[postgis-users] GEOS intersection - geometry outside boundries & extents

Mon Mar 22 16:52:07 PST 2004

I’m trying to calculate the area and view the different soil types that
might be within a parcel. I’m using the “intersection(geometry,geometry)”
GOES module to do this in Postgis. When I perform then operation resulting
geometry is partially the intersection then it shoots off the image outside
of the extents provided. I’m running PostGIS 8.1 with Postgresql 7.4.1 and a
CVS version of Mapserver that is about a month old. ( I needed the fixes to
Styles – getStyles). I’m not receiving any error messages, so please let me
know what I can provide you to help debug the problem.

My logic and SQL commands are as follows:

1) A point is selected on the parcel to perform the soil analysis
SELECT tag, the_geom  FROM  jcparcels WHERE the_geom &&
GeometryFromText('BOX3D(2191224.56399557   641014.375, 2193496.77138443
642751.25619 )',1) AND Distance(GeometryFromText('POINT(2192334.17418821
641952.976863896)',1),the_geom) < 1

2) The parcel found is used to calculate the extents to contain just this
parcel.
SELECT extent(the_geom) FROM  jcparcels WHERE tag='15080011'

3) This parcel extent is then used to get all of the soil segments that are
contained in this parcel
SELECT gid  FROM  jcsoil WHERE the_geom &&
GeometryFromText('BOX3D(2191620.58538 641014.375,2193100.75
642751.25619)',1)

4) Each of these soil segments are passed in a loop to the “intersection”
command to obtain the intersecting geometry of the soil segment and parcel.
SELECT intersection(the_geom,(SELECT the_geom FROM  jcsoil WHERE
gid='10834' ))  FROM  jcparcels WHERE the_geom &&
GeometryFromText('BOX3D(2191620.58538 641014.375,2193100.75
642751.25619)',1) AND Distance(GeometryFromText('POINT(2192334.17418821
641952.976863896)',1),the_geom) < 1

My results that are outside of the extent, soil, and parcel geometry
boundries
