I have put together an application using Oracle Application Express
that displays polygons on a map. I've created 2 functions that cut
polygons; one where a polygon is cut by another overlapping polygon
and a 2nd function where a polygon can be cut by a polyline drawn
through it. The purpose of these functions is to enable the creation
of neighbouring polygons that do not overlap.

The sample app is available at (real app is behind company firewall
and will use Premier API);

Right click on the map for a context menu.

The problem I have is with the "Cut with Region"   (i.e. cut with a
polygon) option; it works in many cases but not all. The code behind
it is quite complex and convoluted which leads me to believe a far
better solution is available out there somewhere.

Despite much searching, I have not been able to find an algorithm that
would work reliably. I know this issue is probably one of geometry
rather than an issue with the Maps API but I'm hoping one of the gurus
who contribute here might be able to point me in the right direction.
