PolyhedralSurface Concept

Description

The PolyhedralSurface Concept describes the requirements for a polyhedral surface type. All algorithms in Boost.Geometry will check any geometry arguments against the concept requirements.

A PolyhedralSurface is a contiguous collection of polygons, which share common boundary segments (OGC Simple Feature Specification).

Concept Definition

The PolyhedralSurface Concept is defined as following:

Rules

Besides the Concepts, which are checks on compile-time, there are rules that valid PolyhedralSurfaces must fulfill. See the Polygon Concept for more information on the rules a polygon (and also a polyhedral surface) must fulfill.
