Name

ST_3DPerimeter — Returns the 3D perimeter of a polygonal geometry.

Synopsis

float +`*`+ST_3DPerimeter*(`geometry `geomA`)`;

Description

Returns the 3-dimensional perimeter of the geometry, if it is a polygon or multi-polygon. If the geometry is 2-dimensional, then the 2-dimensional perimeter is returned.

check This function supports 3d and will not drop the z-index.

check This method implements the SQL/MM specification. SQL-MM ISO/IEC 13249-3: 8.1, 10.5

Changed: 2.0.0 In prior versions this used to be called ST_Perimeter3D

Examples

Perimeter of a slightly elevated polygon in the air in Massachusetts state plane feet
