ATTRIBUTES

    geom       -- mdsys.sdo_geometry Object
    tolerance  -- Standard SDO_TOLERANCE value.
                  Since we need the geometry's tolerance for some operations eg sdo_area etc
                  let's add it to the type rather than have to supply it all the time to member functions
    dPrecision -- Number of Significant Decimal Digits of precision. (PRECISION is an Oracle name)
                  Some operations require the comparison of two ordinates. For geodetic data this is
                  not the same as an Oracle tolerance. We allow a user to supply this value for all data
                  but if set to null it will assume a value based on the tolerance.
    projected  -- Whether mdsys.sdo_geometry ordinates are Geodetic (0), Projected (1), or NULL (not defined).
                  When creating and using bearing and distances one needs to know if the geometry
                  is projected or not. While one could do this by dynamic query to the database
                  each time it is needed, an additional property helps us to record this once.

15.8. T_GEOMETRY/ST_Append [ Methods ]

[ Top ] [ T_GEOMETRY ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_Append -- Appends sdo_geometry to underlying sdo_geometry.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Append ()
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Geometry Determinstic

RESULT

    MultiGeometry (T_GEOMETRY) -- If not already a multi geometry, returns multi-geometry object with 1 geometry;

DESCRIPTION

    Appends p_geom sdo_geometry value to underlying SELF.geom sdo_geometry.
    Can be used to append points to points, points to lines, lines to lines, lines to polygons etc.
    Detects if two adjacent vertices are within tolerance distance and merges if they are.
    For linestrings, p_concatenate mode of 0 appends without checking for duplicate end points and returns a multilinestring.
    If p_concatentate is 1 and an end/start point equality relationship is detected, only one coordinate is stored, and a single linestring returned.
    It is not implemented using SDO_UTIL.APPEND.

NOTES

    Oracle's SDO_UTIL.APPEND supports 2 and 3D geometies but SDO_UTIL.CONCAT_LINES only supports 2D data.
    Also, if underlying linestring geometry is measured, SDO_LRS.CONCATENATE_GEOM_SEGMENTS must be called.
    This function implements all these Oracle functions under one "umbrella".

EXAMPLE

      select t_geometry(SDO_GEOMETRY(3001,NULL,SDO_POINT_TYPE(157503.148,6568556.703,50.647),null,null)) as tPoint from dual

NAME

    ST_AsGeometryRow -- Simply returned T_GEOMETRY as an T_GEOMETRYROW object.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_AsGeometryRow (p_gid in integer default ),
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_GEOMETRYROW Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    T_GEOMETRIES is defined as a table of T_GEOMETRYROW.
    Functions like ST_Dump break up an sdo_geometry and returns them as T_GEOMETRYROW objects within a T_GEOMETRIES object.

EXAMPLE

    select &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Geometry(SDO_GEOMETRY(2005, NULL, NULL, SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1, 1, 1), SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(10.719, 8.644)),0.005,3,1)

NOTES

    Is an implementation of OGC ST_AsText method.
    Any polygon containing optimized rectangles rings is converted to its 5 point equivalent.
    Only supports 2D geometries.

TODO

    Convert Optimized Rectangles to BBOX elements.
    Create ST_AsEWKT() method and ST_FromEWKT() or use SC4O Java methods.

                       P_method     In Integer Default 1,
                       P_Seed_Value In Number  Default Null,
                       p_loops      in integer Default 10)
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_GEOMETRY deterministic

DESCRIPTION

    This function creates a single centroid if a single polygon.
    The position of the centroid is computed in the longest segment defined by a constant X or Y ordinate.
    There are a number of options for computing a centroid controlled by p_method; these are described
    in the ARGUMENTS section of this document.

ARGUMENTS

    p_method     (integer) --  0 = Use average of all Area's X Ordinates for starting centroid Calculation
                              10 = Use average of all Area's Y Ordinates for starting centroid Calculation
                               1 = Use centre X Ordinate of geometry MBR
                              11 = Use centre Y Ordinate of geometry MBR
                               2 = User supplied starting seed X ordinate value
                              12 = User supplied starting seed Y ordinate value
                               3 = Use MDSYS.SDO_GEOM.SDO_CENTROID function
                               4 = Use MDSYS.SDO_GEOM.SDO_POINTONSURFACE function.
    p_seed_value (number) -- Starting ordinate X/Y for which a Y/X that is inside the polygon is returned.
    p_loops     (integer) -- In the rare case that the first pass calculation of a centroid fails (not p_method 3 or 4)
                              if p_loops is > 0 then the p_seed_value is adjusted by SELF.tolerance and another attempt it made.
                              When the number of loops is exhausted NULL is returned (very rare).

RESULT

    point (T_GEOMETRY) - Centroid of input object.

             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_GEOMETRY deterministic

DESCRIPTION

    This function creates a single centroid if the line-string being operated on
    has a single part. The position of the centroid is either the mid-length point
    if the line is not measured, or the mid-measure position if measured. For a single
    line-string any supplied p_option value is ignored.
    If the geometry is a multi-linestring a number of options are available.
       - LARGEST  -- Returns centroid of largest (measure/length) line-string in multi-linestring (DEFAULT)
       - SMALLEST -- Returns centroid of smallest (measure/length) line-string in multi-linestring
       - MULTI    -- Returns all centroid for all parts of multi-linestring as a single multi-point (x005 gtype) geometry.
    The centroid of each part is constructed using the same rules as for a single line-string.

ARGUMENTS

    p_option (VarChar2) - LARGEST, SMALLEST, or MULTI. Ignored if single linestring.
    p_unit   (VarChar2) - Unit of measure for distance calculations.

RESULT

    point (T_GEOMETRY) - Centroid of input object.

NAME

   ST_Cogo2Polygon - Creates single polygon exterior ring from supplied bearing and distance instructions.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Cogo2Polygon(p_bearings_and_distances in &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_BEARING_DISTANCES)
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Geometry Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    This function takes a set of bearings and distances supplied using array of t_bearing_and_distance instructions, and creates a closed exterior ring from it.
    The underlying geometry must be a single start point.
    The final geometry will have its XY ordinates rounded to SELF.dPrecision.
    Z ordinates are not rounded as they are provided (as is) in the t_bearing_distance.z values.

