ST_Disjoint - Amazon Redshift
SyntaxArgumentsReturn typeExamples

Amazon Redshift will no longer support the creation of new Python UDFs starting November 1, 2025. If you would like to use Python UDFs, create the UDFs prior to that date. Existing Python UDFs will continue to function as normal. For more information, see the blog post .

ST_Disjoint

ST_Disjoint returns true if the 2D projections of the two input geometries have no points in common.

Syntax

ST_Disjoint(geom1, geom2)

Arguments

geom1

A value of data type GEOMETRY or an expression that evaluates to a GEOMETRY type.

geom2

A value of data type GEOMETRY or an expression that evaluates to a GEOMETRY type.

Return type

BOOLEAN

If geom1 or geom2 is null, then null is returned.

If geom1 and geom2 don't have the same value for the spatial reference system identifier (SRID), then an error is returned.

If geom1 or geom2 is a geometry collection, then an error is returned.

Examples

The following SQL checks if the first polygon is disjoint from the second polygon. 

SELECT ST_Disjoint(ST_GeomFromText('POLYGON((0 0,10 0,10 10,0 10,0 0),(2 2,2 5,5 5,5 2,2 2))'), ST_Point(4, 4));
