[postgis-users] PostGIS new geometry type with defined precision?

[Darafei "Komяpa" Praliaskouski]

Hi,

Can you describe how the operations like Intersection should behave in such
type? E.g. if you have a type with 0 decimals (say), and have a line going
from (0,0) to (1,1) intersect with a line going from (1, 0) to (0, 1) -
what is the intersection point that is going to be reported? Will that
ST_Intersection in turn ST_Intersects=true with original point?

There are a number of such requests across the years but nobody seems to
propose a working algebra for such type, and without it it's not going to
get implemented.
