Operation DirectPosition representativePoint (), in Class GM_Object

Documentation
The operation "representativePoint" is included here only as an interface that may be implemented in different ways. It shall return a point value (DirectPosition) that is guaranteed to be on this GM_Object. The default logic may be to use the DirectPosition of the point returned by the operation "GM_Object::centroid" if that point is on the object.
GM_Object::representativePoint() : DirectPosition
Another use of representativePoint may be for the placement of labels in systems based on graphic presentation. Definitions for symbology and type placement are out of the scope of this part of ISO 15046.
