Name

ST_Intersects — Tests if two geometries intersect (they have at least one point in common)

Synopsis

boolean ST_Intersects( geometry geomA , geometry geomB );

boolean ST_Intersects( geography geogA , geography geogB );

Beschreibung

Returns true if two geometries intersect. Geometries intersect if they have any point in common.

For geography, a distance tolerance of 0.00001 meters is used (so points that are very close are considered to intersect).

In mathematical terms: ST_Intersects(A, B) ⇔ A ⋂ B ≠ ∅

Geometries intersect if their DE-9IM Intersection Matrix matches one of:

  • T********

  • *T*******

  • ***T*****

  • ****T****

Spatial intersection is implied by all the other spatial relationship tests, except ST_Disjoint, which tests that geometries do NOT intersect.

[Note]

This function automatically includes a bounding box comparison that makes use of any spatial indexes that are available on the geometries.

Changed: 3.0.0 SFCGAL version removed and native support for 2D TINS added.

Enhanced: 2.5.0 Supports GEOMETRYCOLLECTION.

Enhanced: 2.3.0 Enhancement to PIP short-circuit extended to support MultiPoints with few points. Prior versions only supported point in polygon.

Performed by the GEOS module (for geometry), geography is native

Availability: 1.5 support for geography was introduced.

[Note]

For geography, this function has a distance tolerance of about 0.00001 meters and uses the sphere rather than spheroid calculation.

[Note]

NOTE: this is the "allowable" version that returns a boolean, not an integer.
