The geo crate provides geospatial primitive types such as Point, LineString, and Polygon, and provides algorithms and operations such as:
- Area and centroid calculation
- Simplification and convex hull operations
- Euclidean and Haversine distance measurement
- Intersection checks
- Transformation to and from PostGIS types
- Affine transforms such as rotation and translation.
Please refer to the documentation for a complete list.
The primitive types also provide the basis for other functionality in the Geo ecosystem, including:
- Coordinate transformation and projection
- Serialization to and from GeoJSON and WKT
- Geocoding
- Working with GPS data
use geo::{Polygon, LineString};

// An L shape
let coords = vec![(0.0, 0.0), (4.0, 0.0), (4.0, 1.0), (1.0, 1.0), (1.0, 4.0), (0.0, 4.0), (0.0, 0.0)];
// conversions to geo types are provided from several kinds of coordinate sequences
let poly = Polygon::new(coords.into(), vec![]);
// uses the QuickHull algorithm to calculate the polygon's convex hull
let hull = poly.convex_hull();
