SimplePointInAreaLocator (com.vividsolutions:jts-parent 1.14.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- com.vividsolutions.jts.algorithm.locate.SimplePointInAreaLocator

All Implemented Interfaces:

PointOnGeometryLocator
```
public class SimplePointInAreaLocator
extends java.lang.Object
implements PointOnGeometryLocator
```
Computes the location of points relative to a Polygonal Geometry, using a simple O(n) algorithm. This algorithm is suitable for use in cases where only one or a few points will be tested against a given area.
The algorithm used is only guaranteed to return correct results for points which are not on the boundary of the Geometry.

  - locate
```
public static int locate(Coordinate p,
                         Geometry geom)
```
    Determines the Location of a point in an areal Geometry. Currently this will never return a value of BOUNDARY.
    
    Parameters:
    
    p - the point to test
    
    geom - the areal geometry to test
    
    Returns:
    
    the Location of the point in the geometry
  - containsPointInPolygon