ARGUMENTS

    p_bearings_and_distances (t_bearings_distances) - Array of T_BEARING_DISTANCE instructions.

RESULT

    polygon (t_geometry) - New polygon object with a single exterior ring.
  NOTE
    Measured polygons not supported.

TODO

    Create Static version where all instructions are provided including start point.

15.23. T_GEOMETRY/ST_Compress [ Methods ]

[ Top ] [ T_GEOMETRY ] [ Methods ]

NAME

   ST_Compress - Turns coordinate array of linestring/polygon into equivalent to MoveTo and LineTo components.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Decompress(p_delta_factor in number default 1,
                                  p_origin       in &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Vertex default null )
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Geometry Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Starting point as abolute value is kept if p_origin is null.
    p_origin could contain lower left ordinate of the MBR of the geometry.
    Extracts pairs of adjacent vertices, substracts their ordinates and applies delta factor.
    p_delta_factor is scalar applied to difference between two vertices in a linestring.
    EG:
      * 1.0 leaves delta XY alone
      * 0.5 divides each delta x and y by 2
      * 0.1 divides each delta x and y by 10
    No rounding occurs as full precision is needed for ST_Decompress.

ARGUMENTS

    p_delta_factor (number)   -- Coordinate delta multiplying factor.
    p_origin       (t_vertex) -- Contains starting point for decompressing geometry cf MoveTo in SVG.

RESULT

    Compressed Linestring (t_geometry) - New polygon/linestring object with coordinates compressed.

[ Top ] [ T_GEOMETRY ] [ Methods ]

NAME

   ST_Decompress - Reverse Compress applied by ST_Compress with same p_factor_applied and p_origin.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Decompress(p_delta_factor in number default 1)
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Geometry Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Starting point as abolute value is kept if p_origin is null.
    p_origin could contain lower left ordinate of the MBR of the geometry.
    Extracts pairs of adjacent vertex deltas, applies inverse delta factor to each, and creates new point.
    p_delta_factor is scalar applied to difference between two vertices in a linestring.
    Must be same p_delta_factor applied to original ST_Compress:
      * 1.0 leaves delta XY alone
      * 0.5 divides each delta x and y by 2
      * 0.1 divides each delta x and y by 10

ARGUMENTS

    p_delta_factor (number)   -- Coordinate delta multiplying factor.
    p_origin       (t_vertex) -- Contains starting point for decompressing geometry cf MoveTo in SVG.

RESULT

15.28. T_GEOMETRY/ST_Densify [ Methods ]

[ Top ] [ T_GEOMETRY ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_Densify -- Implements a basic geometry densification algorithm.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Densify(p_distance In Number,
                               p_unit     In Varchar2 Default NULL)
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_GEOMETRY deterministic

DESCRIPTION

    This function add vertices to an existing vertex-to-vertex described (m)linestring or (m)polygon sdo_geometry.
    New vertices are added in such a way as to maintain existing vertices.
    That is, no existing vertices are removed.
    Densification occurs on a single vertex-to-vertex segment basis.
    If segment length is < p_distance no vertices are added.
    No vertex is ever added such that the distance to the next vertex is < SELF.tolerance.
    The implementation does not guarantee that the added vertices will be exactly p_distance apart.
    The final vertex separation will be BETWEEN p_distance AND p_distance * 2 .

    The implementation honours 3D and 4D shapes and averages these dimension values
    for the new vertices.

    The function does not support compound objects or objects with circles,
    optimised rectangles or described by arcs.

    Any non (m)polygon/(m)linestring shape is simply returned as it is.

ARGUMENTS

    p_distance (Number) -- The desired optimal distance between added vertices. Must be > SELF.tolerance.
    p_unit   (varchar2) -- Unit of measure associated with p_distance and for calculations.

RESULT

    geometry (T_GEOMETRY) -- Densified geometry.

             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_GEOMETRY Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Function that extends the supplied linestring at either its start or end (p_end).
    p_length should alway be positive. If it is negative ST_Reduce is called: see ST_Reduce documentation.
    And extension occurs in the direction of a line formed by the first and second vertices (if START) or last and second last vertices (if END).
    p_end value of BOTH means line is extended at both ends.

TODO

    Add p_keep parameter:
      If p_keep is set to 1, the start or end vertex is kept and a new vertex added at the extended length from the start/end.
      If p_keep is 0, the actual first or last vertex is moved.

ARGUMENTS

    p_length       (number) - If negative ST_Reduce is called on the linestring.
                              If positive the linestring is extended.
                              Distance must be expressed in SRID or p_unit units
    p_start_end  (varchar2) - START means extend line at the start; END means extend at the end, and BOTH means extend at both START and END of line.
    p_unit       (varchar2) - Allows default Oracle unit of measure (UoM) to be overridden eg if unit M is default for SRID then unit=CM will compute in centimeters.
    p_keep            (int) - (Future) Keep existing first/last vertex and add new (1) vertices, or move (0) existing start/end vertex.

RESULT

    linestring (t_geometry) - Input geometry extended as instructed.

ERRORS

    The following exceptions can be thrown:
      ORA-20120 - Geometry must not be null or empty (*ERR*)
                  Where *ERR* is replaced with specific error
      ORA-20121 - Geometry must be a single linestring.
      ORA-20122 - Start/End parameter value (*VALUE*) must be START, BOTH or END
                  Where *VALUE* is the supplied, incorrect, value.
      ORA-20123 - p_length value must not be 0 or NULL.

    p_w_formula (varchar2) -- Mathematical formula to be applied to W/M ordinate

RESULT

    Modified Geometry (T_Geometry) -- Original geometry with modified ordinates

DESCRIPTION

    The formula may reference the ordinates of the geometry via the columns X, Y, Z and W
    (the T_Vertex fields produced by SDO_Util.GetVertices function) keywords.
    These keywords can be referred to multiple times in a formula
    (see 'ROUND ( z / ( z * dbms_random.value(1,10) ), 3 )' in the example
    that processes a 3D linestring below).
    Since the formula are applied via SQL even Oracle intrinsic columns like ROWNUM
    can be used (see '(rownum * w)' below). One can also use any Oracle function,
    eg RANDOM: this includes functions in packages such as DBMS_RANDOM
    eg 'ROUND ( Y * dbms_random.value ( 1,1000) ,3 )') as well.

