Overview

   This factory takes a feature with geometry and performs the requested tests 
   on the geometry. If the specified feature passes the requested tests, it will 
   be output to the VALID port. If the specified feature fails one or more of 
   the requested tests and REPAIR_MODE is specified, an attempt will be made to 
   repair the geometry, if repair is successful, it will be output to the 
   REPAIRED port. If REPAIR_MODE is not specified, it will be output to the 
   INVALID port. On INVALID or REPAIRED features, if an ISSUE_ATTR_NAME is 
   specified, this attribute will be used as a prefix for reporting details on 
   the problems found with the geometry.

Output Tags

   The GeometryValidationFactory supports the following output tags.
   
   REPAIRED 
   
      Feature with repaired geometries (only in repair mode).
   
   VALID 
   
      Features with valid geometries which are untouched.
   
   INVALID  
   
      Feature with invalid geometries (only in detect mode).
