At a guess, you are asking for the count(*) from both tables... you only want 
the count from table 1.


SELECT COUNT(Table_1.wkb_geometry) FROM Table_1,Table_2 WHERE 
ST_Intersects(Table_1.wkb_geometry,Table_2.wkb_geometry);

Subject: [postgis-users] Counting intersecting polygons


Hi All,
I have 2 tables containing polygons in same general area. What I want is the 
count of polygons in the first table (Table_1, represented by purple) that 
intersect with polygons in the 2nd (Table_2, represented by green).
[Screenshot from 2019-05-23 13-33-24.png]
For the above example, I want the output as 1. I have tried -
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Table_1,Table_2 WHERE 
ST_Intersects(Table_1.wkb_geometry,Table_2.wkb_geometry);

This command returns the answer 3 which doesn't work for me.
Could someone please suggest relevant command.
Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Sarthak Vijay
