Performs a relational operation to determine if two 2D geometries of the same dimension overlap.

Method Overview

Name Return Type Summary Object

Accelerate a geometry.

overlapsOperator

Perform the overlaps operation on two geometries.

overlapsOperator

Method Details

accelerateGeometry

Method
accelerateGeometry(geometry){Boolean}

Accelerate a geometry. This method prepares the geometry for faster overlaps operations when the same geometry is tested multiple times (e.g. in a loop with hundreds of iterations).

Parameter
geometry Geometry

The geometry to accelerate.

Returns
Type Description
Boolean Returns true if the geometry was successfully accelerated.

execute

Method
execute(geometry1, geometry2){Boolean}

Perform the overlaps operation on two geometries.

Parameters
geometry1 Geometry

The base geometry that is tested for the "overlaps" relationship with geom2.

geometry2 Geometry

The comparison geometry that is tested for the "overlaps" relationship with geom1.

Returns
Type Description
Boolean Returns true if the intersection set results in a geometry different from both, but of the same dimension.
Example
// Returns true if one geometry overlaps another,
// but is not contained or disjointed
const isOverlapping = overlapsOperator.execute(polygon1, polygon2);
