ST_IsValid

ST_IsValid was added in MariaDB 12.0.

Syntax

ST_IsValid(g)

Description

Given a geometry input, returns 1 if the argument is geometrically valid according to the OGC specifications, 0 if the argument is not geometrically valid.

Unlike ST_Validate, requires valid GIS data, or ERROR 3037 (22023): Invalid GIS data provided to function st_isvalid is returned.

Examples

SELECT ST_IsValid(ST_GeomFromText('LINESTRING (0 0, 1 1)'));
+------------------------------------------------------+
| ST_IsValid(ST_GeomFromText('LINESTRING (0 0, 1 1)')) |
+------------------------------------------------------+
|                                                    1 |
+------------------------------------------------------+

SELECT ST_IsValid(ST_GeomFromText('LINESTRING (0 0, 0 0)'));
+------------------------------------------------------+
| ST_IsValid(ST_GeomFromText('LINESTRING (0 0, 0 0)')) |
+------------------------------------------------------+
|                                                    0 |
+------------------------------------------------------+

A POINT requires both x and y co-ordinates:

SELECT ST_IsValid(ST_GeomFromText('POINT (0)'));  
ERROR 3037 (22023): Invalid GIS data provided to function st_isvalid.
