ST_LongestLine¶
Introduction: Returns the LineString geometry representing the maximum distance between any two points from the input geometries.
Format: ST_LongestLine(geom1: Geometry, geom2: Geometry)
Since: v1.6.1
SQL Example:
SELECT ST_LongestLine(
ST_GeomFromText("POLYGON ((30 10, 40 40, 20 40, 10 20, 30 10))"),
ST_GeomFromText("POLYGON ((10 20, 30 30, 40 20, 30 10, 10 20))")
)
Output:
LINESTRING (40 40, 10 20)
