IGeometryValidator (DMLab Library API for 0.0.4-SNAPSHOT)

All Known Implementing Classes:

BufferGeometryValidator, MulitPolyConvexHullGeometryValidator, PolygonizerGeometryValidator, SimplifyingGeometryValidator
```
public interface IGeometryValidator
```
This is the public interface for geometry validator objects used to clean various geometry objects so that they are valid geometry objects. One use of such validation is in polygon interpolation methods described in Boubrahimi et. al, 2018.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`org.locationtech.jts.geom.Geometry`	`produceValidGeometry(org.locationtech.jts.geom.Geometry input)`	Performs some validation function on the input geometry and returns a new geometry that conforms to that validation method.

- Method Detail
  - produceValidGeometry
```
org.locationtech.jts.geom.Geometry produceValidGeometry(org.locationtech.jts.geom.Geometry input)
```
    Performs some validation function on the input geometry and returns a new geometry that conforms to that validation method. An example would be to ensure that the coordinate list is in a counterclockwise direction.
    
    Parameters:
    
    input - The input geometry to force to conform to a set of validity rules.
    
    Returns:
    
    A valid copy of the input geometry.
