Abstract
Methods and systems for creating and implementing improved routing polygon abstracts that can be used to efficiently find areas to route through in electrical designs, where the routing polygon abstracts include at least a horizontal routing polygon abstract, a maximum horizontal routing polygon abstract, a vertical routing polygon abstract, and a maximum vertical routing polygon abstract, that are created through various steps including bloating, shrinking, merging, and extending the objects towards an outer boundary.
