There are still implementation issues and algorithmic details to be figured out or to be implemented. This is a preview and not yet a real submission. However I think that the community will get a feeling how it works and/or should work.
The URL with documentation is here: http://geometrylibrary.geodan.nl/geometry.html and sources can be downloaded from that webpage.
I just had a glance on the library. One thing that strikes me is its 2D perspective, which is not reflected in the names. I would at least call the namespace geometry2d or the classes point2d .... It really seems awkward to use the generic names for the specific 2D case. That being said, from my point of view any geometry basic layer (ie basic representation not the sophisticated algorithms) should be as dimension agnostic as possible... but I may be biased.
Thanks. For the namespace, it is no problem to change it and I agree, geometry2d would have been better. We might change it to "geospatial" or maybe "geospatial2d". For the dimensions, we could have added a Z or a N-templatized array of coordinate values, but because we don't do anything with them nor didn't planned to, they are not there.
Regards,
Theo.
