[section:union__4_with_strategy union_ (with strategy)]

'''<indexterm><primary>union_</primary></indexterm>'''
Combines two geometries which each other. 

[heading Description]
The free function union calculates the spatial set theoretic union of two geometries. 

[heading Synopsis]
``template<typename Geometry1, typename Geometry2, typename Collection, typename Strategy>
void union_(Geometry1 const & geometry1, Geometry2 const & geometry2, Collection & output_collection,
            Strategy const & strategy)``

[heading Parameters]

[table
[[Type] [Concept] [Name] [Description] ]
[[Geometry1 const &] [Any type fulfilling a Geometry Concept ] [geometry1] [A model of the specified concept ]]
[[Geometry2 const &] [Any type fulfilling a Geometry Concept ] [geometry2] [A model of the specified concept ]]
[[Collection &] [output collection, either a multi-geometry, or a std::vector<Geometry> / std::deque<Geometry> etc ] [output_collection] [the output collection ]]
[[Strategy const &] [Any type fulfilling a Union_ Strategy Concept ] [strategy] [The strategy which will be used for union_ calculations ]]
