Ignacio Vera commented on LUCENE-8139:
--------------------------------------
[~kwri...@metacarta.com]: What I like of this approach is that it makes sure
you can always build pure convex polygons (and probably pure concave). Maybe
more can be done using properties of the points.
[~dsmiley] I still need to set up my environemnt and sure I will have some
questions :)
> polygon constructor can't reliably find a point inside the polygon

> The polygon factory uses a randomize algorithm to find a point inside of the
> polygon. This might fail, in particular when polygons are very small. I want
> to propose a small improvement; Before going into the randomize algorithm, we
> can first try to try a point defined by the center of mass of the provided
> points. This approach improves things, for example for very small polygons
> with three points.
>
> does it make sense?
