Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved handling of invalid multipolygon data, preserving areas from holes outside polygon boundaries and preventing overlapping parts from being counted more than once.
    • Invalid geometries continue to be repaired, while valid multipolygons remain unchanged. Other invalid geometry types retain their existing repair behaviour, including bow-tie polygons.
    • These changes provide more reliable geometry results without changing the handling of already-valid multipolygons.

Walkthrough

Invalid MultiPolygon geometries are repaired component by component and combined with unary_union. Other invalid geometry types continue to use make_valid on the whole geometry. Tests cover repaired and valid geometries.

Changes

MultiPolygon repair

Layer / File(s) Summary
Component-wise repair and validation
digital_land/datatype/wkt.py, tests/unit/datatype/test_wkt.py
Invalid MultiPolygon components are repaired separately and combined with unary_union. Tests check geometry validity, area, bow-tie repair, and preservation of valid multipolygons.

Nitpick Call normalisegeometry in the repair tests.

658-658: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Call normalise_geometry in the repair tests.

The hole-outside-shell and overlapping-parts tests call make_valid and unary_union directly. The bowtie test follows the same pattern. None of these tests calls normalise_geometry, so they do not exercise the component-wise repair in that function. Removing that repair does not change their results.

Call normalise_geometry in each of these tests and unpack its tuple return value. normalise_geometry returns (geometry, issue).

Suggested fix
-    fixed_geom = unary_union([make_valid(part) for part in output_wkt.geoms])
+    fixed_geom, _ = normalise_geometry(output_wkt)

Apply the same call pattern where the tests build fixed_geom at lines 673 and 689.

Update the bowtie, hole-outside-shell and overlapping-parts repair tests to call
normalise_geometry on output_wkt and unpack its geometry and issue return
values; replace the direct make_valid and unary_union repair expressions used to
build fixed_geom.

Outside diff Unpack the tuple returned by normalisegeometry in the hole-outside-shell test.

647-663: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Unpack the tuple returned by normalise_geometry in the hole-outside-shell test.

normalise_geometry returns (geometry, issue). The test stores the whole tuple in fixed_geom. The first attribute access, fixed_geom.is_valid at line 659, raises AttributeError before the assertion runs. The test therefore fails in every run.

Suggested fix
-    fixed_geom = normalise_geometry(
-            output_wkt
-        )  # unary_union([make_valid(part) for part in output_wkt.geoms])
+    fixed_geom, _issue = normalise_geometry(output_wkt)

Update test_normalise_geometry_hole_outside_shell to unpack the geometry and

Exercise normalise_geometry in the bow-tie test.

The input is a Polygon, so this branch calls make_valid for both the actual and expected results. The test passes without checking normalise_geometry. Call normalise_geometry(output_wkt) and compare its returned geometry with exp_geom.

Review comment at @tests/unit/datatype/test_wkt.py at line 694:
The bow-tie test currently calls make_valid instead of exercising
normalise_geometry. Update the test to call normalise_geometry with output_wkt
and compare the returned geometry with exp_geom.