[ Top ] [ T_GEOMETRY ] [ Functions ]

NAME

    ST_Flip_Segments - Turns linestring and polygon rings into segments and then flips each vector until all point in the same direction.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Flip_Vectors 
             Return geometry

EXAMPLE

    With gc As (
    select geometry::STGeomFromText(
    'GEOMETRYCOLLECTION(
    POLYGON((10 0,20 0,20 20,10 20,10 0)),
    POLYGON((20 0,30 0,30 20,20 20,20 0)),
    POINT(0 0))',0) as geom
    )
    select v.sx,v.sy,v.ex,v.ey,count(*)
      from gc as a
           cross apply
           [dbo].[STVectorize] (
             [dbo].[STFlipVectors] ( a.geom )
           ) as v
     group by v.sx,v.sy,v.ex,v.ey
    go

DESCRIPTION

    This function extracts all vectors from supplied linestring/polygon rings, and then flips each vector until all point in the same direction.
    This function is useful for such operations as finding "slivers" between two polygons that are supposed to share a boundary.
    Once the function has flipped the vectors the calling function can analyse the vectors to do things like find duplicate segment
    which are part of a shared boundaries that are exactly the same (no sliver).
  RETURN
    geometry (GeometryCollection) - The set of flipped vectors.

    If T_GEOMETRY's projected attribute is 1, X/Y are returned for the SDO_DIM_NAMES; if 0, LONG/LAT are returned as the SDO_DIM_NAMES

RESULT

    polygon (T_GEOMETRY) -- Returns polygon with single optimized rectangle exterior ring.

DESCRIPTION

    Function that inserts the vertex p_vertex into into supplied geometry as position p_vertex.id.
    All existing vertices are shuffled down ie Insert is "add before" except at end.
    Supplied p_vertex must have Z and W coded correctly.
    p_vertex.id values:
      1. null -> defaults to 1;
      2. -1   -> maximum number of points ie SELF.ST_NumPoints()
      3. Greater than SELF.ST_NumPoints() -> maximum number of points ie SELF.ST_NumPoints()
    The inserted coordinate's XY ordinates are rounded to SELF.dprecision number of decimal digits of dprecision.

ARGUMENTS

    p_vertex    (t_vertex) -- Insert coordinate. p_vertex.id is position in geometry to insert new vertex: between 1 and SELF.ST_NumPoints.

             Return integer Deterministic,

NOTES

    Is an implementation of OGC ST_isEmpty method.

DESCRIPTION

    This function checks to see if the underlying object is empty.
    While some Spatial Types define empty via WKT string such as 'LINESTRING EMPTY', for oracle
    we determine that an sdo_geometry object is Empty if:
    1. The object is null;
    2. The object exists but all of its 5 attributes (sdo_gtype, sdo_srid, sdo_point, sdo_elem_info, sdo_ordinates) are null.
    3. Or the object exists but all of its 3 main geometric attributes (sdo_point, sdo_elem_info, sdo_ordinates) are null.

RESULT

    1/0 (integer) -- 1 if Empty, 0 if not.

NOTES

    Is an implementation of OGC ST_isSimple method.

DESCRIPTION

    This function checks to see if the underlying object is simple.
    A simple linestring is one for which none of its segments cross each other.
    This is not the same as a closed linestring whose start/end points are the same as in a polygon ring.
    This function does this by using the Oracle MDSYS.ST_GEOMETRY.ST_isSimple method.

    equidistant from two separate segments/segments of the line-string, ST_Project_Point
    returns the first.

ARGUMENTS

    p_point (MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY) - A point(2001) mdsys.sdo_geometry object describing the point for splitting the linestring.
    p_unit  (VarChar2)           - Unit of measure for distance calculations.

DESCRIPTION

    If a geometry is coded with an SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY this function will examine the triplets that describe
    each element and returns one of counts depending on the input parameter.
    If the input parameter is 0 all elements are counted: For example is a single polygon has a single outer ring (1),
    but that ring is coded with vertex-connected and circular-arc segments (2), then 1 + 2 =3 is returned.
    If 1 is the supplied input only the number of sub-elements that describe the outer ring are counted and returned.

DESCRIPTION

    Function that moves the linestring components of the underlying mdsys.sdo_geometry left/right by a fixed amount.
    Bends in the linestring, when moved, can remain vertex-connected or be converted to curves.
    Does not handle situations where supplied distance results in a segment disappearing.

ARGUMENTS

    p_offset  (Number) - Value +/- integer value.
    p_curved (Integer) - Boolean flag
    p_unit  (VarChar2) - Unit of measure for distance calculations.

RESULT

    geometry (T_GEOMETRY) -- Input geometry moved parallel by p_distance units

             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_GEOMETRY deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Function that creates a rectangle/polygon geometry around each point in the underlying point/multipoint mdsys.sdo_geometry.
    As there is no angle parameter, the rectangles are oriented to the XY axes.
    If the rectangles need to be rotated, consider using ST_Rotate until such time that this function is modified to support angles.

ARGUMENTS

    p_length (Number)   - +ve value that describes the longest side of the retangle.
    p_width  (Number)   - +ve value that describes the shortest side of the retangle.

NOTES

    Only supports point or multipoint geometries.
    If geometry is measured, measure will be lost.

TODO

    Add support for rotating the rectangles by adding a p_angle and a p_unit parameter.

RESULT

    geometry (T_GEOMETRY) -- (Multi)Polygon geometry where all input vertices are converted to rectangles.

15.126. T_GEOMETRY/ST_Reduce [ Methods ]

[ Top ] [ T_GEOMETRY ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_Reduce -- Function that can shorten underlying linestring at one or both ends.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Reduce (p_length    in number,
                               p_start_end in varchar2 default 'START',
                               p_unit      in varchar2 default null)
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_GEOMETRY Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Function that reduces the supplied linestring at either its start or end (p_start_end).
    A p_start_end value of BOTH means line is reduced at both ends.
    p_length is always assumed to be positive, any negative value is passed through the ABS function.
    If p_length is 0 the geometry is returned unchanged.
    A reduction can be thought of as the equivalent of extracting a new segment between two measures: p_length ... (SELF.ST_Length() - p_length).

