ST_GeomCollection

Definition

ST_GeomCollection constructs a geometry collection from a well-known text representation.

Syntax

Oracle

sde.st_multilinestring (wkt clob, srid integer)
sde.st_multipoint (wkt clob, srid integer)
sde.st_multipolygon (wkt clob, srid integer)

PostgreSQL

sde.st_multilinestring (wkt, srid integer)
sde.st_multilinestring (esri_shape bytea, srid integer)
sde.st_multipoint (wkt, srid integer)
sde.st_multipoint (esri_shape bytea, srid integer)
sde.st_multipolygon (wkt, srid integer)
sde.st_multipolygon (esri_shape bytea, srid integer)

Return type

ST_GeomCollection

Example

Create a table, geomcoll_test.

CREATE TABLE geomcoll_test (id integer, geometry sde.st_geometry);

INSERT INTO geomcoll_test (id, geometry) VALUES (
1901,
sde.st_multipoint ('multipoint (1 2, 4 3, 5 6)', 0)
);

INSERT INTO geomcoll_test (id, geometry) VALUES (
1902,
sde.st_multilinestring ('multilinestring ((33 2, 34 3, 35 6),
(28 4, 29 5, 31 8, 43 12), (39 3, 37 4, 36 7))', 0)
);

INSERT INTO geomcoll_test (id, geometry) VALUES (
1903,
sde.st_multipolygon ('multipolygon (((3 3, 4 6, 5 3, 3 3),
(8 24, 9 25, 1 28, 8 24), (13 33, 7 36, 1 40, 10 43, 13 33)))', 0)
);

Select the geometry collection from the geomcoll_test table.
