IGeometryServer3 Interface

Provides access to more standard operations on geometric 'value' objects. The input geometries are never modified by these operations. Designed for use in building web services or other kinds of distributed applications.

	All Properties Methods Inherited Non-inherited	Description
	AutoComplete	Discovers polygons bounded by existing polygons and input linework.
	Buffer	Buffers an array of geometries by each distance specified in an array of distances. The distance units can optionally be specified. Geometries buffered at a given distance can optionally be unioned together.
	BufferGeodesic	Constructs true buffer regions around Points, lines and polygons using true geodesic distances and directions.
	ConvexHull	Computes the convex hull of the input geometries
	Cut	Cuts the target polyline or polygon Cutter.
	Densify	Applies the ArcObjects 'Densify' operation to each element of the geometry array.
	DensifyGeodesic	Densifies geometries by plotting points along the geodesics between existing vertices (uses IPolycurve4::GeodesicDensify).
	Difference	Returns an array of geometries where each result geometry R[i] is (array1[i] difference G2).
	FindSRByWKID	Defines an SR based upon its well known identifier (WKID) and optionally a WKID for a vertical datum. The resolution and xy tolerances are either computed from the sr horizon or set to defaults. 'authority' is typically either 'EPSG' or 'Esri'.
	FindSRByWKT	Defines a spatial reference object based upon its well known text string (WKT) and optionally a WKT for a vertical datum. The resolution and xy tolerances are either computed from the sr horizon or set to defaults. The output sr is always high precision.
	FindUnitsByWKID	Defines a unit object based upon its well known identified (WKID). 'authority' is typically either 'EPSG' or 'Esri'.
	FindUnitsByWKT	Defines a unit object based upon its well known text string.
	Generalize	Returns generalized (Douglas-Poiker) versions of the input polylines and polygons (uses IPolycurve::Generalize).
	GetAreasAndLengths	Calculates areas and perimeter lengths for each polygon in the specified array.
	GetAreasAndLengths2	Calculates areas and perimeter lengths for each polygon in the specified array. Optionally does unit conversion.
	GetAreasAndLengthsGeodesic	Returns true geodesic area and geodesic perimeter length for each input polygon.
	GetAreasAndLengthsPreserveShape	Returns true area and perimeter length for each input polygon.
	GetDistance	Reports shortest distance between G1 and G2.
	GetDistanceGeodesic	Reports the shortest geodesic distance between G1 and G2.
	GetLabelPoints	Calculates an interior point for each polygon.
	GetLengths	Calculates the length of eacch polyline in the specified array.
	GetLengths2	Calculates the length of eacch polyline in the specified array. Optionally does unit conversion.
	GetLengthsGeodesic	Returns geodesic length of each Polyline.
	GetLengthsPreserveShape	Returns true length of each polyline.
	Intersect	Returns an array of geometries where each result geometry R[i] is (array1[i] intersect G2. If G2 is an Envelope, then this is clipping.
	Offset	Returns an array of polylines and polygons that are offset versions of the input polylines and polygons (uses ITopologicalOperator::ConstructOffset).
	Project	Projects an array of geometries from their current spatial reference (pInSR) to a destination spatial reference (pOutSR). The projection process can optionally include a datum transformation if the source and destination SRs have different GCSs.
	Relation	Determines the pairs of geometries from the input geometry arrays that participate in the specified spatial relation.
	Reshape	Reshapes the target polyline or polygon. The reshaping polyline can have only one part. If the target was not reshaped, an empty geometry of the saem type is returned.
	Simplify	Applies the ArcObjects 'Simplify' operation to each element of the geometry array.
	TrimExtend	Trims or extends each polyline in the input array using TrimExtendTo (uses IConstructCurve::ConstructExtended for extension operation).
	Union	Returns the topological union of the input geometries (uses ITopologicalOperator::ConstructUnion). The input geometries must have the same dimension (0d, 1d, 2d).
