Karl Wright commented on LUCENE-7154:
-------------------------------------
Wouldn't "contains" have a different result if the sense of the polygon were
different?
If you draw a polygon on a sphere (or an ellipsoid), there are two areas you
might be specifying: one on one side of the shape you drew, and another on the
other side.
> Add support for polygon holes to Geo3D

> Real-world polygons (e.g. from ESRI) have holes in them. We need polygon
> support in geo3D that works in the same way.
> The proposal would be to change the GeoConvexPolygon constructor to include a
> number of GeoPolygon inputs, each of which would specify a hole. Then, the
> GeoPolygonFactory.makeGeoPolygon() method would also need to accept a similar
> list of GeoPolygon hole descriptions.
> This change is likely to be fairly complex because of the already tricky
> algorithm used to create convex polygons from non-convex ones, implemented in
> GeoPolygonFactory.