ARGUMENTS

    p_length       (number) - If negative the linestring is shortened.
                              If positive the linestring is extended via a call to ST_Extend.
                              Distance must be expressed in SRID or p_unit units
    p_start_end  (varchar2) - START means reduce line at the start; END means reduce at the end, and BOTH means reduce at both START and END of line.
    p_unit       (varchar2) - Allows default Oracle unit of measure (UoM) to be overridden eg if unit M is default for SRID then unit=CM will compute in centimeters.

RESULT

    linestring (t_geometry) - Input geometry reduced as instructed.

EXAMPLE

    -- Reduce more than length of line.
    Select T_Geometry(
             mdsys.sdo_geometry('LINESTRING(1 1,2 2)',NULL),

      Return varchar2 deterministic

DESCRIPTION

    Compares the first geometry against the second using SDO_GEOM.RELATE to discover if the two geometry objects have the required relationship.
    The relationhip names (from the Oracle documentation are):

      DISJOINT           : The boundaries and interiors do not intersect.
      TOUCH              : The boundaries intersect but the interiors do not intersect.
      OVERLAPBDYDISJOINT : The interior of one object intersects the boundary and interior of the other object, but the two boundaries do not intersect.
                           This relationship occurs, for example, when a line originates outside a polygon and ends inside that polygon.
      OVERLAPBDYINTERSECT: The boundaries and interiors of the two objects intersect.
      EQUAL              : The two objects have the same boundary and interior.
      CONTAINS           : The interior and boundary of one object is completely contained in the interior of the other object.
      COVERS             : The interior of one object is completely contained in the interior or the boundary of the other object and their boundaries intersect.
      INSIDE             : The opposite of CONTAINS. A INSIDE B implies B CONTAINS A.

                    )
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_GEOMETRY deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Function which rotates the underlying geometry around a supplied rotation point p_rotate_point a required angle in radians.
    See NOTES for valid parameter values.
    Supports 2D and 3D geometry rotation.

ARGUMENTS

    p_angle              (number) - Rotation angle expressed in degrees (see COGO.ST_Radians and COGO.ST_Degrees).
    p_dir               (integer) - Rotation parameter for x(0), y(1), or z(2)-axis roll.
                                    You cannot set p_dir => 0, 1 or 2, only -1, -2, -3. They don't see to affect the result.
    p_rotate_point (sdo_geometry) - XY/2D Point geometry
    p_line1        (sdo_geometry) - Y ordinate of rotation point.

RESULT

    geometry -- Input geometry rotated by supplied values.

NOTES

    Is wrapper over mdsys.SDO_UTIL.AffineTransforms
    For 2D geometry rotation, p_angle and p_rotate_point must not be null.
    For 3D geometry rotation, p_angle must not be null
    For 3D geometry rotation, both p_dir and p_line1 cannot be null
    For 3D geometries, rotation uses either:
      1. the angle and dir values, or
      2. the angle and line1 values.

NAME

    ST_Segmentize -- This function processes underlying non-point geometries and returns all segments that fall within the defined parameters eg measures covered by range p_start_value .. p_end_value .

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Segmentize(p_filter        in varchar2 default 'ALL',
                                  p_id            in integer  default null,
                                  p_vertex        in T_Vertex default null,
                                  p_filter_value  in number   default null,
                                  p_start_value   in number   default null,
                                  p_end_value     in number   default null,
                                  p_unit          in varchar2 default null)
             Return T_Segments deterministic,

ARGUMENTS

    p_filter     (varchar2) -- One of ALL, DISTANCE, ID, MEASURE, RANGE, X or Y
    p_id          (integer) -- Segment id should be in range 1..SELF.ST_NumSegments. -1 means last.
    p_vertex     (t_vertex) -- Point object used to return nearest segments/segments.
    p_filter_value  (float) -- Single measure (or length) along line.
    p_start_value   (float) -- Measure/Length defining start point of located geometry.
    p_end_value     (float) -- Measure/Length defining end point of located geometry.
    p_unit       (varchar2) -- Unit of measure (UoM eg Centimeter) for length/distance calculations.

RESULT

    Set of segments (T_SEGMENTs) -- A table array of T_SEGMENT objects.

DESCRIPTION

    Given a start and end length, this function breaks the underlying linestring into its fundamental 2 Point LineString or 3 Point CircularStrings.
    What is returned depends on the value of p_filter. The following values are supported:
      1. ALL      -- All other parameters are ignored, and all segments are extracted and returned.
      2. DISTANCE -- Segments within shortest distance to p_vertex.
      3. ID       -- Returns segment at this position in geometry.
      4. MEASURE  -- All measured segments whose measure range contains p_filter_value value, or if not measured, all segments who length from start contains p_filter_value.
      5. RANGE    -- All segments whose measure range overlaps p_start_value .. p_end_value.
                     If the underlying geometry is not measured, p_start_value .. p_end_value are interpreted as lengths from the staring point ie p_start_Length..p_end_length.
      6. X        -- Find and return all segments whose X ordinate range (eg end.x = start.x) contains the supplied (p_filter_value) X ordinate value.
      7. Y        -- Find and return all segments whose Y ordinate range (eg end.Y = start.Y) contains the supplied (p_filter_value) Y ordinate value.
    If a segment's end point = p_start_value then it is not returned but the next segment, whose StartPoint = p_start_value is returned.

NOTES

    Supports linestrings with CircularString elements.
    Return is NOT Pipelined

[ Top ] [ T_GEOMETRY ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_Split -- Splits linestring or multi-linestring object at closest point on linestring to supplied T_Vertex.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Split (p_vertex in &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Vertex,

             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_GEOMETRIES Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Using supplied point, this function splits a linestring or multi-linestring object
    at its closest point on linestring. Since the closest point may occur more than once,
    multiple linestrings may be returned. Normally the point should lie on the linestring at
    a vertex or between two vertices but the algorithm used will split a line even if
    the point does not lie on the line. Where the point does not lie on the linestring
    the algorithm approximates the nearest point on the linestring to the supplied point
    and splits it there: the algorithm is ratio based and will not necessarily be accurate
    for geodetic data. The function supports linestrings with circular arcs.

