STIntersects (geometry)

STIntersects (geometry)#

Returns 1 if a geometry instance intersects another geometry instance. Returns 0 if it does not.

Syntax#

.STIntersects ( other_geometry )

Arguments#

other_geometry

Is another geometry instance to compare against the instance on which STIntersects() is invoked.

Return type#

bit

Remarks#

This method always returns null if the spatial reference IDs (SRIDs) of the geometry instances do not match.

Example#

Use STIntersects() to determine if two geometry instances intersect each other.

DECLARE @g geometry;
DECLARE @h geometry;
SET @g = geometry::STGeomFromText('LINESTRING(0 2, 2 0, 4 2)', 0);
SET @h = geometry::STGeomFromText('POINT(1 1)', 0);
SELECT @g.STIntersects(@h);
