Name

ST_AsMARC21 — Returns geometry as a MARC21/XML record with a geographic datafield (034).

Synopsis

+ text `*`+ST_AsMARC21*+ (` geometry `+geom , text format='hdddmmss' );

Description

This function returns a MARC21/XML record with Coded Cartographic Mathematical Data representing the bounding box of a given geometry. The format parameter allows to encode the coordinates in subfields $d,$e,$f and $g in all formats supported by the MARC21/XML standard. Valid formats are:

  • cardinal direction, degrees, minutes and seconds (default): hdddmmss

  • decimal degrees with cardinal direction: hddd.dddddd

  • decimal degrees without cardinal direction: ddd.dddddd

  • decimal minutes with cardinal direction: hdddmm.mmmm

  • decimal minutes without cardinal direction: dddmm.mmmm

  • decimal seconds with cardinal direction: hdddmmss.sss

The decimal sign may be also a comma, e.g. hdddmm,mmmm.

The precision of decimal formats can be limited by the number of characters after the decimal sign, e.g. hdddmm.mm for decimal minutes with a precision of two decimals.

This function ignores the Z and M dimensions.

LOC MARC21/XML versions supported:

Availability: 3.3.0

Note

This function does not support non lon/lat geometries, as they are not supported by the MARC21/XML standard (Coded Cartographic Mathematical Data).

Note

The MARC21/XML Standard does not provide any means to annotate the spatial reference system for Coded Cartographic Mathematical Data, which means that this information will be lost after conversion to MARC21/XML.

Examples

Converting a POINT to MARC21/XML formated as hdddmmss (default)

                SELECT ST_AsMARC21('SRID=4326;POINT(-4.504289 54.253312)'::geometry);

Converting a GEOMETRYCOLLECTION to MARC21/XML formated in decimal minutes. The geometries order in the MARC21/XML output correspond to their order in the collection.
