Is there a way to convert a self intersecting polygon to a multipolygon in JTS?

问题

Take the invalid polygon POLYGON((0 100, 100 100, 0 0, 100 0, 0 100)) - an egg timer shape with an undeclared point of intersection

Many instructions say that JTS can create a valid version of this using the buffer method:

Geometry input = new WKTReader().read("POLYGON((0 100, 100 100, 0 0, 100 0, 0 100))");
Geometry output = geom.buffer(0);
return output;

However, this produces the output POLYGON ((0 100, 100 100, 50 50, 0 100)) where part of the polygon is lost:

Is there a way to get JTS to validate polygons such that it will produce the output MULTIPOLYGON(((0 100, 100 100, 50 50, 0 100)), ((0 0, 100 0, 50 50, 0 0))) for the input given?

This seems like something that should be built in to the API (maybe this behaviour is a bug) - have I missed something?

Thank you.

JTS seems to offer the behaviour I require, though I had to do a little legwork in my own code. The validate function I wrote breaks down a polygon/multipolygon into a collection of non self intersecting linestrings, and then uses the Polygonizer class to build polygons from the result. I have tested it on the following (limited) set of inputs, and it seems to behave the way I require:

    POLYGON((0 100, 100 100, 0 0, 100 0, 0 100))
    POLYGON((0 0, 0 100, 100 100, 100 0, 0 0))
    MULTIPOLYGON(((0 0, 0 100, 100 100, 100 0, 0 0)),((50 50, 50 150, 150 150, 150 50, 50 50)))
    POLYGON((0 0, 50 50, 100 0, 150 0, 200 50, 250 0, 0 0))

Code:

/**
 * Get / create a valid version of the geometry given. If the geometry is a polygon or multi polygon, self intersections /
 * inconsistencies are fixed. Otherwise the geometry is returned.
 * 
 * @param geom
 * @return a geometry 
 */
public static Geometry validate(Geometry geom){
    if(geom instanceof Polygon){
        if(geom.isValid()){
            geom.normalize(); // validate does not pick up rings in the wrong order - this will fix that
            return geom; // If the polygon is valid just return it
        }
        Polygonizer polygonizer = new Polygonizer();
        addPolygon((Polygon)geom, polygonizer);
        return toPolygonGeometry(polygonizer.getPolygons(), geom.getFactory());
    }else if(geom instanceof MultiPolygon){
        if(geom.isValid()){
            geom.normalize(); // validate does not pick up rings in the wrong order - this will fix that
            return geom; // If the multipolygon is valid just return it
        }
        Polygonizer polygonizer = new Polygonizer();
        for(int n = geom.getNumGeometries(); n-- > 0;){
            addPolygon((Polygon)geom.getGeometryN(n), polygonizer);
        }
        return toPolygonGeometry(polygonizer.getPolygons(), geom.getFactory());
    }else{
        return geom; // In my case, I only care about polygon / multipolygon geometries
    }
}

    addLineString(polygon.getExteriorRing(), polygonizer);
    for(int n = polygon.getNumInteriorRing(); n-- > 0;){
        addLineString(polygon.getInteriorRingN(n), polygonizer);
    }
}

/**

 *

static void addLineString(LineString lineString, Polygonizer polygonizer){

    if(lineString instanceof LinearRing){ // LinearRings are treated differently to line strings : we need a LineString NOT a LinearRing
        lineString = lineString.getFactory().createLineString(lineString.getCoordinateSequence());
    }

    // unioning the linestring with the point makes any self intersections explicit.
    Point point = lineString.getFactory().createPoint(lineString.getCoordinateN(0));
    Geometry toAdd = lineString.union(point); 

    //Add result to polygonizer
    polygonizer.add(toAdd);
}

/**

static Geometry toPolygonGeometry(Collection<Polygon> polygons, GeometryFactory factory){
    switch(polygons.size()){
        case 0:
            return null; // No valid polygons!
        case 1:
            return polygons.iterator().next(); // single polygon - no need to wrap
        default:
            //polygons may still overlap! Need to sym difference them
            Iterator<Polygon> iter = polygons.iterator();
            Geometry ret = iter.next();
            while(iter.hasNext()){
                ret = ret.symDifference(iter.next());
