Module operators

Functions

bb_same

The ~= operator returns TRUE if the bounding box of geometry/geography A is the same as the bounding box of geometry/geography B.

contained_by

The @ operator returns TRUE if the bounding box of geometry A is completely contained by the bounding box of geometry B.

contains

The ~ operator returns TRUE if the bounding box of geometry A completely contains the bounding box of geometry B.

distance_2d

The <-> operator returns the 2D distance between A and B.

distance_2d_bbs

The <#> operator returns the 2D distance between A and B bounding boxes.

distance_3d_trajectories

The |=| operator returns the 3D distance between two trajectories.

distance_nd_bbs

The <<#>> operator returns the n-D distance between A and B bounding boxes.

distance_nd_centroids_bbs

The <<->> operator returns the n-D distance between the centroids of A and B bounding boxes.

g_same

The = operator returns TRUE if the coordinates and coordinate order geometry/geography A are the same as the coordinates and coordinate order of geometry/geography B.

intersects_2d

The && operator returns TRUE if the 2D bounding box of geometry A intersects the 2D bounding box of geometry B.

overlaps_or_above

The |&> operator returns TRUE if the bounding box of geometry A overlaps or is above the bounding box of geometry B, or more accurately, overlaps or is NOT below the bounding box of geometry B.

overlaps_or_below

The &<| operator returns TRUE if the bounding box of geometry A overlaps or is below of the bounding box of geometry B, or more accurately, overlaps or is NOT above the bounding box of geometry B.

overlaps_or_left

The &< operator returns TRUE if the bounding box of geometry A overlaps or is to the left of the bounding box of geometry B, or more accurately, overlaps or is NOT to the right of the bounding box of geometry B.

overlaps_or_right

The &> operator returns TRUE if the bounding box of geometry A overlaps or is to the right of the bounding box of geometry B, or more accurately, overlaps or is NOT to the left of the bounding box of geometry B.

strictly_above

The |>> operator returns TRUE if the bounding box of geometry A is strictly above the bounding box of geometry B.

strictly_below

The <<| operator returns TRUE if the bounding box of geometry A is strictly below the bounding box of geometry B.

strictly_left

The << operator returns TRUE if the bounding box of geometry A is strictly to the left of the bounding box of geometry B.

strictly_right

The >> operator returns TRUE if the bounding box of geometry A is strictly to the right of the bounding box of geometry B.
