<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>My goal is to input a point (lat/long) and to get all
polygons that contain this point. I am using SetSpatialFilter() to filter
on the specified point. I am being returned correct features (polygons),
but often, I am getting extra polygons. I can see through GUI tools that some
polygons/multipolygons are being returned that do not contain the point.
The doc for SetSpatialFilter() states ‘currently this test may be
inaccurately implemented’. Are there known cases that this method
is inaccurate? And is this one of those cases? Is there another way
to get the results I desire? I also tried using within()/contain() after
these polygons were returned, but that did not work because I am not building
with GEOS. Is there any way I can get the correct results without
building with GEOS? And if not, where do I find the GEOS binaries/source
code to build with OGR? And will these methods in GEOS even solve my
problem?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
