User's Guide Prev Chapter 3. Next Geometric Types Geometric types represent two-dimensional spatial objects. The most fundamental type, the point, forms the basis for all of the other types. A rich set of functions and operators is available to perform various geometric operations such as scaling, translation, rotation, and determining intersections.
Point Points are the fundamental two-dimensional building block for geometric types.
The y-axis coordinate as a floating point number. The endpoints of the line segment. Box Boxes are represented by pairs of points which are opposite corners of the box. Opposite corners of the box. Boxes are output using the first syntax.
