18.2.8. Class GeometryCollection
A GeometryCollection is a geometry that is a
collection of one or more geometries of any class.
All the elements in a GeometryCollection must
be in the same Spatial Reference System (that is, in the same
coordinate system). There are no other constraints on the
elements of a GeometryCollection, although
the subclasses of GeometryCollection
described in the following sections may restrict membership.
Restrictions may be based on:
Element type (for example, a MultiPoint
may contain only Point elements)
Dimension
Constraints on the degree of spatial overlap between
elements
