- **Measurements:** area, length, distance.
- **Analysis:** centroid, convex hull, envelope, point on surface, boundary, minimum area bounding rectangle, minimum width bounding rectangle.
- **Transformations:** simplify, densify, snap to grid, reverse, force clockwise, force counter-clockwise, affine transformation.
- **Buffer:** buffer with configurable end cap styles, join styles, and single-sided mode.
- **Prepared geometries:** preprocess a geometry for efficient repeated spatial predicate evaluation.
- **Comparison:** exact equals.
- **Linear Interpolation:** interpolate point, interpolate evenly spaced points.
- **Properties:** is simple, is empty, dimension, is clockwise, is counter-clockwise, validate.
- **Envelope operations:** intersects, contains, covers, distance, expand to include, center, width, height, area, bounding diagonal.
