Class VariableBuffer
java.lang.Object
org.locationtech.jts.operation.buffer.VariableBuffer
Creates a buffer polygon with a varying buffer distance
at each vertex along a line.
Only single lines are supported as input, since buffer widths are typically specified individually for each line.

buffer
Creates a buffer polygon along a line with the buffer distance interpolated between a start distance and an end distance.- Parameters:
line
- the line to bufferstartDistance
- the buffer width at the start of the lineendDistance
- the buffer width at the end of the line- Returns:
- the variable-distance buffer polygon

buffer
public static Geometry buffer(Geometry line, double startDistance, double midDistance, double endDistance) Creates a buffer polygon along a line with the buffer distance interpolated between a start distance, a middle distance and an end distance. The middle distance is attained at the vertex at or just past the half-length of the line. For smooth buffering of aLinearRing
(or the rings of aPolygon
) the start distance and end distance should be equal.- Parameters:
line
- the line to bufferstartDistance
- the buffer width at the start of the linemidDistance
- the buffer width at the middle vertex of the lineendDistance
- the buffer width at the end of the line- Returns:
- the variable-distance buffer polygon
