The IM for the two disjoint geometries of dimension .zero is FF0FFF0F2. The IM for two dimension .zero geometries intersecting at a set of points is either 0F0FFF0F2, if neither geometry is a subset of the other, 0FFFFF0F2, if the first geometry is a proper subset of the second, 0F0FFFFF2, if the second geometry is a proper subset of the first, and FFFFFFFF2, if the two sets of points are identical.
**The dimension of the intersection of two geometries, one of which is dimension .one and the other dimension .zero, is either .zero or .false**
To determine if two geometries, one of size .one and the other of size .zero, intersect, each point must be checked to see if it lies on any of the line segments for the geometry of size .one. As soon as a point is found that does lie on a line segment, return a dimension of .zero, else return a dimension of .false.
The IM for the two disjoint geometries of dimensions .one and .zero, in that order, is FF1FF00F2.
