Name

ST_OffsetCurve — Returns an offset line at a given distance and side from an input line.

Synopsis

geometry ST_OffsetCurve(geometry line, float signed_distance, text style_parameters='');

Descripción

Return an offset line at a given distance and side from an input line. All points of the returned geometries are not further than the given distance from the input geometry. Useful for computing parallel lines about a center line.

For positive distance the offset is on the left side of the input line and retains the same direction. For a negative distance it is on the right side and in the opposite direction.

Units of distance are measured in units of the spatial reference system.

Note that output may be a MULTILINESTRING or EMPTY for some jigsaw-shaped input geometries.

The optional third parameter allows specifying a list of blank-separated key=value pairs to tweak operations as follows:

  • 'quad_segs=#' : number of segments used to approximate a quarter circle (defaults to 8).

  • 'join=round|mitre|bevel' : join style (defaults to "round"). 'miter' is also accepted as a synonym for 'mitre'.

  • 'mitre_limit=#.#' : mitre ratio limit (only affects mitred join style). 'miter_limit' is also accepted as a synonym for 'mitre_limit'.

Realizado por el módulo GEOS.

Behavior changed in GEOS 3.11 so offset curves now have the same direction as the input line, for both positive and negative offsets.

Disponibilidad: 2.0

Enhanced: 2.5 - added support for GEOMETRYCOLLECTION and MULTILINESTRING

[Note]

This function ignores the Z dimension. It always gives a 2D result even when used on a 3D geometry.