ARGUMENTS

    p_point (MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY) - A point(2001) mdsys.sdo_geometry object describing the point for splitting the linestring.
    p_unit  (VarChar2)           - Unit of measure for distance calculations.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Split_Segments(p_vertex in &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Vertex,
                                     p_unit   in varchar2    DEFAULT null,
                                     p_pairs  in integer DEFAULT 0)
                                 Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_SEGMENTs Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Using supplied vertex, the geometry is split at the nearest point on the geometry.
    Normally the vertex should lie on the linestring at a specific vertex or between two
    vertices but the algorithm used will split a line even if the supplied vertex does not
    lie on the line. Where the point does not lie on the linestring the algorithm approximates
    the nearest point on the linestring to the supplied point and splits it there.
    Where a linestring splits an existing segment between two vertices, two halfs of the segment
    are returned. If the split point is at an exact vertex the segment before and after are returned.
    If the linestring is split at the start, the previous segment returned is null, and for the end
    point the second segment returns is null. Two segments are always returned.
    Since the closest point may occur more than once because the supplied vertex is perfectly between
    two line-string segments all possible results are returned. The first pair occurs earlier in the
    linestring than the later ones.
    If p_pairs is set to 0, only the first split segments are returned.
    The algorithm is ratio based and will not necessarily be accurate for geodetic data.
    The function supports linestrings with circular arcs.

ARGUMENTS

    p_vertex (T_VERTEX) - A vertex point used to split the linestring.
    p_unit   (VarChar2) - Unit of measure for distance calculations.
    p_pairs  (Integer)  - 0 : Return first split point's segments if more than one exists;
                          1 : Return all split point segments.

RESULT

    segments (T_SEGMENTS) - One or more segment objects.

DESCRIPTION

    Function that computes spatial extent of internal geometry, then uses the
    p_tile_x and p_tile_y extents to compute the number of tiles that cover it.
    The number of columns and rows (tiles) that cover this area is calculated using p_Tile_X/p_Tile_Y which are in SRID units.
    The tiles are written out with their col/row reference using the T_GRID object type
    All rows and columns are visited, with geometry objects being created that represent each tile.
    Geometry object created can be:
      TILE  -- Single polygon per grid cell/Tile (optimized rectangle).
      BOTH  -- Single polygon per grid cell/Tile (optimized rectangle) with centre point coded in SDO_POINT_TYPE structure.
    When polygon tiles are to be returned, they can represent:
      MBR       -- The entire extent of the underlying geometry;
      TOUCH     -- Just those touching the input geometry (Intersects);
      CLIP      -- Where tile has geometric intersection with the underlying geometry it is clipped to the underlying geometry.
      HALFCLIP  -- Clipped tiles that touch boundary where area is > 1/2 tile
      HALFTOUCH -- Tiles that touch boundary where area is > 1/2 tile

ARGUMENTS

    p_Tile_X      (number) -- Size of a Tile's X dimension in real world units.
    p_Tile_Y      (number) -- Size of a Tile's Y dimension in real world units.
    p_grid_type (varchar2) -- Returned geometry is either 'TILE','POINT' or 'BOTH'
    p_option    (varchar2) -- MBR       -- Tiles for all geometry's MBR
                              TOUCH     -- Only tiles that touch geometry
                              CLIP      -- Return tiles for geometry only but clip using geometry boundary
                              HALFCLIP  -- Return clipped tiles that touch boundary where area is > 1/2 tile
                              HALFTOUCH -- Return tiles that touch boundary where area is > 1/2 tile
    p_unit      (varchar2) -- Unit of measure for distance calculations.

RESULT

    A Table of the following is returned
    (
      gcol Integer      -- The column reference for a tile
      grow Integer      -- The row reference for a tile
      geom sdo_geometry -- The polygon geometry covering the area of the Tile.
    )

NOTES

    Following exceptions can the thrown:
      -20120 'Geometry must not be null or empty (*ERR*)'
      -20121 'Unsupported geometry type (*GTYPE*)'
      -20122 'p_grid_type parameter value (*VALUE*) must be TILE, POINT or BOTH'
      -20123 'p_option value (*VALUE*) must be MBR, TOUCH, CLIP, HALFCLIP or HALFTOUCH.'

NAME

    ST_To3D -- Converts underlying 2D or 4D geometry to a 3D geometry.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_To3D (p_zOrdToKeep IN Integer)
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_GEOMETRY Deterministic

DESCRIPTION

    This Function checks if underlying mdsys.sdo_geometry is 2D, converts it to 3D with NULL Z ordinates.
    If mdsys.sdo_geometry is 4D it is reduced to 3D with p_zordtokeep indicating which non-2D ordinate
    to keep eg if 4 then result is XYW; if 3 then XYZ.

ARGUMENTS

    p_zOrdToKeep -- Ignored if 2D, otherwise if moving down from 4D to 3D indicates which ord to keep ie 3 or 4 (cf LRS)

RESULT

    New 3D Geom (T_GEOMETRY) -- Underlying mdsys.sdo_geometry reduced or increased to 3D.

[ Top ] [ T_GEOMETRY ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_TravellingSalesman - Constructs a path through a set of points.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_TravellingSalesman(p_start_gid   in integer,
                                          p_start_point in mdsys.sdo_point_type,
                                          p_geo_fence   in mdsys.sdo_geometry,
                                          p_unit        in varchar2 default 'Meter' )
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Geometry Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    This function implements a very simple traveling salesman's route through a set of points.
    The underlying geometry must be a MultiPoint object.
    The starting point may be a point within the existing underlying geometry or a user provided point.
    When p_geo_fence is provided it should be a MultiLineString object eg a set of street centrelines aggregated using SDO_AGGR_UNION.
    If p_geo_fence is 2D all linestrings in it are of equal weight.
    If p_geo_fence has a Z ordinate, its values define an order in the geofences. 
    The value that must be assigned to the z ordinate of a linestring which forms a hard boundary (such as a physical fence) must be 9.
    All other Z values should be given values below 9. So, z=5 could denote a major road, while z=1 is a local street, and z=0 might mean a walking track.
    When determining the next point to move to, this z ordering is used in determining where to move.
    If the set of nearby objects contained a z=9 object, it would be removed from the set and the next highest chosen.

