To integrate JTS Topology Suite with Android Studio, follow these steps:

1. Download the JTS Topology Suite jar file from the official website (https://locationtech.github.io/jts/).

2. Create a new Android Studio project.

3. Create a new folder in the project directory called "libs".

4. Copy the JTS Topology Suite jar file into the "libs" folder.

5. Open the build.gradle file for the app module and add the following code inside the dependencies block:

files('libs/jts-core-1.16.1.jar')

1. Sync the project with Gradle.

2. Now the JTS Topology Suite library is ready to be used in your Android Studio project.

To test the integration, you can create a new instance of JTS Geometry in your MainActivity class and display it on the screen using a TextView or any other UI component:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    private TextView geometryTextView;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        geometryTextView = findViewById(R.id.geometryTextView);

        // Create a new instance of JTS Geometry
        Point point = new GeometryFactory().createPoint(new Coordinate(1.0, 1.0));

        // Display the geometry on the screen
        geometryTextView.setText(point.toString());
    }
}

Note: Make sure to import the JTS package in your MainActivity class:

import com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.*;
