ST_EQUALS

Syntax

ST_EQUALS(g1,g2)

Description

Returns 1 or 0 to indicate whether geometry g1 is spatially equal to geometry g2.

ST_EQUALS() uses object shapes, while EQUALS(), based on the original MySQL implementation, uses object bounding rectangles.

Examples

SET @g1 = ST_GEOMFROMTEXT('LINESTRING(174 149, 176 151)');

SET @g2 = ST_GEOMFROMTEXT('LINESTRING(176 151, 174 149)');

SELECT ST_EQUALS(@g1,@g2);
