Re: [CF-metadata] [cf-convention/cf-conventions] Are geometries allowed to self-intersect? (Issue #354)

2022-02-09 Thread David Blodgett
We have lots and lots of polygons with self intersections where the polygon closes on itself at a node. It may not cross but it does need to pinch off an open back up -- so an intersection is real. I don't think CF should have a horse in this race.
