ST_ConcaveHull — Computes a possibly concave geometry that contains all input geometry vertices
geometry ST_ConcaveHull(

;
A concave hull is a (usually) concave geometry which contains the input, and whose vertices are a subset of the input vertices. In the general case the concave hull is a Polygon. The concave hull of two or more collinear points is a two-point LineString. The concave hull of one or more identical points is a Point. The polygon will not contain holes unless the optional param_allow_holes
argument is specified as true.
One can think of a concave hull as "shrink-wrapping" a set of points. This is different to the convex hull, which is more like wrapping a rubber band around the points. A concave hull generally has a smaller area and represents a more natural boundary for the input points.
The param_pctconvex
controls the concaveness of the computed hull. A value of 1 produces the convex hull. Values between 1 and 0 produce hulls of increasing concaveness. A value of 0 produces a hull with maximum concaveness (but still a single polygon). Choosing a suitable value depends on the nature of the input data, but often values between 0.3 and 0.1 produce reasonable results.
Technically, the |
For point and linear inputs, the hull will enclose all the points of the inputs. For polygonal inputs, the hull will enclose all the points of the input and also all the areas covered by the input. If you want a point-wise hull of a polygonal input, convert it to points first using ST_Points.
This is not an aggregate function. To compute the concave hull of a set of geometries use ST_Collect (e.g. ST_ConcaveHull( ST_Collect( geom ), 0.80)
