Hello, yes, I mean biggest in terms of area. I more than one rectangle
could be found, only one should be returned, not important which one.
Thanks, Tom

You will have to define "biggest" more precisely. Biggest in terms of area?
There might be many inner rectangles having the same biggest area. How to choose one over
the other?

Subject: [postgis-users] biggest rectangle contained within another polygon
Hello, I need to calculate the biggest rectangle which is contained
within another polygon. A sort of inner envelope or inner bounding box.
I found this interesting article:
http://cgm.cs.mcgill.ca/~athens/cs507/Projects/2003/DanielSud/
Is it possible in Postgis?
I have attached a picture with a example of what I need.
Tom
