(Note: This algorithm does not care whether the polygon is traced in clockwise or counterclockwise fashion.) Figure 2 Figure 2 shows what happens if the polygon crosses itself. In this example, a ten-sided polygon has lines which cross each other. The effect is much like “exclusive or,” ...

The point-in-polygon algorithm allows you to programmatically check if a particular point is inside a polygon or outside of it. A common way to tackle the problem is to count how many times a line drawn from the point (in any direction) intersects with the polygon boundary. If the line ...
One algorithm for checking a point in any polygon is the crossings test. The earliest presentation of this algorithm is Shimrat(Shimrat 1962), though it has a bug in it. A ray is shot from the test point along an axis (+X is commonly used) and the number of crossings is computed (...
Ray casting algorithm[edit] The number of intersections for a ray passing from the exterior of the polygon to any point; if odd, it shows that the point lies inside the polygon. If it is even, the point lies outside the polygon; this test also works in three dimensions. ...
改进的point in polygon problem算法介绍 背景知识 点和多边形的位置问题(point-in-polygon (PIP) problem), 一般指的是给定二维平面上的一个点Q以及一个多边形P,怎样判断点Q是位于多边形P内部还是外部。该算法在计算机图形学,地理空间信息学等方面有广泛的应用。目前有两种通用的算法实现: Ray casting algorithm(又...
point-in-polygon Determine if a point is inside of a polygon. This module casts a semi-infinite ray from the inquiry point and counts intersections, based onthis algorithm. If you need a numerically robust solution and are willing to trade some performance for it, userobust-point-in-polygon...
“simple” algorithms. This algorithm is programmed in Matlab’s programming environment and will be tested against Matlab’s built-in point-in-polygon detection algorithm “inpolygon” which is believed to have a run-time of O(m*n).
The described algorithm is based on the point-vector form of a line and the ray intersection approach to the point in polygon test. The method described was first given by Saalfield [5], but also includes an appropriate modification for point in polygon testing, derived during its ...
