MySQL/MariaDB Spatial Support Matrix

This table shows when different spatial features were introduced into MySQL and MariaDB.

My	MySQL
MDB	MariaDB
x	This feature is supported.
MBR	This feature is present, but operates on the Minimum Bounding Rectangle instead of the actual shape.
d	This feature is present, but has been deprecated and will be removed in a future version.
*	This feature is present, but may not work the way you expect.
-	This feature is not supported.
