Re: [postgis-users] problems with _st_distance() function on queries returning more than one row

Move up to the latest patch revision of postgis, the 2.1.0 release definitely had a few subtle issues with geography distance of the sort you are describing. P. On Thu, Jan 8, 2015 at 2:09 PM, Hartranft, Robert M. (GSFC-423.0)[RAYTHEON COMPANY] wrote: > Hi All, > > I am hoping someone here has e

You have created an index on your geometry column using something like CREATE INDEX myindex ON mytable (geom); This has created a b-tree index, which is limited in the object size it can handle (and won't answer spatial questions efficiently in any event). Drop it, and replace with a GIST inde

Hugues:  Yes, that was it.  When I initially created this column, I used 4269.  I was following an example, and this is what was used.I recreated the table using the default (not specifying) and did the same with my query.  This solved my issue! Thanks for your help!   Hopefully I won't have any

Hi, You're using different srid between your geometries. It means you're using different coordinate systems. I don't know how this thing is managed by geoJSON but if your table uses a single srid (you can ensure that by using type in postgis 2 or constraint in pgis 1.5) you can use st_transfo

Hugues:   Thanks for the info!  I think I'm getting close.  Now it seems to work ~sometimes~.   It will error if any rows would be returned.  But it will not throw an error if no rows would be returned.   I verified with a few queries that I know the results beforehand, and was able to determine

Hi Joseph, If you take a look at the error returned, you can read that the problem comes from the ST_Intersects function which works with geometries but not with text. I think, if your geoJSON is right formatted, you can just remove the ST_AsText part and it should work. However it also
