Description  
 
Dimension  
The topological dimension of this geometry. 
 
 
Envelope  
Creates a copy of this geometry's envelope and returns it. 
 
 
GeometryType  
The type of this geometry. 
 
 
GeoNormalize  
Shifts longitudes, if need be, into a continuous range of 360 degrees. 
 
 
GeoNormalizeFromLongitude  
Normalizes longitudes into a continuous range containing the longitude. This method is obsolete. 
 
 
IsEmpty  
Indicates whether this geometry contains any points. 
 
 
Project  
Projects this geometry into a new spatial reference. 
 
 
ProjectEx  
Projects a geometry, optionally applies a GeoTransformation, and optionally densifies the geometry. 
 
 
QueryEnvelope  
Copies this geometry's envelope properties into the specified envelope. 
 
 
QueryWKSEnvelope  
Defines the specified wksenvelope to be the current extent of this geometry in the x-y plane. 
 
 
SetEmpty  
Removes all points from this geometry. 
 
 
SnapToSpatialReference  
Moves points of this geometry so that they can be represented in the precision of the geometry's associated spatial reference system. 
 
 
SpatialReference  
The spatial reference associated with this geometry.

Point  
A two dimensional point, optionally with measure, height, and ID attributes. 
 
Polygon  
A collection of rings ordered by their containment relationship; optionally has measure, height and ID attributes. 
 
Polyline  
An ordered collection of paths; optionally has measure, height and ID attributes.
