ST_EndPoint

Definition

ST_EndPoint returns the last point of a linestring.

Syntax

Oracle and PostgreSQL

sde.st_endpoint (line1 sde.st_geometry)

SQLite

st_endpoint (line1 geometryblob)

Return type

ST_Point

Example

The endpoint_test table stores the gid integer column, which uniquely identifies each row, and the ln1 ST_LineString column, which stores linestrings.

The INSERT statements insert linestrings into the endpoint_test table. The first linestring doesn't have z-coordinates or measures, while the second one does.

The query lists the gid column and the ST_Point geometry generated by the ST_EndPoint function.
