geoIntersects(Geometry left, Geometry right, Decimal Places), Tests whether the left geometry intersects with the right geometry. |
Function: geoIntersects(Geometry left, Geometry right, Decimal Places)
Tests whether the left geometry intersects with the right geometry.
If passed a string the geometry functions will automatically convert it into a geometry object.
Syntax
geoIntersects( "Well Known Text" Left, "Well Known Text" Right geometryValueLeft, geometryValueRight, decimalPlaces )
...
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Well Known Text Left | String | Well known text (WKT) is a text mark-up language for representing vector geometry objects. |
| Well Known Text Right | String | Well known text (WKT) is a text mark-up language for representing vector geometry objects. |
Examples
| geometryValueLeft | WTK String or Geometry Object | Geometry value being used to calculate if it intersects the geometryValueRight. |
| geometryValueRight | WTK String or Geometry Object | The geometry being checked. |
| decimalPlaces | Integer | The number of decimal places to use in the geometry calculations. Defaults to 0 if not provided. Can also take negative values e.g. -1 uses geometry to the nearest 10. |
Examples
geoIntersects( "POLYGON ((30 10, 40 40, 20 40, 10 20, 30 10))", "POLYGON ((35 10, 45 45, 15 40, 10 20, 35 10))" )
Returns a Boolean true if the left geometry intersects with the right geometry.
