Description

Takes intersectionMatrix and intersectionMatrixPattern and Returns true if the intersectionMatrix satisfies the intersectionMatrixPattern. For more information refer to Section 4.3.6, “Dimensionally Extended 9 Intersection Model (DE-9IM)”.

Availability: 2.0.0 - requires GEOS >= 3.3.0.

Examples

SELECT ST_RelateMatch('101202FFF', 'TTTTTTFFF') ;
-- result --
t
--example of common intersection matrix patterns and example matrices
-- comparing relationships of involving one invalid geometry and ( a line and polygon that intersect at interior and boundary)
SELECT mat.name, pat.name, ST_RelateMatch(mat.val, pat.val) As satisfied
    FROM
        ( VALUES ('Equality', 'T1FF1FFF1'),
                ('Overlaps', 'T*T***T**'),
                ('Within', 'T*F**F***'),
                ('Disjoint', 'FF*FF****') As pat(name,val)
        CROSS JOIN
