geoEnvelope(Geometry value, Decimal Places), Returns a geometry representing the envelope (rectangular bounding box) of the provided geometry. |
Function: geoEnvelope(Geometry
...
value, Decimal Places)
Returns a geometry representing the envelope (rectangular bounding box) of left the provided geometry.
If passed a string the geometry functions will automatically convert it into a geometry object.
Syntax
geoEnvelope( "Well Known Text" geometryValue, decimalPlaces)
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Well Known TextgeometryValue | WTK String Well known text (WKT) is a text mark-up language for representing vector geometry objectsor Geometry Object | The geometry used in the function to calculate its envelope (rectangular bounding box). |
| 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
