For those unfamiliar with ISO 19107, a cube is a polyhedral surface, 6
face polygons with 4 distinct points each (5 to close with the first =
last). Each face shares its 4 edges with 4 other faces (with orientation
reversed). 

A unit cube at the origin is (using a variant of SF4SQL WKT):

POLYHEDRAL_SURFACE
( 
        POLYGON(0 0 0, 0 0 1, 0 1 1, 0 1 0, 0 0 0),
        POLYGON(1 0 0, 1 0 1, 0 0 1, 0 0 0, 1 0 0),
        POLYGON(1 1 0, 1 1 1, 1 0 1, 1 0 0, 1 1 0),
        POLYGON(0 1 0, 0 1 1, 1 1 1, 1 1 0, 0 1 0),
        POLYGON(0 0 0, 0 1 0, 1 1 0, 1 0 0, 0 0 0),
        POLYGON(0 0 1, 1 0 1, 1 1 1, 0 1 1, 0 0 1)
)

Title: [Geoapi-devel] Make a cube, win prizes

See :
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/An+ISO+19107+Cube+Contest

Can you harness the raw power of the third dimension?  If you can figure
out how to make a cube with ISO 19107 geometry objects, please educate me.
Your wisdom shall be placed on the wiki for all to see!  Win fame and empty
flattery!
