Return the geometry as a Keyhole Markup Language (KML) element. There are several variants of this function. maximum number of decimal places used in output (defaults to 15), version default to 2 and default namespace is no prefix.
Version 1: ST_AsKML(geom_or_geog, maxdecimaldigits) / version=2 / maxdecimaldigits=15
Version 2: ST_AsKML(version, geom_or_geog, maxdecimaldigits, nprefix) maxdecimaldigits=15 / nprefix=NULL
Requires PostGIS be compiled with Proj support. Use PostGIS_Full_Version to confirm you have proj support compiled in. |
Availability: 1.2.2 - later variants that include version param came in 1.3.2 |
Enhanced: 2.0.0 - Add prefix namespace. Default is no prefix |
Changed: 2.0.0 - uses default args and supports named args |
AsKML output will not work with geometries that do not have an SRID |
This function supports 3d and will not drop the z-index.