ARGUMENTS

    p_start_gid          (integer) - A vertex that exists in the underlying geometry whose Z has this value.
    p_start_point (sdo_point_type) - A vertex that may not exist in the underlying geometry, algorithm finds nearest point in underlying geometry to start.
    p_geo_fence     (sdo_geometry) - A collection of linestrings (multilinestring) containing fences or objects that cannot be crossed unless there is nowhere else to go,
                                     when determining the shortest path.
    p_unit              (varchar2) - Oracle Unit of Measure eg unit=M.

RESULT

    linestring (t_geometry) - New linestring object which is contains the directed set of points defining the salesman's path.

             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_GEOMETRY Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Function that updates all coordinates that equal p_old_vertex with the supplied p_old_vertex.
    SELF.dprecision is used when comparing geometry point's XY ordinates to p_old_vertex's.
    Note that this version of ST_UpdateVertex allows for the update of the first and last vertex in a polygon thereby not invalidating it.

ARGUMENTS

    p_old_vertex (T_Vertex) - Original coordinate to be replaced.
    p_new_vertex (T_Vertex) - Replacement coordinate

RESULT

    geometry (geometry) - Underlying geometry with one or more coordinates replaced.

NAME

    T_PrecisionModel -- Object type holding ordinate precision values

DESCRIPTION

    JTS has a PrecisionModel class. With the use of NUMBER data type most of the JTS PrecisionModel types (eg FIXED, FLOATING_SINGLE etc)
    are not neded. What is needed is a single place one can record XY, Z and M ordinate precision (scale) values.

[ Top ] [ Types ]

NAME

    T_SEGMENT -- Object type representing a single 2-point linestring or single 3 point circular arc.

DESCRIPTION

    An object type that represents a single segment of a linestring.
    A segment is composed of a minimum of two T_VERTEX objects with Implied director (SEGMENT) from start to end.
    When a segment/segment contains a mid coordinate, that segment defines a circular arc.
    Includes Methods on that type.

21.4. T_SEGMENT/OrderBy [ Methods ]

[ Top ] [ T_SEGMENT ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    OrderBy -- Implements ordering function that can be used to sort a collection of T_Vertex objects.

SYNOPSIS

    Order Function OrderBy(p_segment in &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_SEGMENT)
            Return Number deterministic

ARGUMENTS

    p_segment (T_SEGMENT) - Order pair

DESCRIPTION

    This order by function allows a collection of T_Vertex objects to be sorted.
    For example in the ORDER BY clause of a SELECT statement.
    Comparison only uses ordinates: X, Y, Z and W.
    If precision is an issue, the two segments have to be rounded before this method can be used.

EXAMPLE

    With segments as (
      select T_SEGMENT(p_segment_id=> LEVEL,
                       p_startCoord=>T_Vertex(p_x=>dbms_random.value(0,level),

[ Top ] [ T_SEGMENT ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_AddCurveBetweenSegments -- Adds Circular Curve between two segments

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_AddCurveBetweenSegments(
                         p_segment   In &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Segment,
                         p_iVertex   in &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Verex default NULL,

                         p_unit      In varchar2      default NULL)
               Return mdsys.sdo_Geometry Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Adds Circular Curve between two segments. 
    The segments can be 2 point linestrings or 3 point circular curves.
    How the circular cuve is added depends on the parameters.
    1. If SELF and p_segment do not meet, and the intersectoin point between 
       SELF.endCoord and p_segment.startCoord is not provided, the intersection point
       is computed using ST_IntersectDetail.
    2. If p_radius is provided a circular curve is fitted between end/mid/start of radius p_radius.
    3. If p_iVertex, p_radius are not provided, the best circular arc is fittd.
    The implementation honours 3D and 4D shapes and averages these dimension values
    for the new vertices.

ARGUMENTS

    p_segment (T_Segment) -- Other, unconnected, segment
    p_iVertex  (T_Vertex) -- The intersectoin point between the two segments.
    p_radius     (number) -- Optional Radius.
    p_unit     (Varchar2) -- If NULL, the calculations are done using the underlying projection default units.
                             If an Oracle Unit of Measure is supplied (eg unit=M) that is value for the SRID,
                             this value is used when calculating the p_offset distance.

RESULT

    geometry (sdo_geometry) -- sdo_geometry with self and p_segment joined by circular arc.

NAME

    ST_CheckZ -- Checks Z values on linString or CircularArc

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_CheckZ
             Return Integer Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    The circularArc mathematics are considered to be 2D; 
    If a circularArc coordinate contains a Z ordinate, then its value has to be the same for all coordinates to remain in the same plane;
    If the segment is a lineString, its Z values don't need checking;.

RESULT

    BOOLEAN (INTEGER) -- 1 if segment's Z ordinates pass checking.

NOTES

    See also t_segment constructors that take a valid midCoord t_vertex parameter value.
    Where ST_CheckZ fails for a t_segment constructor, the error message is the same as for SQL Server Spatial.

[ Top ] [ T_SEGMENT ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_Closest -- Finds nearest point on line where supplied geometry comes closest (snap to).

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Closest(p_geometry  in mdys.sdo_geometry,
                               p_unit      In varchar2 DEFAULT NULL
                              )
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Vertex Deterministic

DESCRIPTION

    Finds nearest point on segment where supplied geometry comes closest (snap).
    Computations respect SRID and unit as uses SDO_GEOM.SDO_CLOSEST_POINTS.
    If SDO_GEOM.SDO_CLOSEST_POINTS fails, a result is calculated using planar arithmetic.
    This function handles fact that SDO_GEOM function does not support measured segments.

ARGUMENTS

    p_geometry (sdo_geometry) - Any sdo_geometry object.
    p_unit    (Varchar2) - Oracle Unit of Measure eg unit=M.

RESULT

    vertex    (T_Vertex) -- Nearest point on line supplied vertex is nearest to.

[ Top ] [ T_SEGMENT ] [ Functions ]

NAME

   ST_ComputeDeflectionAngle - Computes deflection angle between two segments.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_ComputeDeflectionAngle
             p_segment   t_segment default null,
           )
      Return Number

DESCRIPTION

    This function computes the deflection angle between two segments: SELF.start->(bearing)->SELF.end deflect p_segment.start->(bearing)->p_segment.end
    The deflection angle from the projection of the first line to the direction(bearing) of the first line.
    If the underlying segment is a circular arc, p_segment is ignored and a deflection angle is computed between the circular arc's three vertices.
    If p_segment is supplied its first coordinate is assumed to be the same as the last point of SELF; if not a "virtual" deflection is computed.
    If SELF.projected = 0 deflection angle is computed using geodetic math (see MDSYS.SDO_UTIL.BEARING_TILT_FOR_POINTS)

INPUTS

    p_segment (t_segment) - A linestring segment

RESULT

    angle        (number) - Deflection angle in degrees.

