[postgis-users] Newbie having trouble with Multipolygon file and ST_Within

[Alexandre Neto]

Hello,

I'm not sure why, but that also happens to me sometimes when I see my data
in pgadmin. Nevertheless, like you said, all geometries are shown in GIS,
and it never give me any problems at all.

Take a look at the answer for this question:

Hope it helps,

Alexandre Neto
