044     * A coverage whose domain consists of a collection of {@linkplain Solid solids}. Solids or their
045     * boundaries may be of any shape. Generally, the solids that constitute the domain of a coverage
046     * are mutually exclusive and exhaustively partition the extent of the coverage, but this is not
047     * required.
048     * <p>
049     * <b>Example:</b> Buildings in an urban area could be represented as a set of unconnected
050     *                 {@linkplain Solid solids} each with attributes such as building name,
051     *                 address, floor space, and number of occupants.
052     * <p>
053     * As in the case of surfaces, the spatial domain of a discrete solid coverage may be a regular or
054     * semiregular tessellation of the extent of the coverage. The tessellation can be defined in terms
055     * of a 3 dimensional grid, where the set of grid cells is the spatial domain of the coverage.