21.15. T_SEGMENT/ST_Densify [ Methods ]

[ Top ] [ T_SEGMENT ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_Densify -- Implements a basic geometry densification algorithm.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Densify(p_distance in number)
                               p_unit      IN varchar2 default NULL)
             Return mdsys.sdo_Geometry Deterministic

DESCRIPTION

    This function add vertices to an existing vertex-to-vertex described geometry segment.
    New vertices are added in such a way as to ensure that no two vertices will
    ever fall with SELF.PrecisionModel.XY.
    Also, because of the nature of the implementation there is no guarantee that the
    added vertices will be p_distance apart.
    The implementation prefers to balance the added vertices across a complete segment
    such that an even number are added. The final vertex separation will be
    BETWEEN p_distance AND p_distance * 2 .

    The implementation honours 3D and 4D shapes and averages these dimension values
    for the new vertices.

ARGUMENTS

    p_distance     (Number) -- The desired optimal distance between added vertices. Must be > SELF.tolerance.

RESULT

    geometry (sdo_geometry) -- Densified geometry.

EXAMPLE

NOTES

    Does not support CircularArc segments.

    Need to do so in all other objects (T_Geometry currently only supports SELF.precision not SELF.precision XY/Z/W).

21.24. T_SEGMENT/ST_Intersect [ Methods ]

[ Top ] [ T_SEGMENT ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_Intersect -- Computes intersection point between two 2D or 3D segments, returning a single intersection vertex.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_Intersect(p_segment   IN T_SEGMENT,
                                 p_unit      IN varchar2 default NULL)
             Return T_Vertex Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    This function computes the intersection point between the underlying 2D/3D segment and the provided 2D/3D segment.
    The intersection point computed is always physical ie a physical intersection or an empty vertex is returned if no intersection is computed.
    If segments are parallel an empty T_VERTEX is returned with T_VERTEX.id set to -9.
    Intersection between a linestring segment and circular arc segment is supported.
    However, the intersection between two circular arc segments is not yet supported.

INPUTS

    p_segment (T_Segment) -- Second segment for which an intersection with current is computed.
    p_unit     (varchar2) -- Oracle Unit of Measure eg unit=M.

RESULT

    Intersection (T_Vertex) -- The intersection point or empty point with id = -9 for parallel segments.

EXAMPLE

    select T_Segment(
             p_Segment_id => 0,

21.28. T_SEGMENT/ST_IntersectDetail [ Methods ]

[ Top ] [ T_SEGMENT ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_IntersectDetail -- Computes intersecton point between two 2D segments.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_IntersectDetail(p_segment   in T_SEGMENT,
                                       p_unit      in varchar2 default NULL)
             Return T_Vertex Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    This function computes the intersection point between the underlying segment and the provided segment.
    If segments are parallel an empty T_VERTEX is returned with T_VERTEX.id set to -9.
    The intersection point is always returned in startCoord of returned T_Segment.
    This version of ST_Intersect returns details about the nature of the Intersection.
    These details include the coding of the returned midCoord and endCoords as follows:
    1.  If intersection is physical both are set to startCoord (cf ST_Intersect).
    2.  If intersection is physical in SELF but virtual in p_segment, midCoord is set to physical intersection point, and endCoord is set to projected (virtual) point from p_segment.
    3.  If intersection is physical in p_segment but virtual in SELF, midCoord is set to projected (virtual) point from SELF, and endCoord is set to physical intersection point in p_segment.
    4.  If intersection is virtual in p_segment and SELF, midCoord and endCoord are both set to virtual point (same as startCoord).

ARGUMENTS

    p_segment  (T_Segment) -- Segment that is to be intersections with current object (SELF).
    p_unit      (varchar2) -- Oracle Unit of Measure for functions such as SDO_DISTANCE.

RESULT

    intersection (T_Vertex) -- The intersection point or empty point with id = -9 for parallel segments.

21.37. T_SEGMENT/ST_LineSubstring [ Methods ]

[ Top ] [ T_SEGMENT ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_LineSubstring -- Creates a new segment by cutting out the line defined by p_start_fraction and p_end_fraction.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_LineSubstring(p_start_fraction In Number   Default 0.0,
                                     p_end_fraction   In Number   Default 1.0,
                                     p_unit           In Varchar2 Default NULL)
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Segment Deterministic

DESCRIPTION

    Supplied with two ratio values between (0.0 -> 1.0), this function uses those values to find the
    points along its segment where they lie. If offset values of 0.0 and 1.0 are supplied, the underlying
    segment is returned. Otherwise, the function finds the position of the point defined by p_start_fraction
    and the point defined by p_end_fraction and creates a new segment based on those points.
    For circular arcs a new midCoord is created at position p_start_fraction + (p_end_fraction-p_start_Fraction)/2.0.
    If p_start_fraction == p_end_fraction a single point is returned in the T_Segment's startCoord with the others being NULL.
    The substring operation uses length and not LRS measure.
    Any Z and M ordinates are calculated by ratio.

ARGUMENTS

    p_start_fraction (Number) -- A value between 0 and 1, from the start vertex of the segment,
                                 which describes the position of the first point in the substring.
    p_end_fraction   (Number) -- A value > p_start_fraction, from the start vertex of the segment,
                                 which describes the position of the last point in the substring.
    p_unit         (Varchar2) -- If NULL, the calculations are done using the underlying projection default units.
                                 If an Oracle Unit of Measure is supplied (eg unit=M) that is value for the SRID,
                                 this value is used when calculating the p_offset distance.

RESULT

    segment  (T_Segment)  - - New segment between the start and end measures.

[ Top ] [ T_SEGMENT ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_OffsetBetween - Computes offset point on the bisector between two vertices.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_OffsetBetween(p_segment   in number,

             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Vertex Deterministic

DESCRIPTION

    Supplied with a second segment (p_segment), this function computes the bisector
    between the two segments and then creates a new vertex at a distance of p_offset
    from the intersection point.  If an offset value of 0.0 is supplied, the
    intersection point is returned. If the p_offset value is <> 0, the function computes a new
    position for the point at a distance of p_offset on the left (-ve) or right (+ve) side
    of the segment.
    The returned vertex's ordinate values are rounded using the supplied tolerance.

