Would it be possible to add this to the JTS and GEOS documenation? The
order of the 9 components of the DE-9IM matrix is confusing and not
specified.
---------------------------------------------
The order of the elements of the DE-9IM intersection matrix looks like this:
For A.relate(B)::
B
Interior Boundary Exterior
Interior 1st 2nd 3rd
A Boundary 4th 5th 6th
Exterior 7th 8th 9th
So "**F******" means that the Interior of A must not
interact with the Exterior of B.
