Description

The ~= operator returns TRUE if the bounding box of raster A is the same as the bounding box of raster B.

	This operand will make use of any indexes that may be available on the rasters.

Examples

Very useful usecase is for taking two sets of single band rasters that are of the same chunk but represent different themes and creating a multi-band raster

SELECT ST_AddBand(prec.rast, alt.rast) As new_rast
    FROM prec INNER JOIN alt ON (prec.rast ~= alt.rast);
