## Detailed Description

Implementation of Dimensionally Extended Nine-Intersection Model (DE-9IM) matrix.

Dimensionally Extended Nine-Intersection Model (DE-9IM) matrix. This class can used to represent both computed DE-9IM's (like 212FF1FF2) as well as patterns for matching them (like T*T******).

Methods are provided to:

- set and query the elements of the matrix in a convenient fashion
- convert to and from the standard string representation (specified in SFS Section 2.1.13.2).
- test to see if a matrix matches a given pattern string.

For a description of the DE-9IM, see the OpenGIS Simple Features Specification for SQL.

Todo:
  Suggestion: add equal and not-equal operator to this class.
