Name

ST_CoveredBy — Tests if every point of A lies in B

Synopsis

boolean ST_CoveredBy(geometry geomA, geometry geomB);

boolean ST_CoveredBy(geography geogA, geography geogB);

설명

Returns true if every point in Geometry/Geography A lies inside (i.e. intersects the interior or boundary of) Geometry/Geography B. Equivalently, tests that no point of A lies outside (in the exterior of) B.

In mathematical terms: ST_CoveredBy(A, B) ⇔ A ⋂ B = A

ST_CoveredBy is the converse of ST_Covers. So, ST_CoveredBy(A,B) = ST_Covers(B,A).

Generally this function should be used instead of ST_Within, since it has a simpler definition which does not have the quirk that "boundaries are not within their geometry".

[Note]

This function automatically includes a bounding box comparison that makes use of any spatial indexes that are available on the geometries. To avoid index use, use the function _ST_CoveredBy.
[Important]

Enhanced: 3.0.0 enabled support for GEOMETRYCOLLECTION
[Important]

Do not use this function with invalid geometries. You will get unexpected results.

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

Not an OGC standard, but Oracle has it too.
