# Geofence _phpgeo_ has a polygon implementation which can be used to determinate if a geometry (point, line, polyline, polygon) is contained in it or not. A polygon consists of at least three points. WARNING: The calculation gives wrong results if the polygons crosses the 180/-180 degrees meridian. ``` php addPoint(new Coordinate(-12.085870,-77.016261)); $geofence->addPoint(new Coordinate(-12.086373,-77.033813)); $geofence->addPoint(new Coordinate(-12.102823,-77.030938)); $geofence->addPoint(new Coordinate(-12.098669,-77.006476)); $outsidePoint = new Coordinate(-12.075452, -76.985079); $insidePoint = new Coordinate(-12.092542, -77.021540); echo $geofence->contains($outsidePoint) ? 'Point 1 is located outside the polygon' . PHP_EOL : 'Point 1 is located inside the polygon' . PHP_EOL; echo $geofence->contains($insidePoint) ? 'Point 2 is located outside the polygon' . PHP_EOL : 'Point 2 is located inside the polygon' . PHP_EOL; ``` The code above will produce the output below: ``` plaintext Point 1 is located outside the polygon Point 2 is located inside the polygon ```
