polygonize lines

[Keith]

Martin,

I know JUMP can polygonize lines that are noded. I have fully noded
lines that I'd like to create polygons from. Can JEQL help do this? I
want a scriptable solution instead of JUMP. If not, can you recommend
an algorithm. I have a centroid point for each potential polygon, if
this helps. Thanks.

Well what a coincidence.... I was just thinking about how to do this using Jeql.  I view Polygonization as a poster child for scripted geometry processing - it's a clean, straightforward task which can be easily scripted, but typically it does take several inputs (e.g. lines and centroids) and may produce several outputs (e.g. polygons, and possibly error lines which could not be correctly polygonized.

So...  this should be easy to add to Jeql.  I'll make this the priority for my focus over the next few days. 

Do you have a sample dataset of lines and centroids that you can provide?  (I can make one up, of course, but it's nice to have a real test case).

Great. I just emailed you a test file at your refractions address. I
do not see how to attach a file here.
