[postgis-users] splitting a linestring with points

[Olivier Leprêtre]

Hi, thanks for your answers,

 

I didn't interpret well what st_split would do, I thought st_split(line, set of n points) would returns n+1 set of lines segments but in fact it returns 2 n lines, input line being cut n times. So I have to search another way, likely as Nicolas suggested with st_lineLocatePoint and st_lineSubstring, or using st_split one point at a time.

Beware that hitting a line with a point can be tricky in terms of accuracy. Unless the point is snapped to one of the line's vertices, if you zoom enough, it will not be on top of the line. That may be the reason why you are not getting the desired results.

Hi Martin

I hoped but it's doesn't with results from st_collectionExtract(st_Split())

st_dump would make it possible, no?

select st_astext((st_dump('MULTILINESTRING((0 0, 10 10), (20 20, 30 30))')).geom);
         st_astext
-------------------------
  LINESTRING(0 0,10 10)
  LINESTRING(20 20,30 30)
(2 rows)
