\arguments{
\item{x}{object of class \code{sfg}, \code{sfc} or \code{sf}}

\item{dist}{numeric; buffer distance for all, or for each of the elements in \code{x}; in case
\code{dist} is a \code{units} object, it should be convertible to \code{arc_degree} if
\code{x} has geographic coordinates, and to \code{st_crs(x)$units} otherwise}

\item{nQuadSegs}{integer; number of segments per quadrant (fourth of a circle), for all or per-feature}

\item{endCapStyle}{character; style of line ends, one of 'ROUND', 'FLAT', 'SQUARE'}

\item{joinStyle}{character; style of line joins, one of 'ROUND', 'MITRE', 'BEVEL'}

\item{mitreLimit}{numeric; limit of extension for a join if \code{joinStyle} 'MITRE' is used (default 1.0, minimum 0.0)}

\item{singleSide}{logical; if \code{TRUE}, single-sided buffers are returned for linear geometries,
in which case negative \code{dist} values give buffers on the right-hand side, positive on the left.}

\item{...}{ignored}

\item{preserveTopology}{logical; carry out topology preserving
simplification? May be specified for each, or for all feature geometries.
Note that topology is preserved only for single feature geometries, not for
sets of them. If not specified (i.e. the default), then it is internally
set equal to \code{FALSE} when the input data is specified with projected
coordinates or \code{sf_use_s2()} returns \code{FALSE}. Ignored in all the
other cases (with a warning when set equal to \code{FALSE}) since the
function implicitly calls \code{s2::s2_simplify} which always preserve
topological relationships (per single feature).}

\item{dTolerance}{numeric; tolerance parameter, specified for all or for each
feature geometry. If you run \code{st_simplify}, the input data is
specified with long-lat coordinates and \code{sf_use_s2()} returns
\code{TRUE}, then the value of \code{dTolerance} must be specified in
meters.}

\item{bOnlyEdges}{logical; if TRUE, return lines, else return polygons}

\item{envelope}{object of class \code{sfc} or \code{sfg} containing a \code{POLYGON} with the envelope for a voronoi diagram; this only takes effect when it is larger than the default envelope, chosen when \code{envelope} is an empty polygon}

\item{of_largest_polygon}{logical; for \code{st_centroid}: if \code{TRUE}, return centroid of the largest (sub)polygon of a \code{MULTIPOLYGON} rather than of the whole \code{MULTIPOLYGON}}

\item{dfMaxLength}{maximum length of a line segment. If \code{x} has geographical coordinates (long/lat), \code{dfMaxLength} is either a numeric expressed in meter, or an object of class \code{units} with length units \code{rad} or \code{degree}; segmentation in the long/lat case takes place along the great circle, using \link[lwgeom:geod]{st_geod_segmentize}.}
}
\value{
an object of the same class of \code{x}, with manipulated geometry.
}
\description{
Geometric unary operations on simple feature geometries. These are all generics, with methods for \code{sfg}, \code{sfc} and \code{sf} objects, returning an object of the same class. All operations work on a per-feature basis, ignoring all other features.
}
\details{
\code{st_buffer} computes a buffer around this geometry/each geometry. If any of \code{endCapStyle},
\code{joinStyle}, or \code{mitreLimit} are set to non-default values ('ROUND', 'ROUND', 1.0 respectively) then
the underlying 'buffer with style' GEOS function is used.
See \href{https://postgis.net/docs/ST_Buffer.html}{postgis.net/docs/ST_Buffer.html} for details.

\code{st_boundary} returns the boundary of a geometry

\code{st_convex_hull} creates the convex hull of a set of points

\code{st_simplify} simplifies lines by removing vertices.

\code{st_triangulate} triangulates set of points (not constrained). \code{st_triangulate} requires GEOS version 3.4 or above

\code{st_inscribed_circle} returns the maximum inscribed circle for polygon geometries. 
For \code{st_inscribed_circle}, if \code{nQuadSegs} is 0 a 2-point LINESTRING is returned with the
center point and a boundary point of every circle, otherwise a circle (buffer) is returned where
\code{nQuadSegs} controls the number of points per quadrant to approximate the circle.
\code{st_inscribed_circle} requires GEOS version 3.9 or above

\code{st_minimum_rotated_rectangle} returns the minimum
rotated rectangular POLYGON which encloses the input geometry. The
rectangle has width equal to the minimum diameter, and a longer
length. If the convex hill of the input is degenerate (a line or
point) a linestring or point is returned.

\code{st_voronoi} creates voronoi tesselation. \code{st_voronoi} requires GEOS version 3.5 or above

\code{st_polygonize} creates polygon from lines that form a closed ring. In case of \code{st_polygonize}, \code{x} must be an object of class \code{LINESTRING} or \code{MULTILINESTRING}, or an \code{sfc} geometry list-column object containing these

\code{st_line_merge} merges lines. In case of \code{st_line_merge}, \code{x} must be an object of class \code{MULTILINESTRING}, or an \code{sfc} geometry list-column object containing these

\code{st_centroid} gives the centroid of a geometry

\code{st_point_on_surface} returns a point guaranteed to be on the (multi)surface.

\code{st_reverse} reverses the nodes in a line

\code{st_node} adds nodes to linear geometries at intersections without a node, and only works on individual linear geometries

\code{st_segmentize} adds points to straight lines
