Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-7157:
-------------------------------------
Karl by outer rings i mean, non-holes. Maybe i caused some confusion with my
terminology.
Polygons (except holes) -> clockwise
holes -> counterclockwise.
This is already required or at least recommended by many standards. I don't
think its too much for us to require so that we can use fast algorithms. I
really do think it can solve this issue.
> Geo3DPoint implementation should pay attention to the ordering of lat/lon

> The LatLonPoint API implementation pays attention to the order of the points;
> "clockwise" means one side of the polygon boundary, and "counterclockwise"
> means the complement. We need to use that in Geo3DPoint and convert into
> whatever the underlying GeoPolygonFactory method requires.
