Description

gen_parallels_xldgen_parallels_xldGenParallelsXldGenParallelsXldGenParallelsXldgen_parallels_xld examines the XLD polygons passed in PolygonsPolygonsPolygonsPolygonspolygonspolygons for parallelism. The resulting parallel polygons are returned in ParallelsParallelsParallelsParallelsparallelsparallels. If the parameter MergeMergeMergeMergemergemerge is set to 'true'"true""true""true""true""true", adjacent parallel polygons are returned in a single parallel relation. Otherwise, one parallel relation is returned for each pair of parallel line segments.

Only polygon segments longer than LenLenLenLenlenlen are taken into account. Whether two polygon segments are parallel depends on a maximum allowed angle difference AlphaAlphaAlphaAlphaalphaalpha (in radians). Furthermore, the projections of the two segments onto their angle bisector have to overlap. Finally, the overlap on the angle bisector is reprojected onto the two segments. If the maximal distance of the reprojections is smaller than DistDistDistDistdistdist, the segments are stored in ParallelsParallelsParallelsParallelsparallelsparallels.

As a side effect, a quality factor is calculated for each pair of parallels, compare mod_parallels_xldmod_parallels_xldModParallelsXldModParallelsXldModParallelsXldmod_parallels_xld. It is based on the normalized angular difference and the normalized length of the overlap: Here, is the angle difference of the polygon segments, is the length of the overlap, and the lengths of the polygon segments, and the resulting quality factor. The quality factor is a measure of parallelism (the larger its value, the “more parallel” the polygons). Finally, the quality factors of all parallel polygon segments contained in a single polygon are added, weighted with their length of the overlapping area. Note that you can query the range for the quality factor with info_parallels_xldinfo_parallels_xldInfoParallelsXldInfoParallelsXldInfoParallelsXldinfo_parallels_xld.
