Name

CG_Difference — Computes the geometric difference between two geometries

Synopsis

geometry CG_Difference( geometry geomA , geometry geomB );

설명

Computes the geometric difference between two geometries. The resulting geometry is a set of points that are present in geomA but not in geomB.

Performed by the SFCGAL module

[Note]

NOTE: this function returns a geometry.

Availability: 3.5.0

This method needs SFCGAL backend.

This function supports Triangles and Triangulated Irregular Network Surfaces (TIN).
