Class Envelope

    java.lang.Object
      com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.Envelope

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.io.Serializable

public class Envelope
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable

Defines a rectangular region of the 2D coordinate plane. It is often used to represent the bounding box of a `Geometry`, e.g. the minimum and maximum x and y values of the `Coordinate`s.

Note that Envelopes support infinite or half-infinite regions, by using the values of `Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY` and `Double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY`.

When Envelope objects are created or initialized, the supplies extent values are automatically sorted into the correct order.

Version:
  1.7
