ST_Equals
Applies to ❌ Open Source Edition ✅ Express Edition ✅ Professional Edition ✅ Enterprise Edition
This predicate checks if a geometry is "spatially equal" to another geometry (i.e. the ordering of points is irrelevant for this equality). For example:
create.select(field(stEquals(
stGeomFromText("LINESTRING (-1 -1, 1 1)"),
stGeomFromText("LINESTRING (1 1, -1 -1)")
))).fetch();
The result being, for example
+-----------+ | ST_Equals | +-----------+ | true | +-----------+
