The algorithm requires polygons to be clockwise and not reentrant (self intersecting). The algorithm can support holes (as counter-clockwise polygons wholly inside their parent polygon), but requires additional algorithms to decide which polygons are holes. Merging of polygons can also be performed by a variant of the algorithm.
