optionally toggle what validations are done with `validate_wkt()` #23

Closed sckott closed 2 years ago

sckott commented 6 years ago

immediate use case is for GBIF polygons need to be left winding, so walking counterclockwise and the stuff to the left is inside the polygon - whereas boost::geometry::failure_wrong_orientation pops up saying that it is wrong.

perhaps put a param in validate_wkt to toggle what checks are done

Is this an ask for me or a note to self?

sckott commented 6 years ago

note to self, but also discussion. maybe it's a bad idea to be able to toggle different validation tests? seems like it okay as long as its documented well wherever someone implements it

Ironholds commented 6 years ago

Agreed on fine-if-doc'd!
