    Description

      GeneralEnvelope supports the spanning of anti-meridian. DefaultGeographicBoundingBox needs similar support. This is especially important since such geographic bounding boxes exist in the EPSG database (for example the EPSG:2373 - USA - Alaska including EEZ). This imply:

      • relax the argument check done by the constructor and the setBounds(…) method;
      • make the add and intersect methods aware of anti-meridian spanning, in a similar way than what we did for GeneralEnvelope.

      The above-cited argument check may be replaced by an automatic normalization of longitude and latitude values (e.g. replace a longitude of 360° by 0°).
