   * An interface for parsing GeoJSON data into JTS {@link Geometry} objects.
   * This interface defines a contract for classes that convert JSON representations of geometries
   * into specific JTS geometry instances, such as Points, LineStrings, Polygons, etc.
   * The {@code GeometryParser} interface ensures a standard method is available for deserializing
   * GeoJSON structures into their corresponding JTS geometrical forms. Implementations of this interface
   * are responsible for handling the parsing logic for different types of geometries.

   * @param <T> the type of JTS Geometry that the parser will produce, such as Point, LineString, Polygon, etc.
