I've found the best way is to just modify the geometry directly.
First, set the appropriate capability bit:
geometry.setCapability(GeometryArray.ALLOW_COORDINATE_WRITE);
then use
geometry.setCoordinate(s)
to do your updating. The new geometry will be used the next
time the scene is drawn. It's probably best to modify the geometry in a
Behavior with a WakeupOnXXX driving your modifications.
