Geo module features

The Geo module lives in the net.buildtheearth.terracore.geo package. It brings:

  • support for geographic projections (i.e. mapping points from a globe onto a flat Cartesian plane and vice versa), in the projection subpackage;
  • quality of life classes to help present geographic data in human friendly ways, like CardinalDirection and CoordinateParseUtils;
  • data structures for efficient spatial computations:
    • bounding volume hierarchy structures (BVH) in the bvh subpackage;
    • an interval tree structure in the interval subpackage;
  • various geo maths in the GeoMaths class.
