ST_Intersects

Applies to ❌ Open Source Edition   ✅ Express Edition   ✅ Professional Edition   ✅ Enterprise Edition

This predicate checks if a geometry intersects another geometry. For example:

create.select(
  field(stIntersects(
    stGeomFromText("LINESTRING (-3 -1, -1 1)"),
    stGeomFromText("LINESTRING (-1 -1, -3 1)")
  )),
  field(stIntersects(
    stGeomFromText("LINESTRING (1 -1, 1 1)"),
    stGeomFromText("LINESTRING (3 -1, 3 1)")
  ))
).fetch();

The result being, for example

+---------------+---------------+
| ST_Intersects | ST_Intersects |
+---------------+---------------+
| true          | false         |
+---------------+---------------+
