Description

The following is a valid, two-part MULTIPOLYGON:

MULTIPOLYGON (((-71.757875 44.565735, -71.748526 44.560716, -71.758014 44.564355, -71.757875 44.565735)),
((-71.760777 44.567292, -71.75725 44.56739, -71.757875 44.565735, -71.760777 44.567292)))

The "Check Geometry Validity" tool reports the following:

1,segment 0 of ring 0 of polygon 0 intersects segment 0 of ring 1 of polygon 1 at -71.757875, 44.565735
1,Geometry has 1 errors.

Using build 2863f20

History

#1 Updated by Arnaud Morvan almost 9 years ago

The two parts of the polygon have one point in common.
In Settings/Options/Digitizing/Feature creation, there is two options for validity checking which are QGIS or GEOS.
When checking the validity from ftools menu entry,
QGIS method effectively returns that the poligon is not valid:
1,segment 0 of ring 0 of polygon 0 intersects segment 0 of ring 1 of polygon 1 at -71.757875, 44.565735
1,Geometry has 1 errors.
GEOS method returns that the polygon is valid.

shoud we close this then?

#3 Updated by Daniel Baston almost 9 years ago

That's interesting. Is the intent of the "QGIS Method" to validate against a different set of rules than GEOS / OGC?
