Crosses(g1, g2)

ST_Crosses() and Crosses() are synonyms. For more information, see the description of ST_Crosses().

Crosses() is deprecated; expect it to be removed in a future MySQL release. Use ST_Crosses() instead.

Distance(g1, g2)

ST_Distance() and Distance() are synonyms. For more information, see the description of ST_Distance().

Distance() is deprecated; expect it to be removed in a future MySQL release. Use ST_Distance() instead.

ST_Contains(g1, g2)

Returns 1 or 0 to indicate whether g1 completely contains g2. This tests the opposite relationship as ST_Within().

ST_Crosses(g1, g2)

The term spatially crosses denotes a spatial relation between two given geometries that has the following properties:

This function returns 1 or 0 to indicate whether g1 spatially crosses g2. If g1 is a Polygon or a MultiPolygon, or if g2 is a Point or a MultiPoint, the return value is NULL.

This function returns 0 if called with an inapplicable geometry argument type combination. For example, it returns 0 if the first argument is a Polygon or MultiPolygon and/or the second argument is a Point or MultiPoint.

Returns 1 if g1 spatially crosses g2. Returns NULL if g1 is a Polygon or a MultiPolygon, or if g2 is a Point or a MultiPoint. Otherwise, returns 0.

This function returns 0 if called with an inapplicable geometry argument type combination. For example, it returns 0 if the first argument is a Polygon or MultiPolygon and/or the second argument is a Point or MultiPoint.

ST_Crosses() and Crosses() are synonyms.

ST_Disjoint(g1, g2)

Returns 1 or 0 to indicate whether g1 is spatially disjoint from (does not intersect) g2.

ST_Distance(g1, g2)

Returns the distance between g1 and g2. If either argument is NULL or an empty geometry, the return value is NULL.

This function processes geometry collections by returning the shortest distance among all combinations of the components of the two geometry arguments.

If an intermediate or final result produces NaN or a negative number, an ER_GIS_INVALID_DATA error occurs.

ST_Equals(g1, g2)

Returns 1 or 0 to indicate whether g1 is spatially equal to g2.

mysql> SET @g1 = Point(1,1), @g2 = Point(2,2);
mysql> SELECT ST_Equals(@g1, @g1), ST_Equals(@g1, @g2);

+---------------------+---------------------+

ST_Intersects(g1, g2)

Returns 1 or 0 to indicate whether g1 spatially intersects g2.

ST_Overlaps(g1, g2)

Two geometries spatially overlap if they intersect and their intersection results in a geometry of the same dimension but not equal to either of the given geometries.

This function returns 1 or 0 to indicate whether g1 spatially overlaps g2.

This function returns 0 if called with an inapplicable geometry argument type combination. For example, it returns 0 if called with geometries of different dimensions or any argument is a Point.

ST_Touches(g1, g2)

Two geometries spatially touch if their interiors do not intersect, but the boundary of one of the geometries intersects either the boundary or the interior of the other.

This function returns 1 or 0 to indicate whether g1 spatially touches g2.

This function returns 0 if called with an inapplicable geometry argument type combination. For example, it returns 0 if either of the arguments is a Point or MultiPoint.

ST_Touches() and Touches() are synonyms.

ST_Within(g1, g2)

Returns 1 or 0 to indicate whether g1 is spatially within g2. This tests the opposite relationship as ST_Contains().

Touches(g1, g2)

ST_Touches() and Touches() are synonyms. For more information, see the description of ST_Touches().

Touches() is deprecated; expect it to be removed in a future MySQL release. Use ST_Touches() instead.
