Jul 23, 2021 at 12:18 comment added TigerLily Thanks for the reply. As I understand it, the centroids are either inside the grid or on the edge line (a small but theoretically possible probability). the geometric predicate description is a bit unclear.
Jul 23, 2021 at 9:28 comment added geozelot Oh you'd be surprised in how many n-dimensional realms that point contains the polygon...but in your Euclidean 2D plane, using centroids is the way to go. The key is true containment, to rule out the extremely unlikely case of a point sitting exactly on a boundary.
Jul 23, 2021 at 8:36 comment added TigerLily Apology accepted. Just a little surprised. To me it was just a 'no reaction' question, but apparently it should be compared to a major discovery and a Nobel Prize.
Jul 23, 2021 at 8:28 comment added Erik I am sorry if the ironic remark was too much.
Jul 23, 2021 at 8:24 comment added TigerLily You're right, thanks. But I don't think a little politeness will cost you anything.
Jul 23, 2021 at 8:22 comment added Erik Centroids are points. If you are able to demonstrate that a point can be contained by several not overlapping polygons, you shouldn't be posting here, you should be writing a paper and getting ready for you nobel prize.
Jul 23, 2021 at 8:19 comment added TigerLily But centroids will still have containment/contact etc. relationships with multiple grids?
