Re: Polygon searches - documentation of algorithm?
One for the pot.
How reliable is the polygon search facility?
I know in older versions there were REAL issues, but is recorder now using 'foolproof' algorithms for returning records?
Or, is their still a margin of error.
As Recorder is not a proper GIS I wouldnt expect it to be foolproof - but as such I woud be keen to know where the errors might lie, and hence how reliant I am on its spatial capabilities.
"Include overlapping grid squares in report results. "
Is just not that simple. Are we using MCP's, the four corner vertices, a true point in polygon search for each vertex?
Is this documented and available?
I currently do use polygon searches within the software, but Im not sure I should be...
thanks
