ST_GeomFromText(text [, srid])Spatial functions
Spatial functions provide functionality for working with geospatial data. Teiid Spring Boot relies on the JTS Topology Suite to provide partial compatibility with the OpenGIS Simple Features Specification For SQL Revision 1.1. For more information about particular functions, see the Open GIS specification or the PostGIS manual.
Most Geometry capabilities is limited to two dimensions due to the WKB and WKT formats.

Note

There might be minor differences between Teiid Spring Boot and pushdown results that will need to be further refined. |
