Name

ST_MaximumInscribedCircle — Retorna o centro geométrico de uma geometria.

Synopsis

(geometry, geometry, double precision) ST_MaximumInscribedCircle(geometry geom);

Descrição

Finds the largest circle that is contained within a (multi)polygon, or which does not overlap any lines and points. Returns a record with fields:

  • center - center point of the circle

  • nearest - a point on the geometry nearest to the center

  • radius - radius of the circle

For polygonal inputs, the circle is inscribed within the boundary rings, using the internal rings as boundaries. For linear and point inputs, the circle is inscribed within the convex hull of the input, using the input lines and points as further boundaries.

Availability: 3.1.0.

Requires GEOS >= 3.9.0.

Exemplos

Maximum inscribed circle of a polygon. Center, nearest point, and radius are returned.

SELECT radius, ST_AsText(center) AS center, ST_AsText(nearest) AS nearest
