Spatial Operators
OpenGIS proposes a number of other functions that can produce geometries. They are designed to implement spatial operators.
These functions are not implemented in MySQL.
Buffer(g,d)Returns a geometry that represents all points whose distance from the geometry value
gis less than or equal to a distance ofd.ConvexHull(g)Returns a geometry that represents the convex hull of the geometry value
g.Difference(g1,g2)Returns a geometry that represents the point set difference of the geometry value
g1withg2.Intersection(g1,g2)Returns a geometry that represents the point set intersection of the geometry values
g1withg2.SymDifference(g1,g2)Returns a geometry that represents the point set symmetric difference of the geometry value
g1withg2.Union(g1,g2)Returns a geometry that represents the point set union of the geometry values
