Name

ST_ShortestLine — Retorna a menor linha 2-dimensional entre duas geometrias

Synopsis

geometry ST_ShortestLine(geometry geom1, geometry geom2);

geography ST_ShortestLine(geography geom1, geography geom2, boolean use_spheroid = true);

Descrição

Returns the 2-dimensional shortest line between two geometries. The line returned starts in geom1 and ends in geom2. If geom1 and geom2 intersect the result is a line with start and end at an intersection point. The length of the line is the same as ST_Distance returns for g1 and g2.

Enhanced: 3.4.0 - support for geography.

Disponibilidade: 1.5.0
