ST_MPointFromWKB function [Spatial]

Returns an ST_MultiPoint value, which is transformed from a LONG BINARY value containing the Well Known Binary (WKB) representation of an ST_MultiPoint

Syntax

[DBO.]ST_MPointFromWKB(wkb[, srid])

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
wkb	LONG BINARY	The WKB representation.
srid	INT	The SRID of the result. If not specified, the default is 0.

Returns

ST_MultiPoint Returns an ST_MultiPoint value created from the input string.
The spatial reference system identifier of the result is the given by parameter srid.

Remarks

The ST_MPointFromWKB function is equivalent to the following:

CREATE FUNCTION DBO.ST_MPointFromWKB( wkb LONG BINARY, srid INT DEFAULT 0 )
RETURNS ST_MultiPoint
BEGIN
    DECLARE geo ST_Geometry;
    
    set geo = ST_Geometry::ST_GeomFromWKB( wkb, srid );
    RETURN CAST( geo AS ST_MultiPoint);
END

Note

The ST_MPointFromWKB function is not present by default in newly created databases. Use the sa_install_feature system procedure to install the spatial SQL compatibility functions. See sa_install_feature system procedure.
