#1101: Negative buffer does not return empty geometry ------------------------+--------------------------- Reporter: uclaros | Owner: geos-devel@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: 3.9.2 Component: Default | Version: 3.9.0 Severity: Unassigned | Resolution: Keywords: | ------------------------+---------------------------
Comment (by mdavis): To refine that idea a bit, for a given area A the shape with the largest distance to the boundary is a circle. So the radius of the circle of area A is a lower bound on the negative buffer distance which will cause a shape to be eroded completely. This is a good optimization to add to the buffer code, and it might prevent this sort of issue, in large part. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.osgeo.org/geos/ticket/1101#comment:3> GEOS <http://trac.osgeo.org/geos> GEOS (Geometry Engine - Open Source) is a C++ port of the Java Topology Suite (JTS).
