/**
 * @class   vtkLocator
 * @brief   abstract base class for objects that accelerate spatial searches
 *
 * vtkLocator is an abstract base class for spatial search objects, or
 * locators. The principle behind locators is that they divide 3-space into
 * small regions (or "buckets") that can be quickly found in response to
 * queries about point location, line intersection, or object-object
 * intersection.
 *
 * The purpose of this base class is to provide data members and methods
 * shared by all locators. The GenerateRepresentation() is one such
 * interesting method.  This method works in conjunction with
 * vtkLocatorFilter to create polygonal representations for the locator. For
 * example, if the locator is an OBB tree (i.e., vtkOBBTree.h), then the
 * representation is a set of one or more oriented bounding boxes, depending
 * upon the specified level.
 *
 * Locators typically work as follows. One or more "entities", such as points
 * or cells, are inserted into the locator structure. These entities are
 * associated with one or more buckets. Then, when performing geometric
 * operations, the operations are performed first on the buckets, and then if
 * the operation tests positive, then on the entities in the bucket. For
 * example, during collision tests, the locators are collided first to
 * identify intersecting buckets. If an intersection is found, more expensive
 * operations are then carried out on the entities in the bucket.
 *
 * To obtain good performance, locators are often organized in a tree
 * structure.  In such a structure, there are frequently multiple "levels"
 * corresponding to different nodes in the tree. So the word level (in the
 * context of the locator) can be used to specify a particular representation
 * in the tree.  For example, in an octree (which is a tree with 8 children),
 * level 0 is the bounding box, or root octant, and level 1 consists of its
 * eight children.
 *
 * @warning
 * There is a concept of static and incremental locators. Static locators are
 * constructed one time, and then support appropriate queries. Incremental
 * locators may have data inserted into them over time (e.g., adding new
 * points during the process of isocontouring).