ARGUMENTS

    p_segment (number) - A segment that touches the current segment at one end point.
    p_offset       (number) - The perpendicular distance to offset the point generated using p_ratio.
                              A negative value instructs the function to offet the point to the left (start-end),
                              and a positive value to the right.
    p_unit       (varchar2) - If NULL, the calculations are done using the underlying projection default units.
                              If an Oracle Unit of Measure is supplied (eg unit=M) that is value for the SRID,
                            - this value is used when calculating the p_offset distance.

RESULT

    point        (T_Vertex) - New point on bisection point or along bisector line with optional perpendicular offset.

[ Top ] [ T_SEGMENT ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_OffsetPoint -- Creates a point described by a ratio along the
                      segment and with a perpendicular offset.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_OffsetPoint(p_ratio     in Number,
                                   p_offset    in Number,
                                   p_unit      In Integer Default NULL)
             Return &&INSTALL_SCHEMA..T_Vertex Deterministic

DESCRIPTION

    Supplied with a ratio value (0.0 -> 1.0), this function uses that value to find the
    point along its segment where it lies. If an offset value of 0.0 is supplied, the
    discovered point is returned. If the p_offset value is <> 0, the function computes a new
    position for the point at a distance of p_offset on the left (-ve) or right (+ve) side
    of the segment.
    The returned vertex's ordinate values are rounded using the supplied tolerance.

ARGUMENTS

    p_ratio     (number) - A value between 0 and 1, from the start vertex of the segment,
                           which describes the position of the point to be offset.
    p_offset    (number) - The perpendicular distance to offset the point generated using p_ratio.
                           A negative value instructs the function to offet the point to the left (start-end),
                           and a positive value to the right.
    p_unit    (VARCHAR2) - If NULL, the calculations are done using the underlying projection default units.
                           If an Oracle Unit of Measure is supplied (eg unit=M) that is value for the SRID,
                           this value is used when calculating the p_offset distance.

RESULT

    vertex     (T_VERTEX)   - New point on line with optional perpendicular offset.

DESCRIPTION

    An object type that represents a single vertex/coordinate of a geometry object.
    Includes Methods on that type.
  NOTE
    T_Vertex is provided for two reasons:
      1. The mdsys constructor for MDSYS.VERTEX_TYPE has changed with each version, making code stability an issue.
      2. This object allows for the provision of specific methods on a single vertex.

NAME

    ST_HasM -- Tests vertex to see if coordinates include a measure.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_HasM
             Return Integer Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Examines SDO_GTYPE (DLNN etc) to see if sdo_gtype has measure ordinate eg 3302 not 3002.
    If SDO_GTYPE is null, examines coordinates to see if W ordinate is not null.

RESULT

    BOOLEAN (INTEGER) -- 1 is measure ordinate exists, 0 otherwise.

EXAMPLE

    select t_vertex().ST_hasM() as eM,
           t_vertex(
             p_id => 0,
             p_x  => 0.0,

NAME

    ST_hasZ -- Tests vertex to see if coordinates include a Z ordinate.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_hasZ
             Return Integer Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Examines SDO_GTYPE (DLNN etc). If D position is 2 then vertex does not have a Z ordinate.
    If D position is 3 and measure ordinate position (L) is 0 then vertex has Z ordinate.
    If D position is 3 and measure ordinate position (L) is not equal to 0 then vertex does not have a Z ordinate.
    If D position is 4 and measure ordinate position (L) is equal to 0 or equal to D (4) then vertex has a Z ordinate.
    If D position is 4 and measure ordinate position (L) is equal to 3 then vertex does not have a Z ordinate.
    If SDO_GTYPE is null, examines Z and W ordinates of the vertex's coordinates to determine if vertex has Z ordinate.

RESULT

    BOOLEAN (INTEGER) -- 1 is has Z ordinate, 0 otherwise.

EXAMPLE

    select t_vertex().ST_hasZ() as eZ,

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_SdoGeometry
             Return MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    The encoding of the returned SDO_GEOMETRY object depends on the dimension of the vertex
    supplied using p_dims or SELF.ST_Dims() if p_dims is null.
    This can be best seen in the source code from T_Vertex Type Body at the end of this documentation.

PARAMETERS

    p_dims in integer default null - A dimension value that will override SELF.ST_Dims() eg return 2D from a 3D vertex.

RESULT

DESCRIPTION

    When extracting vertices from a geometry into T_Vertex objects via a TABLE function call to T_GEOMETRY.T_Vertices()
    it is handy to have a method which allows access to the resulting T_VERTEX row as a single object.
    In a sense this method allows access similar to t.COLUMN_VALUE for atmoic datatype access from TABLE functions.

24.24. T_VERTEX/ST_To3D [ Methods ]

[ Top ] [ T_VERTEX ] [ Methods ]

NAME

    ST_To3D -- Adds Z attribute, adjusts sdo_gtype.

SYNOPSIS

    Member Function ST_To3D(p_keep_measure in integer,
                            p_default_z    in number)
             Return T_Vertex Deterministic,

DESCRIPTION

    Changes dimensionality of underlying T_Vertex object.
    If Vertex is 3D the vertex is returned unchanged unless the vertex is additionally measured
    and p_keep_measure = 1. In that case, the Z ordinate will be set to the W (measure) value
    and the W (measure) value set to NULL.
    If Vertex is 2D the vertex is changed to 3D and the Z ordinate set to p_default_z.
    If the Vertex is 4D, any W (measure) is removed unless p_keep_measure is set to 1;
    If p_keep_measure is 1, the W value is copied to the Z ordinate and the W ordinate set to null.
    The sdo_gtype of the returned vertex is always 3001.

PARAMETERS

    p_keep_measure (integer) - If vertex has a measure value, this parameter instructs the function to keep it.
    p_default_z    (number)  - If a Z value has to be created (eg in case of 2D vertex being converted to 3D),
                               this parameter holds the new value for that ordinate.

RESULT

    vertex (T_VERTEX)
