Operation GM_Object mbRegion (), in Class GM_Object

Documentation
The operation "mbRegion" is included here only as an interface, as different applications may choose to implement it in different manners. It shall return a region in the coordinate reference system that contains this GM_Object. The default shall be to return the same object as "GM_Object::envelope," from the operator "envelope." The most common use of mbRegion will be to support indexing methods that use extents other than minimum bounding rectangles (MBR or envelopes).
GM_Object::mbRegion() : GM_Object
This does not restrict the returned GM_Object from being a non-vector geometric representation, although those types are not defined within this part.
