  - getCoordinateReferenceSystem
```
org.opengis.referencing.crs.CoordinateReferenceSystem getCoordinateReferenceSystem()
```
    Returns the two-dimensional horizontal coordinate reference system to which the vertices are referenced.
    
    Returns:
    
    the two-dimensional horizontal coordinate reference system to which the vertices are referenced.
  - getVertices
```
List<HorizontalPosition> getVertices()
```
    Returns the list of vertices that define this polygon in the horizontal plane. The coordinates of the vertices are defined in this object's coordinate reference system. The HorizontalPositions must have the same CRS as this object. Points returned here are in clockwise order. The polygon is considered closed.
    
    Returns:
    
    the list of vertices that define this polygon in the horizontal plane.
  - getBoundingBox
```
BoundingBox getBoundingBox()
```
    Returns:
    
    The MBR of this Polygon
