Hi,

 

I think ST_Intersects will meet your needs :

 

SELECT  zone,gid,state,name,ST_Asgeojson( geom ) 

FROM polys 

WHERE ST_Intersects(ST_GeomFromText('POLYGON((-109 42,-108 42, -108 43; -109 
43, -109 42))', 4269), geom)

 

Hugues.

lie in the polygons

 

Something I did notice though-- it seems that if the input polygon completely 
surrounds a polygon stored in my database, it is not included in the result.  I 
read something about this here: http://postgis.net/docs/ST_Overlaps.html

 

  "Returns TRUE if the Geometries "spatially overlap". By that we mean they 
intersect, but one does not completely contain another."

 

I do need the polygons which are completely contained as well.  Can this be 
done?

 

Thanks again for the help.  I'm getting there!

 

Regards,

Joseph Spenner

Rémi:

  Yes, that worked perfectly.  Thanks!

  My input poly will be stored in another database (maybe just another table).  
 It would be nice to perform the query all on 1 line (get the poly and use it 
for the query), but I can query the first table first to get the input poly, 
then use that for the 2nd query without too much difficulty.


Thanks again for the responses!

Something like this?



 

SELECT  zone,gid,state,name,ST_Asgeojson( geom ) 



FROM polys 

WHERE ST_Overlaps(ST_GeomFromText('POLYGON((-109 42,-108 42, -108 43; -109 43, 
-109 42))', 4269), geom)=TRUE;

 

Cheers,

Hello,

 

Maybe I don’t understand your problem very well but I think your query for 
points should work with a polygon using ST_GeomFromText 
(http://www.postgis.org/docs/ST_GeomFromText.html) for your input polygon or a 
subquery if it stored into your DB.

 

Hugues.

Objet : [postgis-users] Returning polygons if any of a polygon input points lie 
in the polygons

 

Hello, I'm trying to perform a query which will return any polygons which have 
any points in common with an input polygon.

 

So, if I have Polygon A.

In my database, I have several other polygons stored.

 

I want to submit a query with Polygon A as the input, which will return all of 
the polygons in my database which have any points in common with Polygon A.

 

Can this be done?


I found this:

http://postgis.net/docs/ST_Overlaps.html

 

But from what I can tell, it only returns a T or F.   I need to fetch the 
actual polygons if T.

 

I'm currently able to query with points as input:

 

select zone,gid,state,name,ST_Asgeojson( geom ) from polys where 
ST_Intersects(ST_PointFromText('POINT(-109 42)', 4269), geom);

 

But now I have a need to use polygons as input.

 

Any help would be great.

 

Thanks!

 

Regards,

Joseph Spenner
