Tests if a geometry value spatially contains another geometry value.

An inexpensive test if a geometry might contain another.

Tests if a geometry value is spatially covered by another geometry value.

An inexpensive test if a geometry might be covered by another.

Tests if a geometry value spatially covers another geometry value.

An inexpensive test if a geometry might cover another.

Tests if a geometry value crosses another geometry value.

Test if a geometry value is spatially disjoint from another value.

Tests if an ST_Geometry value is spatially equal to another ST_Geometry value.

An inexpensive test if a geometry is equal to another.

Test if a geometry value spatially intersects another value.

An inexpensive test if the two geometries might intersect.

Test if a geometry intersects a rectangle.

Tests if a geometry is identical to another geometry.

Tests if a geometry value overlaps another geometry value.

Tests if a geometry value is spatially related to another geometry value as specified by the intersection matrix. The ST_Relate method uses a 9-character string from the Dimensionally Extended 9 Intersection Model (DE-9IM) to describe the pair-wise relationship between two spatial data items. For example, the ST_Relate method determines if an intersection occurs between the geometries, and the geometry of the resulting intersection, if it exists. See also: How spatial relationships work.

Tests if a geometry value spatially touches another geometry value.

Tests if a geometry value is spatially contained within another geometry value.

Test if two geometries are within a specified distance of each other.

An inexpensive of whether two geometries might be within a specified distance of each other.

An inexpensive test if a geometry might be within another.
