Detailed Description

An Envelope defines a rectangulare region of the 2D coordinate plane.

It is often used to represent the bounding box of a Geometry, e.g. the minimum and maximum x and y values of the Coordinates.

Note that Envelopes support infinite or half-infinite regions, by using the values of Double_POSITIVE_INFINITY and Double_NEGATIVE_INFINITY.

When Envelope objects are created or initialized, the supplies extent values are automatically sorted into the correct order.
