[postgis-users] Select Distance in 3d

Eehab,
Unfortunately I don't think there is.  If you are just talking about
points, then one work around that comes to mind is to use ST_Length3D -
something like below
 
SELECT ST_length3d(ST_MakeLine('POINT(1 2 3)', 'POINT(4 5 6)') )As d3, 
ST_Length2d(ST_MakeLine('POINT(1 2)', 'POINT(4 5)')) as d2;
 
So in your case 
 
SELECT asKml("FireFighterO".the_geom) FROM "FireFighterO" , igfplan 
WHERE igfplan.id=2 AND ST_DWithin("FireFighterO".the_geom,
igfplan.the_geom, 120) AND
AND ST_Length3d(ST_MakeLine("FireFighterO".the_geom, igfplan.the_geom))
< 120;
 
The ST_DWithin is to force the use of indexes because your current query
as it was written will not use indexes.  
 
True ST_DWithin will only use the 2d distance, but its my assumption
that if the 2D distance is not within 120, then the 3D definitely will
not be either.
 
Hope that helps,
Regina

Hello, 

I need to select the points that are within 3d distance not just only in
2d distance. is there is anything for 3d distance like 3d extent or 3d
box.
below is my query.


SELECT asKml("FireFighterO".the_geom) FROM "FireFighterO" , igfplan
WHERE igfplan.id=2
AND distance("FireFighterO".the_geom, igfplan.the_geom) < 120

Thanks

> Though I can't say I have ever tried using disjoint since there are
much more efficient ways of checking for disjointedness than using
disjoint. Buffer(..0) I have used a fair amount though and haven't run
into any issues. Though I have had some issues when using - values for
buffer.

> Which version of Geos are you running? I suppose you could be running
an unstable version of Geos. The latest stable release of geos is 3.0.0
which you can determine if you are running or not with the command.

3.0.0 rcs might have a bug with start point and end_point which was
fixed in 3.0.0
