Name

ST_CollectionHomogenize — Returns the simplest representation of a geometry collection.

Synopsis

geometry ST_CollectionHomogenize(geometry collection);

Descrição

Dada uma coleção geométrica, retorna a representação mais simples de seu conteúdo.

  • Homogeneous (uniform) collections are returned as the appropriate multi-geometry.

  • Heterogeneous (mixed) collections are flattened into a single GeometryCollection.

  • Collections containing a single atomic element are returned as that element.

  • Atomic geometries are returned unchanged. If required, these can be converted to a multi-geometry using ST_Multi.

[Warning]

This function does not ensure that the result is valid. In particular, a collection containing adjacent or overlapping Polygons will create an invalid MultiPolygon. This situation can be checked with ST_IsValid and repaired with ST_MakeValid.

Exemplos

Single-element collection converted to an atomic geometry

SELECT ST_AsText(ST_CollectionHomogenize('GEOMETRYCOLLECTION(POINT(0 0))'));

        st_astext
        ------------
        POINT(0 0)

Nested single-element collection converted to an atomic geometry:

SELECT ST_AsText(ST_CollectionHomogenize('GEOMETRYCOLLECTION(MULTIPOINT((0 0)))'));

        st_astext
        ------------
        POINT(0 0)

Collection converted to a multi-geometry:

SELECT ST_AsText(ST_CollectionHomogenize('GEOMETRYCOLLECTION(POINT(0 0),POINT(1 1))'));

        st_astext
        ---------------------
        MULTIPOINT((0 0),(1 1))

Nested heterogeneous collection flattened to a GeometryCollection:

SELECT ST_AsText(ST_CollectionHomogenize('GEOMETRYCOLLECTION(POINT(0 0), GEOMETRYCOLLECTION( LINESTRING(1 1, 2 2)))'));

        st_astext
        ---------------------
        GEOMETRYCOLLECTION(POINT(0 0),LINESTRING(1 1,2 2))

Collection of Polygons converted to an (invalid) MultiPolygon:

SELECT ST_AsText(ST_CollectionHomogenize('GEOMETRYCOLLECTION (POLYGON ((10 50, 50 50, 50 10, 10 10, 10 50)), POLYGON ((90 50, 90 10, 50 10, 50 50, 90 50)))'));

        st_astext
        ---------------------
        MULTIPOLYGON(((10 50,50 50,50 10,10 10,10 50)),((90 50,90 10,50 10,50 50,90 50)))
