Method Detail

encode

<P extends Position> ByteBuffer encode(Geometry<P> geometry,
                                       ByteOrder byteOrder)

Encodes a Geometry to its WKB representation

Parameters:

geometry - the geometry to encode

byteOrder - the bye-order for the WKB representation

Returns:

a ByteBuffer containing the binary WKB representation of the specified geometry using the specified byte-order

encode

default <P extends Position> ByteBuffer encode(Geometry<P> geometry)

Encodes a Geometry to its WKB representation using NDR (little-endian) ByteOrder

Parameters:

geometry - the geometry to encode

Returns:

a ByteBuffer containing the binary WKB representation of the specified geometry with NDR byte-order
