Paris Code Sprint 2016 : SFCGAL Agenda

Discussion and group review topics for the Paris Code Sprint 2016.

Discussion

 * How to get rid of validity test before geometry construction ?
 * add a flag to the postgis geometry ? (is_valid)
 * Is there a way to live with two kernels (inexact and exact) to avoid exact geometry construction when not needed ?
 * Does the new "expanded" object representation offered by postgresql helps in avoiding to serialize / unserialize between each call ?


 * Any advances in CGAL about 3D snap rounding ?


 * Integrate spherical kernels ?

Functions that would be nice to have in SFCGAL

 * alpha shapes from CGAL 2D and 3D
 * "field of view" : not necessarily related to CGAL
 * roof generation from straight skeleton
