Geometry.SpatiallyEquals

Geometry.SpatiallyEquals method

Determines if this geometry spatially equal to a specified geometry.

public bool SpatiallyEquals(IGeometry other)

Parameter	Type	Description
other	IGeometry	A geometry.

Return Value

true if this geometry “spatially equals” to specified geometry. false otherwise.

Exceptions

exception	condition
ArgumentNullException	Argument is `null`.
ArgumentException	One of the geometries is invalid in such way that operation can not be finished.
ArgumentException	`SpatialReferenceSystem` of geometries are not equivalent. You can use `SpatialReferenceSystemTransformation` in order to convert geometries to the same spatial reference system.

Remarks

This method tests equality in terms of DE-9IM intersection matrix. It does not depend on order of components (e.g. order of interior rings in polygon), Z and M values. Basically, it tests that two geometries occupy the same “space” when projected on two dimensional space. This method is equivalent to:

this.Relate(other, "T*F**FFF*");

See OpenGIS Simple Features Specification for more details about DE-9IM.
