"""Base Radiance Geometry class (e.g polygon, sphere, source, etc.).

Radiance supports a number of native geometry primitives. The one that is most
commonly used to represent planar geometry is a Polygon but many of the other
geometry primitives can be used to specify simple types of curved geometry with
a fraction of the file size, memory, and computational power needed to support
a planar approximation of curved geometry. More information on Radiance geometry
Primitives can be found at:
