure virtual

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

Implemented in QgsCircularString, QgsCompoundCurve, QgsCurvePolygon, QgsGeometryCollection, QgsLineString, and QgsPoint.

Definition at line 430 of file qgsabstractgeometry.cpp.

◆ segmentLength()

virtual double QgsAbstractGeometry::segmentLength ( QgsVertexId startVertex ) const

◆ setZMTypeFromSubGeometry()

		Qgis::WkbType	baseGeomType
	)

protected

Definition at line 75 of file qgsabstractgeometry.cpp.

◆ simplifiedTypeRef()

const QgsAbstractGeometry * QgsAbstractGeometry::simplifiedTypeRef ( ) const

virtual

Returns a reference to the simplest lossless representation of this geometry, e.g.

if the geometry is a multipart geometry type with a single member geometry, a reference to that part will be returned.

This method employs the following logic:

For multipart geometries containing a single part only a direct reference to that part will be returned.
For compound curve geometries containing a single curve only a direct reference to that curve will be returned.

This method returns a reference only, and does not involve any geometry cloning.

Note: Ownership of the returned geometry is NOT transferred, and remains with the original geometry object. Callers must take care to ensure that the original geometry object exists for the lifespan of the returned object.

Since: QGIS 3.20

Reimplemented in QgsCompoundCurve, and QgsGeometryCollection.

Definition at line 317 of file qgsabstractgeometry.cpp.

◆ snappedToGrid()

virtual QgsAbstractGeometry * QgsAbstractGeometry::snappedToGrid	(	double	hSpacing,
		double	vSpacing,
		double	dSpacing = `0`,
		double	mSpacing = `0`
	)		const

pure virtual

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

Ownership is transferred to the caller.

If the gridified geometry could not be calculated nullptr will be returned. It 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.

Example:

geometry.snappedToGrid(1, 1)

In this case we use a 2D grid of 1x1 to gridify. In this case, it can be thought like rounding the x and y of all the points/vertices to full units (remove all decimals).

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.
mSpacing	Custom dimension spacing of the grid (m axis). 0 (default) to disable.

virtual void QgsAbstractGeometry::transform	(	const QgsCoordinateTransform &	ct,

		bool	transformZ = `false`
	)

pure virtual

Transforms the geometry using a coordinate transform.

Parameters

ct	coordinate transform
d	transformation direction
transformZ	set to `true` to also transform z coordinates. 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). If `false`, then z coordinates will not be changed by the transform.

Implemented in QgsCircularString, QgsCompoundCurve, QgsCurvePolygon, QgsGeometryCollection, QgsLineString, and QgsPoint.

◆ transform() [2/3]

virtual void QgsAbstractGeometry::transform	(	const QTransform &	t,

		double	mTranslate = `0.0`,
		double	mScale = `1.0`
	)

pure virtual

Transforms the x and y components of the geometry using a QTransform object t.

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.

Implemented in QgsCircularString, QgsCompoundCurve, QgsCurvePolygon, QgsGeometryCollection, QgsLineString, and QgsPoint.

◆ transform() [3/3]

virtual bool QgsAbstractGeometry::transform	(	QgsAbstractGeometryTransformer *	transformer,
		QgsFeedback *	feedback = `nullptr`
	)

pure virtual

Transforms the vertices from the geometry in place, using the specified geometry transformer object.

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

The optional feedback argument can be used to cancel the transformation before it completes. If this is done, the geometry will be left in a semi-transformed state.

Returns: true if the geometry was successfully transformed.

Since: QGIS 3.18

Implemented in QgsCircularString, QgsCompoundCurve, QgsCurvePolygon, QgsGeometryCollection, QgsLineString, and QgsPoint.

◆ transformVertices()

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

virtual

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

◆ vertexNumberFromVertexId()

virtual int QgsAbstractGeometry::vertexNumberFromVertexId ( QgsVertexId id ) const

pure virtual

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.

Since: QGIS 3.0

Implemented in QgsCurve, QgsCurvePolygon, QgsGeometryCollection, QgsMultiPoint, and QgsPoint.

◆ vertices()

QgsVertexIterator QgsAbstractGeometry::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 = QgsLineString.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
