I checked the gwt-google-apis Maps API and there is no union for
polygons (unfortunately). These things can get pretty ugly if you try
to union polygons which don't intersect (I am not sure what you'll end
up with, in JTS a MultiPolygon perhaps).

On you post "I think the big thing will be to make converting from JTS
to GWT
and vice-versa again very efficient." - did you mean Google Maps
instead of GWT?

If so, you have a point. What I have now is:

pure Java JTS -> RPC -> client emulated JTS -> Google Maps geometries

I could skip the client emulated JTS and instantiate wrappers for the
Google Maps geometry classes like Polyline and Polygon, which would
contain the Maps geometry and all other information JTS might need,
instead of instantiating emulated JTS classes and then converting
them.

I would end up with:

pure Java JTS -> RPC -> wrapped Google Maps geometries

Thanks for the insight, I'll jot that down and look at it carefully on
the weekend.

Alexandre Pretyman
