Обсуждение: PostGIS return multiple points
Hi
I have a PostGIS table and I wish to get the location/name of multiple
points at once the command for selecting one point is
select PolyName from MyPolygones where st_Contains(the_geom,
GeomFromText('point($LAT $LONG)4326');
where $LAT $LONG are perl varables
So how can i do this if iI have 100 points without hitting the database 100
times?

hey,
I haven't used postgis yet, however,
assuming the normal rules still apply and st_Contains returns
true/false:
SELECT ... WHERE st_Contains(point1) OR st_Contains(point2) OR ...
or using the IN statement:
SELECT ... WHERE true IN (st_Contains(point1),st_Contains(point2),...)
That should give you a list of all polynames.
The trick is figuring out what polyname goes with which point. But I
leave that as an exercise to the reader, as it's tea time.
regards,
Maarten

Just some thoughts:- create a multipoint with 100 vertices instead of a single point and query once with st_Intersect
- prepare the single-point-query and execute the prepared query 100 times with the changing coordinates
