Name

ST_IsRing — Tests if a LineString is closed and simple.

Synopsis

boolean ST_IsRing(geometry g);

Descripción

Returns TRUE if this LINESTRING is both ST_IsClosed (ST_StartPoint(g) ~= ST_Endpoint(g)) and ST_IsSimple (does not self intersect).

This method implements the OGC Simple Features Implementation Specification for SQL 1.1. 2.1.5.1

This method implements the SQL/MM specification. SQL-MM 3: 7.1.6

[Note]

SQL-MM defines the result of ST_IsRing(NULL) to be 0, while PostGIS returns NULL.
