Geometric set operations are enabled on an ASPL workspace whose element grouping class is GEOnamed. For such workspace the ASPL set operators
f& and
f\ provides geometric set operations. The context of geometric intersection and difference is programmed within ASPL to allow the users to determine geometrically overlapping and disjoint elements in a group using
f& and
f\ respectively. The set operators
f& and
f\ do contextual set intersection and set difference according to contextual routines, here they are the user programmed GEOmetric routines.
