# ST_INTERSECTION¶

Given two input GEOGRAPHY objects, returns a GEOGRAPHY object that represents the set of points that are common to both input objects (i.e. the intersection of the two objects).

## Syntax¶

ST_INTERSECTION( <geography_expression_1> , <geography_expression_2> )


## Arguments¶

geography_expression_1

A GEOGRAPHY object.

geography_expression_2

A GEOGRAPHY object.

## Returns¶

The function returns a value of type GEOGRAPHY.

## Usage Notes¶

• If any vertex of one input object is on the boundary of the other input object (excluding the vertices), the output might or might not include that vertex point.

For example, suppose that geography_expression_1 is POINT(1 1) and geography_expression_2 is LINESTRING(1 0, 1 2). In this case, geography_expression_1 is on the boundary of geography_expression_2 but is not a vertex of it.

In this example, the expected output is POINT(1 1), but the actual output might be an empty geography (represented by NULL).

To help to detect and work around these cases, one potential idea is to use ST_DWITHIN to determine if the minimum distance between the two input objects is 0. For example, you can check if a point lies on top of a LineString by checking if the minimum distance between the two objects is zero:

SELECT TO_GEOGRAPHY('POLYGON((0 0, 1 0, 2 1, 1 2, 2 3, 1 4, 0 4, 0 0))') AS polygon,
TO_GEOGRAPHY('POINT(0 2)') AS point,
ST_DWITHIN(polygon, point, 0) AS point_is_on_top_of_polygon,
ST_INTERSECTION(polygon, point);


This statement produces the following output:

+--------------------------------------------+------------+----------------------------+---------------------------------+
| POLYGON                                    | POINT      | POINT_IS_ON_TOP_OF_POLYGON | ST_INTERSECTION(POLYGON, POINT) |
|--------------------------------------------+------------+----------------------------+---------------------------------|
| POLYGON((0 0,1 0,2 1,1 2,2 3,1 4,0 4,0 0)) | POINT(0 2) | True                       | NULL                            |
+--------------------------------------------+------------+----------------------------+---------------------------------+


The function is not guaranteed to produce normalised and/or minimal results. For example, an output could consist of a LineString containing several points that actually forms just one straight segment.

## Examples¶

The following example returns a GEOGRAPHY object that represents the intersection of two input GEOGRAPHY objects:

ALTER SESSION SET GEOGRAPHY_OUTPUT_FORMAT = 'WKT';

SELECT ST_INTERSECTION(
TO_GEOGRAPHY('POLYGON((0 0, 1 0, 2 1, 1 2, 2 3, 1 4, 0 4, 0 0))'),
TO_GEOGRAPHY('POLYGON((3 0, 3 4, 2 4, 1 3, 2 2, 1 1, 2 0, 3 0))'))
AS intersection_of_objects;


This example produces the following output:

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| INTERSECTION_OF_OBJECTS                                                                                                                 |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| MULTIPOLYGON(((1.5 0.5000571198,2 1,1.5 1.500171359,1 1,1.5 0.5000571198)),((1.5 2.500285599,2 3,1.5 3.500399839,1 3,1.5 2.500285599))) |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
