Fetching spatial data in internal format:
Fetching geometry values using internal format can be useful in table-to-table transfers:
CREATE TABLE geom2 (g GEOMETRY) SELECT g FROM geom;Fetching spatial data in WKT format:
The
ST_AsText()function converts a geometry from internal format to a WKT string.SELECT ST_AsText(g) FROM geom;Fetching spatial data in WKB format:
The
ST_AsBinary()function converts a geometry from internal format to aBLOBcontaining the WKB value.SELECT ST_AsBinary(g) FROM geom;
