ST_RelateMatch

Description

Tests if a Dimensionally Extended 9-Intersection Model (DE-9IM) intersectionMatrix value satisfies an intersectionMatrixPattern . Intersection matrix values can be computed by ST_Relate .

For more information refer to Section 5.1, “Determining Spatial Relationships” .

Performed by the GEOS module

Examples

SELECT ST_RelateMatch('101202FFF', 'TTTTTTFFF') ;
-- result --
t

Patterns for common spatial relationships matched against intersection matrix values, for a line in various positions relative to a polygon

SELECT pat.name AS relationship, pat.val AS pattern,
       mat.name AS position, mat.val AS matrix,
       ST_RelateMatch(mat.val, pat.val) AS match
    FROM (VALUES ( 'Equality', 'T1FF1FFF1' ),
                 ( 'Overlaps', 'T*T***T**' ),
                 ( 'Within',   'T*F**F***' ),
                 ( 'Disjoint', 'FF*FF****' )) AS pat(name,val)

                 ('inside',           '1FF0FF212')) AS mat(name,val);
