[postgis-users] Geometry Functions?

To add you should check which version you have installed
 
By running the following
 
select postgis_full_version();
 
If it returns something lower than 1.2.2 then you should use the names
without the ST in front of them.
 
I developed 2 cheatsheets.  
 
One is for 1.2.1
http://www.bostongis.com/postgis_quickguide_1_2_1.bqg
 
and one is for 1.3.1
http://www.bostongis.com/postgis_quickguide.bqg
 
I'm still fleshing out the examples and gaps in both.  Hopefully these
will be of benefit to you.  
 
Thanks,
Regina

Hello Chris, 

Welcome!

Try calling them without the ST_ in front of it:

SELECT transform(simplify(transform(the_geom, 2249), 500),4326) from
neighborhoods

As described on:

Good luck!

	Hi, very new to this, but I'm trying to call functions like
ST_Simplify and I'm getting errors telling me that the function doesn't
exist.
	
	I installed Postgres and PostGIS using the binary windows
installers.  What did I miss?
