Name

ST_Touches — Tests if two geometries have at least one point in common, but their interiors do not intersect

Synopsis

boolean ST_Touches(geometry A, geometry B);

Descrizione

Returns TRUE if A and B intersect, but their interiors do not intersect. Equivalently, A and B have at least one point in common, and the common points lie in at least one boundary. For Point/Point inputs the relationship is always FALSE, since points do not have a boundary.

In mathematical terms: ST_Touches(A, B) ⇔ (Int(A) ⋂ Int(B) = ∅) ∧ (A ⋂ B ≠ ∅)

This relationship holds if the DE-9IM Intersection Matrix for the two geometries matches one of:

  • FT*******

  • F**T*****

  • F***T****

[Note]

Questa funzione incorpora l'uso di una comparazione tra i bounding box in modo da usare qualunque indice spaziale disponibile sulle geometrie. To avoid using an index, use _ST_Touches instead.
